God-fucking-damnit.

It's begun again.

The wave of shitty things happening all at once has begun it's path upon Jessica.

So check it out.

My cell phone got shut off, again.

I was trying to sleep and one of my friends called at like 11-something last night. So I ignored it and tried to sleep.

Then I got a text msg from Sprint saying my phone had been shut off. That my balance was $190.00.

Fuck.

I hate this shit. I just paid $90 dollars to my bill last week!! It's a brand new billing cycle!! How is it already shut off and at $190.00?!?!?! It feels like I just can't get ahead of things.

I swear to god.

So yah, Remember my previous post? Well up the amount a bit.

I need to borrow :: edit:: $100.00 :: edit :: to get my phone turned back on. I get paid on the 1st and the 15th and can pay whoever back on those dates.

Help.

Ryan. Trust me. This is the first time it's been an issue.

I budget just fine.

What happened in this case is this:

I went over my minutes last month. Sprint has a spending limit of $125.00.

I paid my bill last month. The amount I didn't pay carried over.

Then they charged my usual monthly amount, which I didn't know they did so quickly after the billing cycle started, and added it to the carried over amount.

I thought I had more time.

That's all the the issue is.

It's not a crisis to crisis issue.

And truthfully I didn't even expect help from anyone. I just thought I'd ask, the worst that would happen is people would say no or just not respond.

ok. just trying to help. I'm not trying to attack you.

Most people can't budget.

No worries, didn't see it as an attack. And I appreciate the advice.
