AAAARGH! I am so STUPID!

It's this bloody flu... but today when I went to the grocery store, I got $60 cash-back from my Interac transaction, picked up my bags of groceries, and walked out... WITHOUT taking the $60. >.<

How can anyone BE so stupid?

So I called FoodFare, and the manager said they can't do anything about it tonight but will know more after they do cash-out tomorrow morning. He advised me to call back at about 11 am. Hopefully the cashier didn't just pocket the money... I try to remain optimistic about human nature, but still... *shakes head*

Oh, and did a bit of research today thanks to elaryn's tip about diabetes and the flu, and it's not pretty. Ketoacidosis can set in pretty quick, as well as the infection causing an overall elevation of blood sugar levels. I had no idea... 0_o. So I've updated George on what to keep an eye out for (a fruity smell to my breath, sudden onset of confusion, etc), and will have to head into the emergency ward if I start vomitting, having diarrhea, or experiencing abdominal pain.

On the other hand... I just put on some apple juice to mull with spices for the folks coming to ritual tonight, and the whole house smells amazing. Unfortunately Terri had to cancel this afternoon, but three others are still attending as far as I know. *hugs Terri, if necessary through Roger if he's the one reading this post*

Ugh, I left some of the Christmas gifts I had just bought on a bench at the mall a few weeks ago, and of course they were stolen. I didn't blog about it because I felt like such an utter moron, but now I can see that perhaps my humiliation can serve a purpose. So remember, this stuff happens to everyone now and then.

I hope you feel better soon. *hugs*

I know that when I have the flu my brain power is usually zip. Considering how bad the flu you have sounds, I think you should cut yourself some slack about the $60. Take extra good care of yourself. I hope you feel better soon.

I've done stuff sillier than that, Laurie, trust me..I hope you get your $$$$ back.
Feel better soon!
