Nice lazy Saturday afternoon

Had to take Polly in to the vet today for a followup, since she's had issues lately with her thyroid levels and just being an old lady kitty in general. That went only marginally well, since they were only able to get the blood sample they wanted and couldn't weigh her at all or get a sample for urinalysis--since Polly still isn't too old a kitty to pitch a fit at the vet's. The more interesting vet stuff today actually had to do with a billing problem--it turned out that on that last big appointment she had back in June, I wound up getting somebody else's bill and paid about thirty dollars more than I should have. They didn't figure it out until NOW, when they were going through the computer to send out bills and found that my charge hadn't been paid. So I called them up to ask them WTF, and once I actually got down there with the invoice for what I'd paid and the invoice on the bill they'd sent me (since I was going down there anyway for Polly's appointment, I figured I'd bring the invoices with me), we realized that my paid invoice had somebody else's name on it.
Oops.
So they credited the difference to my account and now will have to contact the other client and explain that that charge hadn't actually gotten paid.
It's been a week for screwups of this nature, too. I realized that the rent check I thought I was missing from one tenant for last month's rent actually was missing from a different tenant entirely, which necessitated me going through the rent books with a fine-toothed comb. We sent apologetic email to the guy who'd actually paid his rent, and asked the other one if he'd please check his records and see if he sent us a check. Here's hoping we can get that straightened out.
Meanwhile, although lameness is keeping me from going to enjoy late-night Big Screen Raiders of the Lost Ark tonight,
mamishka and I have mutually pledged to make up for it in two weeks when that theater runs Last Crusade. Which will be the last weekend before
solarbird,
spazzkat, and I take off for Worldcon and Disneyland, so that'll be a good time to go!
