Tears.
I probably just had the worst experience of my life. I went to a cafe near the twins music lesson with Raphaelle to get a coffee and juice before it was time to pick them up. Thanks to my wonderful bank, when it was time to pay, my card got declined. I left Raphaelle at the cafe and walked across the street to the ATM where again my card was declined, despite me having well over $500 in it. Then the girls got out of music so I walked them to the cafe, while they freaked out I left their sister there. I know looking back it was probably dumb to leave a 5 year old alone for 5 minutes but in my defense I left her with the nice older lady who owned the place. When I got back to the cafe I had to ask the twins to borrow money to pay our 4 Euro tab. Then I broke down and started crying in front of all of them. They must have thought I was crazy. So my love affair with America's Credit Union is now over. Despite my love for the super attractive banker man, I hate them. Before leaving, I informed them I would be in Dijon, FR for the next year, so 'don't think my card is stolen and turn it off.' But thats exactly what they did. I am so mad right now. And will only have ACU to blame if I loose my job over this. I wish I was home right now so I could go to the bank myself and chew them out, so mum I'm leaving it up to you to tell them how mad I am. Make me proud.
