Last year when closing on the house someone from the mortgage company grossly underestimated the amount to be paid for property tax last year....let's just say the amount was off by about $5,000! Now, because someone was a complete idiot we are negative in escrow and will have to pay a whole lot more each month to the mortgage company. It boggles my mind that some "professional" made a huge mistake that is now causing a huge headache...and what can we do about it? Absolutely nothing except get the town to tell the mortgage company what our real property tax will be next year. Only thing is that the town won't know until Dec...
A similar situation has come up with the water compnay as well. For that last few months the bills have only been estimates, but now they demand more money because someone actually decided to do their job and read the meter. I wouldn't have to worry about shelling out more money now if people could just do their jobs and get actual numbers before they send out bills.
It must be hard to actually do your job properly!

Now, on to more random and less stressful things -
I finished watching Spartacus through Netflix and my opinion definitely changed for the better about the series on or around episode 9. As a whole I thoroughly enjoyed it and I do hope there is a second season in the works. I've moved on to Weeds. Luckily their are quite a few seasons to get caught up on.
I am also caught up to season 4 of the Tudors. It wasn't until after watching the 3rd season I realized the 4th and final season isn't even out on DVD yet. I hate waiting for DVDs to come out...I've been waiting so long for season 4 of Dexter but in a few weeks I'll finally be satisfied!
