A bit ironic
In an attempt to be more careful with my money and to consolidate it a bit, I closed my savings account and transferred the money from there, as well as the cash my parents gave me and a paycheck, into my checking account. I figured it would be easiest to keep track of it all that way. Not even an hour after I finished at the bank, I walked up to the front desk at Seido to sign in and was told that they’re canceling the pay-by-month plan that I’m on. Now they’re only accepting payments taken directly from checking accounts. Blah.
My mother and I thought it best if I opened a new savings account and just transferred funds over when I needed to. This would be most inconvenient, though—having to make sure I have enough in my savings account to switch some over into checking and still keep enough in the savings to avoid the $2 fee if the balance falls below $100. I have decided, instead, to open a second checking account just for Seido. I suppose they just had to make things difficult.

I’m sorry that you got your money stolen, but I guess some irony once in a while is okay. The National Institute of Health has a recommended daily allowance for Irony: http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/iron.asp#h4
For instance, for your age you should get 15mg of irony per day. If you want to avoid irony, you can become pregnant before the age of 14. Then irony does not apply to you.

Thanks, Mike, for both your sympathy and the health tips. Unfortunately, I can’t go back in time and get pregnant. I suppose I’ll have to invest in some irony pills to make sure I get enough.
