which_chickIf you owe me money and you pay late, like really late, like I get December's payment (due 12-15-06) on 1-18-07 and February's payment (due February 15) about 3-8-07, then I'm going to get kind of twitchy about where the fuck April's payment (due 4-15-07) is when it's the fucking first of May.
The borrower says that he would like all further communications to be sent certified mail. Fine by me. And all notifications of late payment, where the late penalty has been applied. Also fine by me. He claims that he keeps making timely payments but can't get mail to arrive at my PO Box because it vanishes into the ether. It doesn't come back to him as "returned to sender", either. It just vanishes. Wow. I wish that would happen to my utility bills, my 1040 forms, my car insurance paperwork... but apparently the only things that get eaten by my demonic PO Box are his timely and prompt payments. Oddly, I get the very-late payments, the ones postmarked after the most recent "Where is My Money?" phone conversation we've had. Really, the whole thing is bizarre as all hell.
Me, I'm calling the X-Files. Maybe Mulder and Scully can get to the bottom of this. I bet if Mulder and Scully had access to the account from which I am paid, they could look at the checks that have cleared and see if they have consecutive numbers or not. That'd be a real Klew, right? 'Cause if there were all kinds of timely payments disappearing into the ether, there would be lots of uncleared checks all over the check register. I mean, it's not like you can have check 381.6 or something. They go from 381 to 382.
