It has been an off-week!

You know when one day your on top of the world having a great day and the next well it isnt that great.
Well I have been having one of those only its not a day, its a week!
It all started on Saturday afternoon after work.
My camera had been on charge all day and the three green lights had flashed meaning 100% charge. When i went to turn my camara on, it switched itself off and had to be re-charged. It is under an extended warranty (the camera is only 14 months old!). Anyways off to Harvey Norman I go on Sunday. I was stuck there for a little under two hours. The customer service guy said he thought it was better if i bought a new camera. A new camera!?! This one is not ancient! He then refused to send it away. Two reasons: He did not think Kodak would fix it because there was a crew missing from the camera and number two because I did not give him $85 to send it away (remember its under warranty!?!. Supposed to be sent away for free!) and after talking to his manager, she agreed the camera would be sent away.
Monday: Take a pair of shoes to the shoe repairer. When I came back to pick them up, I accidently left my wallet on the counter. The shoe repairer was closing. Going to catch my afternoon train I soon discovered I did not have my wallet. 100% certain of where it was I went to the shoe repairers tof ind it shut but I found a mobile number I could contact the owner on. He sounded vague by first saying yes he had the wallet then no he didnt have it. Lucky for me my boss was still at work and he lent me some money to get home. I am devastated. Everything in my wallet is personal. Medicare card, ID, none of this is any use to any one except myself.
Tuesday morning: Harvey Norman call. The general manager for the digital department calls me and said on review of my camera they wanted $85 to send the camera away. (Haven't we already had this conversation!?!) I said I could not come over there any earlier than late next week because I am going interstate. She replied with "fine, it will stay here until you pay!" Because I work in the city I had to call my Mum to go over and give this lady the money. I am not happy with this. I believe if the camera is under warranty, it should be sent away for free. I should not have to cover Harvey Norman's costs. Because of this experience I am NOT buying anything electrical from them again.
Tuesday afternoon: Picture this: Me, frantic running around getting new cards: Bank, Medicare etc. On my way to get a new licence I had a phone call from my dental assistant. (what in the world could she want!?!) She had phoned to tell me the Sweeny Hotel on Clarence St had my wallet. It had been dumped in the Gents toilet.
The person who had my wallet took anything of value to them: money,train ticket etc but the one thing I am devastated over. He took my memory card from my camera. The one thing I wanted. There is over 400 photos. He would not know anyone in them so why would he take it!! I only had my memory card in my wallet because of the camera situation. Nice hey!
So from tomorrow, I will be going to Queensland for a long (deserved!) break. I wont be blogging for a week, but when I get back I promise I will fill you guys in on my holiday and any other bits of juicy gossip I pick up along the way!
HAVE A BETTER WEEK THAN ME EVERYONE
