Decision Made

Well, my decision has been made for me. I was unsure whether to go out into town tonight, or to save my money on the off-chance that the weather would be good for Soho Pride on Sunday. I just checked my bank account and it turns out that I can do neither.
My debt management company have taken an unauthorised payment and so I am totally skint. They were meant to contact me last Monday to arrange this payment but failed to phone, so I arranged to make the payment by standing order. This payment went out yesterday. It turns out that the day before they made a Visa transaction for this same amount without speaking to me first. I just phoned them to explain and to get a refund, but was holding so long that I ran out of credit on my phone.
They should phone me back, but I am not going to hold my breath. I have sent a message to my bank asking for them to get the payment back for me, as it wasn't authorised, but whatever happens I won't get the money until the middle of next week now at the earliest as payments tend to take up to 5 working days and it is now the weekend! Why is everything always so complicated for me?
All this stress and trouble is because my new employers f***ed up my first wage packet 6 weeks ago and I am still trying to sort the mess out!
Give me a fu**ing break!!
So, I'm now looking forward to a weekend at home. Alone. Again. With little food because I have to make £10 last until god knows when (if neither my bank or Bains & Ernst help me out then it will be until the 10th September!!).
And I was gonna get my sister's wedding present today too! Oh well sorry Max.
