So I paid a bill
My ex-gf semi-stuck me with the cancel fee for VZN to split our accounts. It was kind of stupid, because she just had to keep the damn account like 2 more months in order to keep within contract and then get out for free. But alas.. she transfers the # and closes it, sticking me with a $175 bill.
On the flip side, I haven't paid her deposit for the apt back which I think was like $1500 or so, I don't know now because the docs splitting the costs are all lost. So whatever.
I often think back to all the happier times and it kills me. I need to think more about the shitty times to get perspective.
Case in point:
I remember her telling me how the 2ndary market for video game rentals kills new game sales because the game publishers make nothing on rentals and it lowers new game sales. My counter point is that the rental market is a natural evolution of any commodity like video movies or books. I'm sure book publishers were up in arms at the idea of a place loaning books for free, they probably thought it would destroy sales and ruin the publishing business. You have to adapt your biz model to new markets. But when I try to bring out this type of intellectual conversation she would get pissed and feel like I was just trying to argue with her and that she is just trying to say it hurts their sales.
Bah, lame. Guess thats somewhat of a 'men from mars, women from venus' thing.
