Slowly. Over the period of one-two weeks.

By the way, this week through next is finals time for me, and then I'm going back to TN for a week where I won't have my computer. I'll try and have your layout done before then, but my projects absolutely come first. This, young lady, is why I don't like you to pay beforehand! It shaaames me.

It's up to the bank to refund it, which they are, although slowly. They have to wait for each charge to clear before they can replace it, so right now I have a balance of $31 for the rest of the week, yay.

I had to file a police report, and the police seemed a little irate about how slowly the investigation is going, although they claim to have one suspect in custody. Everyone seems to agree it stems from Ex Libris except SCAD. When I talked to SCAD security, they said there was no definite proof or some such.

Is it just me, or shouldn't it be a simple matter of finding out who was working during the hours these students made purchases, and sorting through those employees for the guilty party?

you'd think so. i mean, why don't they just look at the credit card records and see when it was charged, y'know?

Since next week is finals, you can send it to my TN addie as long as it would arrive the 13-20th. Any time after that, I'll be back in GA. I should make a post with my new contact info, eh?
