Okay... they say when God closes a door somewhere, he also opens a window somewhere else. Of course it's kinda cheesy, but I must say, it proved to be true many times in my life before. Mainly when I was worried about financial issues. I was SO out of money, I was sad and depressed because I couldn't buy stuff I wanted and this and that etc. Like the past few weeks. If you read my LJ you know that I broke Vincent and that it depressed me endlessly and I cried because having him repaired costs more than my monthly salary which I owe my dad for something else already anyway, which meant that I was out of money for the next 2 months although I had expected them *desperately* since, of course, I wanted to see my girlfriend in 2 or 3 months.

Now, I sent Vincent out to be repaired anyway. I need him after all. Last week then, I checked my balance and I noticed that I had more money that I thought I should. Not insanely more, but a wee bit. Then, yesterday I got my bank statements and saw that my salary was twice as high as it should be. Either, I got a raise which my boss promised my since August, or I got my Christmas gratuity. Anyway, I've got more money. Today, the repaired Vincent arrives and the invoice says "0.00". o_O Does that mean I got it for free? I wanted to call and ask if that was a mistake, but my dad said I shouldn't be so silly and just wait and play dumb.

I mean... I don't dare to cheer just yet. Maybe my boss realizes tomorrow that she gave me too much money and wants it back, and then the Psion folks remember to send the real invoice... So... I won't. But it's kinda weird... isn't it?

And hey, they actually have a Psion repair service there? Damn... And to think when the spring inside the space for my screen pen got bunged up I had to crack my skull trying to fix it O.o
