I hate to talk about negative things, but sometimes they just happen. I just feel that harping on them just makes them worse. So yesterday I got a speeding ticket for going 40 in a 30. I mean, 40, really? It will cost me the same as if I was going 80 in a 70. Now which seems worse? I don't have a TX license, so I can't just take a defensive drivers course. I tried to let it go and not think about it.
Then Abram gets home last night and we move all my stuff in. It felt so good to have my couches. We are probably done at about 12:30am and I go to bed at 2am. I'm up and ready for work at 7:30am and as I walk to my truck I notice that the floor is covered in black glass. I wonder who would of broken a glass by my truck. Then as I look up, I notice that my back window is smashed. Someone broke into my truck last night and took all kinds of stuff from the inside. My ipod, gps, maglight, ripped up part of the dash, and probably some other things I haven't yet figured out. I called the police and they got there quickly and I filled out a report. They noticed another car broken into on the way over, but they had yet to call. They took prints but found nothing. What really pissed me off was that they tried to get in by messing with the handle lock, which means that that is messed up too. Now I have to find out how much it costs to get fixed and if it will be more than $500 or less than, since that is what I'm paying either way. Sure beats getting a few stratches. To make matters more interesting, it starts to rain as the cops leave. I have to create a ghetto window cover with cardboard, thick plastic sheets and tape. It did the job and is the least eye sore you can expect.
Well of course, other than being late to work, it starts to rain even more testing out my cover. It will need more tape later. On the bright side, with a day starting this bad, it can only get better.
On the subject of bad handwriting, which includes mine, did you know that in any given year, approximately 7,000 people die because a pharmacist couldn’t read a prescription.
Let me tell you more about yesterday. So Abram brought my couches, my table, dvds, games, dart board, kitchen ware, stereo and a few other assorted items. Rino, Abram and I started setting up the upstairs and it was starting to look real good. We put some carpets down, some pictures up and even got the TV on a stand. Rino brought a mini-fridge up and now the place really looks like home.
In pretty damn amazing news, I just found out that my friend Angie just passed the Virginia bar exam. I'm so very happy for her. I can't wait to hang out with her and Bob to celebrate. Now she has two bars under her belt. I looked through the list and noticed some names of people I went to school with too. That was a great way to end the day. Can't wait until I join the taking two bars club.
this sucks
I checked your blog thinking you may have given me a sweet shout out and you didn't disappoint. Sorry to about your last 48 hours. I guess this means you should move back to DC. Then these sort of happenings would never occur and we wouldn't have to miss you.
