Let me start by saying if you dont want to hear about my sad day, turn back now.

Okay, so I start off the morning going to the doctors office to get my vaccinations renewed (i am a EMT/fireman) and after I drove there I realizezd that I forgot my papers that needed to be signed by the doctor. I drove all the way back home (35 min drive) and got the papers and drove all the way back. Now, I am late for my appointment, which means I have to wait extra long before my name is even called. My appointment was at 8am, it is now 9:30. So the appointment goes uneventfull and I get my vaccination. Its now 11AM.

I am supposed to pick up my brand new rig (it was being put together over the weekend). So I call and find out that

A) mirage shipped it with the wrong rings. They shipped big rings and mini risers and made the container for mini rings. And, since the risers are red, I cant just have some that are in stock overnighted, they have to custom make them. Which means more waiting.

B) I find out that mirage made another mistake by, instead of printing a date of manufacter, printed the serial number again. So there is no DOM on the container. Which probably means I will have to send the whole thing back. Which means more waiting.

So, and this point im well..dissapointed. But it gets worse...oh does it get worse.

Im driving to school and am late for a test so I am speeding. Guess what? I got a ticket. 64 in a 55. Its like "damn, you have to do this today? I mean, you should have seen me yesterday when I was going 75 in a 55.. ARG

So this makes me even later for the test, I only have 20 min to complete a 60 min test. (a math test at that). And its worth 150 points out of 550 for our grade. at this point I think things cant get any worse oh...but they do!

When I walk back to my car, I find that somehow my front left turnsignal light is busted out. I cant image how someone could have hit it while parking because of the way I was parked...so I must have either ran into something or someone smashed it out.

Think it cant get any worse? As I go for my keys I realize that in the rush to get to the test on time, I have left them on the seaT! sO noW I AM LOCKED OUT OF MY TRUCK AND I HAVE TOGET TO WORK IN 30 freaking min!

So, not having my cell phone, I go on a search for a coat hanger. After about 25 min of searching I finally find one in one of the University buldiings so I take it.

As im raming this thing blidnly into the side of my door, the black strip of plastic about 1in wide and as long as the door pops off and falls to the floor. (this is after about 5 min of ramming the coat hanger in there). Think it cant get any worse? THINK AGAIN!

3..count them...3 cop cars come surrounding me with their lights on and they get out with their hands on their guns (still in their holsters) and ask me to take my hand out of my pocket. I cant freaking believe it! Someone called the freaking cops on me! Its broad daylight, im in the middle of the parking lot with people walking by all the time and someone thinks that im steeling a shitty ford ranger in that environment??? wtf! He said that had several stolen cars in the last week and are on alert for this kind of activity. after checking me out and seeing that it is in fact my car, he notices the busted out turnsignal. After I promise that I will fix it he agrees to not give me a ticket.

Think thats all that happened? Ha!

I go to work and get yelled at and told that the boss needs someone to cut back hours starting after christmas, and that Im just the guy for that. So, starting Jan1st, I will be working 8hrs/week. I CANT LIVE ON 8HOURS PER FREAKING WEEK!

So i drive home, eat, and decide to go to Napa auto parts and try to get this dang thing fixed before I get a ticket. Of course I get their 5 min after they close and evene though they are inside, they wont help.

THEN... FREAKING THEN...as im driving home.. I FREAKING RUN OUT OF GaS. wtf did I do wrong JESUS? WTF DID I DO WRONG? SOMEONE CUT OFF MY HEAD AND SCREW MY EYE SOCKETS.

DAMN

PS>.AND while i Was tYping this crap, MY thumb grazed the touch pad on my laptop and highlighted a paragraph and as I typed the next letters it erased the entire paragraph. JUST SHOOT ME

I know something that will clear the bad juju from your mind today: JUMP! Even if it's rental or borrowed gear, it's got to be better than being ground-bound and totally frustrated. B|

Today I found out that even if I dont get at least a C- in calculus there is still a way I can take the next course next semester (it involves some trickery, but im up for that).

Also, I fixed the turn signal cover.

Also, the rigging loft called mirage in the afternoon about the problem, mirage made the toggels (they had to be red) and overnighted them. My rig is all put together and I will pick it up tomorrow!

Still have a chem exam tomorrow and all my finals next week, but somehow I dont care :} I might be jumping this weekend!

:)

Damn.I hope things are better for you tomorrow.<>

My week has been pretty shitty too. Monday I found out a friend of mine that I go to school with went into premature labor (3months early) and she lost the baby.It was malformed and only survived a few hours.Tuesday I found out a guy I graduated high school with/was in band with was among the Marines that went down in the helo a few weeks ago. Wednesday my best friend of 15yrs left w/her Air Force unit headed back to the war and she wont be back until Jan/Feb.

Doesn't make my stressing/freaking out over finals next week look so important now.[:/]
