not my day

ok, so i vege nicely all day and then decide to splurge majorly on italian dinners for the next few days and i call and order and head out to pick them up and my car is not there... what?... i said my car was not there... who would steal an 11 year old beat up chevy cavalier was my first thought, almost simultaneously thought along with oh shit, my softball equipment, mainly, the glove... a few moments thought leads me to realize i have more than a thousand dollars worth of softball stuff and cloths in the car, not counting the cash i keep in the between seat compartment and assorted sundries...

fuck me with a qutluch, can life throw me any more curves?... so i call the apartment office emergency number and of course there is no answer and nobody gets back to me (it's been five hours now) and so i call the police and they tell me they have a report of my car being towed from right in front of my apartment because it did not have a visible parking permit... i call the towing company number that the police gave me and the towing company said i had to give them an hour notice to have someone at the lot where my car is and i searched online for a taxi and after an hour i found one and set a time for a pick up and called the towing company back and set a time for a pick up and does everything have to be so challenging (of course i had no one nearby to call for a ride cuz precious doesn't have a car and jackson is on vacation down south and everybody else i know lives on the other side of town and time is running out on picking the car up tonight and it's more money if i leave it there overnight and oh yeah, the food i ordered for pick up...

i called the restaurant and somehow talked them into delivering the food even though they don't deliver to this address and after waiting an hour for the food and eating, the taxi shows up and drives me to the car place and i pick up the car and so much for economizing cuz i am $250 poorer now than when i woke up this morning...

and how was your day?

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
