The Case of the Mysterious Car Damage

Alright.. this month continues to disappoint. About a week ago I parked my car out in the lot here at my apartment. Only to awaken the next day with a nice door ding in my door. Great. So, I few more days go by, I end up parking in the same spot. I awaken this time with two more door dings and a nice key mark.

Fucking great. But now, you see, I am pissed. I am also very suspicious, since each time I received these car abuses I was parked in the same open spot next to a dedicated spot. This time, however, the car next to me is still there. Pretty easy to match up his doors to my marks. So, what the fuck? This guy some freak or something that gets home from work and is so pissed off he goes out of the way to damage the car next to him?

So, I am keeping an eye out now. Last night, I noticed another vehicle parked in the open spot next to this dude. The damager in question is not home yet. I walk over and check out this unsuspecting car in the open spot. No dents, no dings. Flawless. Mental note.

I get up this morning and the car is still parked there, I go check it out. Sure fucking enough, TWO HUGE door dings on this car now!! Coincidence? I think not.

So now, my vindictive side is out. The guy who is doing this must pay retribution. The woman of course is always fearful when I am in this mood. (don't worry honey, I am not going to do anything). Though, it would be a shame if this guys car caught on fire or something similarly bad. You don't screw with me and not get double your trouble back. It's just the way I am. (don't worry honey, I am just kidding...)

To add to it all, I went and purchased a new pair of jeans on my way home. Only, once I get them home I realize they are the hillbilly jeans with that stupid ass loop thing on the hip for a hammer or shotgun or something. *sigh* Guess it will give me something to do tomorrow when I go to exchange them.

Save me from this month. Please. Really.

Giant ball of stress

So, I started off my day today by going into work on my day off! Yes, yes indeed. Nothing better than that folks. Thinking you work, go through the motions, only to arrive and realize.. shit, it's my day off.

I made the best of my time, since I was already up and all, to go run some errands. Once that was all done, I came home in a futile effort to relax. After the obligatory 7 call minimum from work I finally got about to relaxing around 4pm. That lasted until about 8pm when the woman came home and started hammering me with questions about the upcoming event.

I have to be honest, between work stuff and personal stuff, I am starting to lose it. I can't wait until this whole deal is over. Get it all behind us. Cuz it's just a big God damn ball of growing stress. Oh, don't get me wrong, I am sure it will be all nice and stuff. But still, once it is over, half of my stress will be gone. Then I just need to contend with the other half...

Patience is not one of my Virtues

Had inventory at the store today. Always an annoying process. However, the store is always kept in good shape and I have done enough of these that I can ensure a quick and easy inventory.

I decided to run some errands afterward. Finally got over to my folks to drop them off some new cell phone batteries I had ordered for them. Also figured that while I was out and had the time I would go and get a hair cut as well.

Well, that sure was a fucking mistake! Little did I know it was national fucking "take your family to get a haircut day" today! God damnit! For those who know me well, I hate to wait. I refuse to wait extended periods for anything. You want my money? You want my business? I want fast service.

After 30 damn minutes of waiting, there were still people rolling in who apparently were already "in line" but since the wait was so long they had decided to go to get a few extra years of college in and come back when they were done for their haircut appointment. So, what initially looks like 3 people ahead of me, ends up being like 12. Don't even get me started on the mother and her three kids. Pisses me off the same way like when you are in line at a food joint like Subway or something and the ONE dude in front of you orders 8 sandwiches for all his friends!

ARRGG!

So, I will have to try another time, perhaps when all the kiddies and old folks are sleeping later tonight.

Show me the money!

Today was pretty a damn busy day. I am pretty beat right now. Good day though.

Due to our store's kick assedness, we have received two new toys. One is an onsite DVD transfer/copy unit from YesDVD. The other is a large format printer from Epson. Basically, they are cash printing machines. You see, we have had these things for two days and are already making mad money from them! Yay us and yay me! Money is good. So is the capability it gives us too. I already see us getting even busier than we are now.

We ended up taking one of the cats, Benjamin, into the doctor yesterday. Cat has been having problems keeping his food down. (yeah yeah, bleah) So we wanted to get him checked out to make sure everything was ok with him. Got the call today and great news! He is in perfect shape! So, that is pretty cool, cuz he is a cool cat, if indeed a large, fat one.

Sleeping not on the agenda

Ok, it's 3am. I am still up. I was having a late night, ready to go to bed and found that some ants decided to bust a move on my bathroom floor! WTF? So, I just got done vacuuming them up and spraying Raid over the place. Not sure where the hell they came from.. but bugs creep me out!!

Now, I am not tired. My second wind came and I am wide awake.. but I need sleep! Luckily I am off tomorrow, at least.

A day off my ass

I just love those "days off" that are fucking nothing of the sort! Like today, for example! My day off... right.

First, I get a call earlier in the week from the boss asking me if I could come in early today to shoot a training video. Um, well, I'd rather not, it's my day off.

"Oh, it will only take an hour." he says.

Yeah, bullshit. Two and half hours later, I finally get to go home. Then lets follow that up all day with work calling me constantly through out the day.

So, today is one of those days that.. you know, was suppose to be a day of relaxation which is really just another work day for me. I'm telling you know, I am going to take an extra day off soon to make up for this friggin wasted day today.

Damn, I'm in public

So, the woman and I went out last with some of her friends. This made me realize that I really hate her friends. HAHAHA.. no no, I'm just kidding! hehe..

Anyways, we went out to do dinner and a comedy club. Yeah... so, the dinner was at the comedy club. They spared no expense at fucking up our order royally. It was late, it wasn't right, wrong dishes, average food. Yay.

So, on to the comedy acts. There were four different performers. One sucked and the other three were moderately funny. So, um, yeah. Night is rocking so far.

After that we decided to go ... let me rephrase that to "they" decided to go to a bar. Now, I do not drink and absolutely hate the smell of smoke. Let alone a bar where the smoke penetrates your clothing to the point of being disgusting. So, yeah! Lets go to a bar!

Lucky I had some solace in the fact that the only other male along (who was a husband of one of the womans friends) seemed to be a carbon copy of me (scary, no?).. he did not drink and would have prefered to just be left at home when the gals go out!

Speaking of the whole husband/married thing.. Brad Pitt has got that shit owned! In an article you can read here he stated that "Angie (Angelina Jolie) and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able".

I can only assume what he means by "everyone else" are homosexuals? Maybe dogs and cats? I dunno... but shit! Way to go Brad! Apparently it takes a movie star and a really dumb chick to make this line fly! Yeah, let me go try that one out on my woman and see what comes of it!

**be right back**

OK, I just tried this line. The response "well, maybe if you had Brad Pitts money!" Hmmm... So, I guess that's what it comes down to folks. Poor people get married and rich people, I guess, can avoid it?

The power of advertising

Holy crap! Did we have one hell of a storm last night! Crazy sideways rain and wrath of God stuff. NEAT! Going to be going out in a bit and see how things look. I can already see quite a few trees down just from my window though.

This week marks myself and the Woman's SIX year anniversary! We've had some ups and downs, no doubt about it. But good times. To mark the occassion, I accompanied said Woman to pick out new perfume for her.

You see, she has attempted to purchase perfume before but, alas, all of it has smelled really bad to me. Not sure why! I am certain that she has good taste and chooses very nice perfume. I can only assume it is a problem with my sense of smell.

So, we tried a bunch of fragrances and decided on one we both liked. Until, we got home, that is! You see, she was so happy with her new perfume that she decided to go look it up online. The problem at that point? She did not like the advertising! So now she has fallen into depression that her lovely new perfume (that she was super happy about in the store) is no longer up to snuff because she did not like the advertising!

If she does not wear it, I am putting it on the cats...

Crikey! Damn...

Steve Irwin, the "Crocodile Hunter," is dead. Major suckage. Apparently he was on the bad end of a Stingray encounter. The woman and I have have watched this dude over the years on his show on the Discovery Channel. The guy was a riot. He was full of energy and passion for what he did and it's really a shock to hear that he is just gone now.

Now that's a trophy!

I ran across this on Yahoo news of all places. Apparently the rapper Ice-T (insert laugh here) has himself quite the trophy wife! Why not when you have more cash than third world countries! Her name is Coco...

Why grow up to be a doctor or an astronaut? Apparently the good life is being a rapper. Who would of thought?

So, I have a very unusual two DAYS OFF starting tomorrow. I am really hoping I can enjoy them thoroughly. However, as of this evening, I find myself very.. "on edge". I am hoping this feeling will go away soon. It is most annoying.
