see all other bummers

― grbchv! (gbx), Sunday, 3 December 2006 03:49 (seventeen years ago) link

103a. In midst of bad legal process due to own stupidity. (don't tip that bottle before you get behind the wheel, folks).
103b. Cannot drive.
103c. I foresee massive debt.

The worst of all bummers. Mine didn't cost me much (relatively - $700 fine, $300 lawyer-friend discount), but the whole thing was fucked (double-fucked because I was under 21 - over 21 I could have pled down). Also spent a little time in teh jail because I had chronic breathing problems and couldn't complete my community service/work release.

It kept me from drinking at all for almost three years and I won't even look at booze if there's a chance I'll drive.

113. holiday shopping retardedness.

stores visited: 5
items found and purchased: 0

― msp, Sunday, 3 December 2006 04:15 (seventeen years ago) link

114a. the wife chewing me out for buying her presents for the holidays. never in my freakin life would i have thought that "Don't buy me anything this year" would result in bullshit if i chose to ignore it. one of the gifts: a $20 travel guide to flippin ethiopia... she wants more than anything to adopt a little girl from there and i've been totally weirded out by another kid, etc etc... but finally have sorta come around... and this was my way of telling her. fuck. score zero for sweetness.

in her defense, her thinking of course is, "bastard keeps spending money we need to go to ethiopia!"

114b. spending the rest of your life with ANYBODY = pita. (at least occasionally.) ((okay, maybe more than occasionally, but... ))

Oy, the most annoying part of the party was there was a past make-out accomplice there who made a point of telling me he's started seeing someone and then walked away. Uh, get over yourself and have a conversation with me, we're at a friend's birthday party, fer chrissake?

― Laurel (Laurel), Sunday, 3 December 2006 05:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Otherwise it was lovely; we drank wine out of bottles and danced to soul records in the smoking room and I just caught the last bus home for the next 45 minutes. I even cut the birthday cake CARLY-STYLE, thanks to her Monday night lessons.

― Laurel (Laurel), Sunday, 3 December 2006 05:29 (seventeen years ago) link

115. Polite conversation. Lose/lose.

― Laurel (Laurel), Sunday, 3 December 2006 05:42 (seventeen years ago) link

― ian (orion), Sunday, 3 December 2006 05:52 (seventeen years ago) link

I am sober as a church mouse, I've only downed a few too many chips ahoys and some peppermint tea. I took a nap thinking I was going out later but then cancelled, so I'm a little bouncing off the counters right now. I might watch another movie.

― Laurel (Laurel), Sunday, 3 December 2006 05:56 (seventeen years ago) link

122. $400 check from ins co somewhere out there, but not in my mailbox.

― Lauren (lauren), Sunday, 3 December 2006 23:47 (seventeen years ago) link

milo, tho that sucks fer you, i am glad that someone else can attest to the utter suckshittiness of the situation.

123. Absence of teh lf? Where is he?

(strongo, try to take a walk in the morning and drinking lots and lots of coffee. morning light (more than afternoon light) and coffee have been shown to improve one's spirits. though of course this simply justifies my desire for caffeine and distraction through motion)

― trees (trees), Monday, 4 December 2006 01:48 (seventeen years ago) link

133b. No $, no fix car.

― John Justen wants to hit you in the head with a pipewrench. (John Justen), Monday, 4 December 2006 16:46 (seventeen years ago) link

According to a book called "Uncommon Uses for Common Househod Objects", you can put a coffee can + candle + matches in yr trunk so you'll always have a source of heat & light! Actually I was thinking it might be even more useful to put some charcoal briquettes in there too.

― Laurel (Laurel), Monday, 4 December 2006 16:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Well, since the car is overheating, perhaps I can warm myself next to it after it catches fire.

145. number of roommate's promises for return from weekend with fam (1. would have rent dopesack, 2. would have mess from stove-left-on-all-night mess cleaned up, 3. would have not accidentally drunkenly saved over my Chrono Trigger New Game+ file, 4. would have not accidentally drunkenly recorded something sloppy/retarded over one of my 4-track Xmas song tapes) fulfilled = zero.

146. babymama putting up fight re: who gets the boy Xmas morning, even though A) she gets a week off work whereas I have 0 vacation days, and B) she has had him Xmas morning 4 years running...I am about to raise first official ruckus of post-togetherness parenting era

147. licensing board shutting me down until January, since the meeting they had on Friday was not, apparently, a "real meeting." I am supposed to start work soon.

― grbchv! (gbx), Monday, 4 December 2006 20:07 (seventeen years ago) link

I can't fucking believe it. Since the whole goddamn thing is "hypothetical" anyway, you should be able to present a HYPOTHETICAL certification and start fucking savings people's lives. Don't you think?

― Laurel (Laurel), Monday, 4 December 2006 20:14 (seventeen years ago) link

i don't think the insurance company would see it the same way

― grbchv! (gbx), Monday, 4 December 2006 20:16 (seventeen years ago) link
