Murphy Shoots... Missed by just a quarter of an inch
Blargh, what a day.
First off... today was rainy... that is directly related to the rest of my day... had it been sunny the entire day would have been 100% different. Got up and played some cards with Mikey and Erol. I called Bonnie to see if she wanted to do something today and I accidently woke her up (Sorry!!) and on her birthday none-the-less. What a bastard ;). Mikey left for work and Erol and I headed into town at about noon-ish, noon thirty. My phone had no reception in the keep so with umbrella in hand I walked around main street for a little while to see what was going on for the day. After the most rediculous game of phone tag ever over the span of 45 seconds Bonnie and I got in contact and we planned to hang out later that day. I continued to stroll around for a while and then I remembered something. I had forgotten my dinner. I hadn't eaten breakfast because I didn't feel like it... I wasn't planning anything for lunch... and I was going to eat dinner at work. Opps! I forgot it. So I go to call mom. My phone dosen't work. I try again... still not working. Don't forget... it's raining. I find a phone that does work and call home... no answer. I realized what has happened... mom bought new phones and deactivated the old phones. Now I am phoneless waiting for Bonnie to call so I can figure out where to meet her... except I can't recieve said call. I pace up and down main street. Back and forth until I spot someone up ahead, probably a good 150 feet. It looks like Bonnie... but my eyes are bad, especially at a distance, so I don't want to yell until I get close. I pick up the pace and get closer and it is Bonnie! So I had a small stroke of luck. Bonnie and I hung out for the next two and half hours or so (I wasn't really keeping track of time) and it was really awesome. Wwe walked around town and stopped a few places but that wasn't really important... I was just happy to be with her. I love just hanging out with her... It was enough to make me not even care about everything else that had happened that day, or being wet, or cold... or anything. We saw a big puddle and jumped around in it. I didn't get to change my socks until 11 :-) Worth it? yes. I may have blisters but it was still far to cool to let a little skin irritation bug. Honestly, It was so much fun and I am glad I got a chance to see her today and that all the factors stacked up didn't prevent it. I walked Bonnie home eventually though so she could get warmed up. Even if you have an umbrella you are going to get wet mind you. I headed out to get ready for work in three hours. I got horribly horribly lost on the way back from Bonnie's :-D I am talking walking in circles and going the opposite way and everything... I ended up stopping on "Jeff St." and asking some old veteran for directions. ha ha. It took me about an hour from the time I dropped Bonnie off at her house (you know, walking style) to the time I got back to Main street. Ha ha. Walking past the tontine I ran into a gagle of people... well okay three people, Santina, Liz, and Emily. They were renting movies. They wanted to rent Casablanca but Bart&Greg's didn't have it so we went to Movie Gallery and I pulled the "I get to rent three movies at a time for free" card and got Casablanca... Then Santina and Emily tried to get me fired by making me get in the car and go watch the movie, which I would have loved to do but I had to be to work at 7. Liz was like a moral guide right there and stopped me from getting in the car which was the right choice; regardless of how much I wanted to go. Then I hung about like a bum for two hours in the little dog cafe, Not buying anything because I forgot my wallet at home :-/ Work started, it was okay, I was kind of tired and my feet were still wet but it was alright... I cashed out just right except some fucking lady gave me a 14.62 cent check and one dollar. so I had it in the computer as a 15.62 cent check and had a one dollar surplus. Whatever... Who cares right? Then I came home and got my ultra cool new flip phone! Sweet! 649-3577 still. Now I get cool freatures like voice activated dialing... and a flipy part. I get to get rid of the broken brick that was my old ghetto phone. I am pretty happy. When comparing the goods to the bads today it was WAY better then bad. That is mostly Bonnie's doing (thank you :) ). One other thing though, I noticed it in my X walkings up and down the street today. When it is rainy there is hardly anyone walking in the streets, and the grey clouds soften all the colors, and although everything feels sorta empty it is really nice and really calming. I love walking, and I love walking in places with buildings, and I love walking with Bonnie... so it was a three for one deal today. I was happy :-)
Happy Birthday Bonnie!
