Lured my from my plain to her clandestine domain . . .
And the streak of luck keeps coming.
Short version? After 22 years of living in Philly and never being attacked, I got mugged last night. I'm fine, no cuts or bruising or anything from the knife the chick held to the back of my neck. The cops said she was probably a pro - grabbed the back of my jacket, held the knife to my neck, made me give her my money and my transpass (which she knew I had, so was probably following me on the train from Temple), and wouldn't let me turn around - and the whole thing took less than a few minutes.
But now I'm down $30 of cash and a $116 monthly transpass. Which I have to go buy because it's only the 8th of the month and I have three more weeks of class/work to get through.
So yeah. Not in the greatest of moods right about now. Especially since I have 10 pages of thesis to write while simultaneously getting through five STRAIGHT days of work. Wonderful.
Oh, and for my music whores on here (Nan, I'm looking at you), have some melancholy lyrical songs:
Antje Duvekot - Judas
Antje Duvekot - Black Annis
