Two hour drives with out a working radio are hell
Being taunted by the cassette player, that if worked could be ipod adaptable within seconds.
A car ride with an ipod would be like heaven.

A week of plasma donations and four trips to ABC warehouse
a radio installation that cost 50 bucks more then they said it would
leaves me with a new cassette player/ radio.
Ipod adapter in hand, I am under the impression that a car ride with an ipod
Would indeed be like heaven.
But actually it’s more like my car breaking down, then and there
In the installation garage of ABC warehouse.

A towing bill and 6 hundred dollars in repairs later,
I plug in the adaptor and the moment of truth is
cut short when the ipod dies mid song…
It occurs to me, I should buy a charger.

I bet whoever invented it thought making the charger glow
Was a good idea
As if it were saying “hey look, I’m charging!”
In a dark car it screams “hey! Come steal me, I’m attached to something expensive!”
17 cans of spray paint, a leaking jug of mineral spirits, and endless flammable art supplies in an 80 degree car say
Crack the window, after all you’ll be right back!
Crack the window just enough that you can’t reach your arm in to unlock the door…
Not to make rash generalizations,
but I must have forgotten crack heads have thinner arms than me.

two hour drives with a ipod? I barely know what 10 minutes is like,
but it was sort of like heaven.

I am thankful that a brightly glowing charger was attached only to my ipod which was hidden under a pile of papers.
Who knows what would have happened had I attached brightly glowing objects to my laptop and wallet which sat in realitively plain view.
I would have never been able to use the fifty bucks I had sitting in my semi visible wallet,
To go take shots at the bar down the street and wallow in my misery,
Of course I lied about not having cash to the bouncer, so I didn’t have to pay the cover charge.
After ten minutes I felt guilty and went back and payed him.
I don’t know, not to make rash generalizations but I guess I’ll say this as a stereotypical atheist who thinks they are better than other people, I payed the guy
because I have morals.

I’ve never purposely stolen anyones personal property, one time I accidently stole a plastic cup from a party, by way of walking out still drinking it. I genuinely felt really bad, and intended on returning the shitty plastic cup just because I’d taken it . But then I got drunk and left it at a different party. But I used the cup the whole damn time even though I could have used pretty fancy glasses the girl had at the second party, I used that cup the whole damn time and I enjoyed it. I have a feeling the asshole who took my ipod isn’t even going to enjoy my playlists.

I’m not even that mad anymore.

I would say, well at least that fucker is going to hell! But I was raised an atheist and I’ve never believed in hell . Actually quite the contrary, I’m still with the ipod as heaven theory, with that being said I hope that fucker has a car because they’re going straight to heaven.
And I’m glad to give them that, or the crack money they’re selling it for.

Ah, accidental works of charity.

whatever happened to that radio in the first place?

(You cannot “fix” a radio by jamming a pencil in it.
It will be broken forever,
and someday while your sister is driving over a bump,
The pencil will fly out and hit her in the face.)

Unfortunately the radio, installation, repairs, and ipod replacement makes me around $1000 dollars poored than I was a week ago…. Man, I’m so broke I could steal someones ipod and sell it for cash.
