I think yesterday was one of the most despressing and all around bad days I have ever had.
Had a job intervew. Got up went for a shower - no hot water! Took one anyway go to get roommate up for ride - she is sound asleep and WILL NOT BUDGE. So, tried to call and let them know I would be running late. The phone would not dial out! So run (and I do mean run) out the door to get to friends' house - On my way out the door, I miss the first step and fell down a full flight of stairs! Got up and ran to my friend Emerson's, and tripped *up* his stairs. Got to his apartment and asked if I could use his phone and if he could give me a lift he said yes. Called potental job - no answer. They did not ever answer the phone. Begged for a ride and he said yes, no problem - 'til his wife said she wanted him there so they could talk and so he could make her breakfast - so he then declined his generosity when she insisted it was her car he was using. As I left my tie got shut in the door and I nearly hung myself.
I then go back to try to get the roommate up one more time, and still not so much as a grunt out of her. I could have burned the place down and she would have never moved. Well at this point, I am beyond late and I am wondering what I should do. So I grab my cd player and some cds and go outside to think and AGAIN I miss the first step, this time I *broke one of my cds* as I fell. Now the desperation is starting to hit because I realy wanted this job. I then decide to sit on some steps in the parking lot. They lead from one parking lot down a hill to another. The spot in front of the steps was empty as were the 2 on either side - no cars on the entire row. SO remembering my previous and recent stairs experience I carefuly sat down only to still miss the entended step and hurting my ass. Finaly get to the point I wanted on the steps and I am trying desparately to figure out how to salvage this job and rest of the day.
Then ... a car hits me!!
The asshole was parking his car and thought it would be funny to see how close he could get without me seeing him!! He hit me..
in...
the...
HEAD...
with his bumper!! It did not really hurt, mind you, it was just the final injury to my already insulting day. I did not know if I wanted to cry, kill him, or kill myself - so I went upstairs locked myself in bed for the rest of the day.
And for those of you that want my "digits" as you put it, check my last post. (Just remember, tis not his phone, so try not to call at awkward hours, lest the owner get annoyed :D --ed)
This is Chris wishing that everyone have a better day than the last. Love you and miss you all.
