A Series of Unfortunate Events
Here we go:
I went home for a nice, relaxing mid-week break.
RIGHT. That WAS the plan.
Item 1: My neighbor, Eric's, brother, Chris, had been missing for four weeks. He had been slightly depressed, no more than usual. His bike was still at Eric's (Chris lives in town and came over to visit his mother, who lives in my neighborhood with Eric). Eric failed to mention that a .22-rifle was also missing. I got home just after they filed a missing persons report (Saturday, Oct 8). A search was planned for Thursday, Oct 13. I went over to help make coffee and such for the searchers. They were in there maybe ten minutes before they found Chris. He was at the bottom of a hill. Our assumption: suicide. After an autopsy, it was determined that his rifle had dischared and he had accidently shot himself in the thigh, nicking the artery. He bled out in less than two minutes. He had a habit of target shooting when he was in a bad mood.
Item 2: Dinner with Mary Jane, Ed, mom, dad, Amah and Bapa. I am, apparently, to be hated and reviled for not even considering Florida as an option to live when I graduate. I've been forbidden to move to either Viriginia or Tennessee. Apparently, people in Tennessee don't wear underwear. Neither does my mother's sister; she lives in Florida. I won that argument. My family can BITE ME. The options they will allow me to consider: Florida (HELL NO), Georgia (can't afford it, but is a possibility), California (because I KNOW people out there????!?!?!?!), and Germany (Hell yeah!, but not feasible). Also, males with good relationships with their mothers are not worthy to date or consider relationships with. WTF?!?!?!
Item 3: Delphi filed for bankruptcy. My dad used to work for Delphi (which was a branch of GM, until they seperated). Dad transfered back to GM a year-and-a-half ago (back when mom was having the breast cancer scare). He filed the paperwork to have his pension plan transfered to GM and he even made the deadline. GM did not, and so his pension is still with Delphi. He currently has no pension. He's put myself AND my sister through school. We're broke. It's not good. Fuck Bush. He's a moron. And fuck Michael Moore, just for good measure. What a tool.
Item 4: Speaking of tools, my RA is still a fucking TOOL. He really is. Attitude adjustment, table one.
Item 5: My HD is also a fucking TOOL. Get a damn life. He's mad because Housing is working for me now.
Item 6: My digital camera works. Yippie.
Item 7: I'm considering not doing my internship here. With everything happening at home, I think it'll be easier on my family to do it from home.
Item 8(the good one): Indy rocks my world....along with other various pep band peoples! I had a great time with him on Saturday when he was up for Homecoming.
