Crab grass on the lawn of life.
Last night at 9:02 PM Texas time just as Skyler and friends were returning from a short trip to Blockbusters Video and Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Three failed abortions were jumping into a black SUV and driving away from apartment #106. They left behind a shattered door frame and space that, until very recently, had been occupied by a television, laptop, cell phone, cup-o-change, and dvds. It didn’t take long (30-45 minutes) for Waco Police to begin their hot pursuit of the perpetrators by arriving on the scene and so boldly drawing their guns to search the apartment for any burglars that may have decided to stay behind (That was mostly sarcasm). The police report was filed and I now rest easily at night knowing that detectives are working around the clock to …well, to hand out underage drinking violations to college kids just trying to blow off some steam. I find it both nauseating and amusing that one runs more of a risk buying beer with a fake ID at the gas station than buying a 3 carrot crack rock of some guy named Ralph in the back of the grocery store.
I’m not really this bitter. Truth be told, all I lost was an empty cigarette case of mild sentiment, two wall-mart super saver bin DVDs, and a cup with about $30 worth of quarters. My friends and brother weren’t quite as lucky. My brother lost a broken TV (Yep, they took the old broken TV instead of the new hotness one) and about $400 bucks worth of classy DVDs. Stephen and Adam each lost one or two DVDs. But all that is still replaceable bullshit… Unfortunately, Mary’s laptop containing all of her writings was stolen along with her cell phone. The crappy part is that my laptop that was more expensive was sitting right next to hers. Mine also didn’t have anything super important on it.
I’m done.
Pulling another all-nighter check in on me if you’re bored.
