since our house hasnt had electricity in more then 10 days, i've been on a pilgrimage for power. since my mom went to her boyfriends house in hobe sound as soon as he got it, i've been on my own. extendo weekend.

i spent a couple nights in the heat. then one at laurens on her superbed[<3thankYOUforlettingme] and one at carlos', and for the past 4 i've been at marks.

who wants me for the weekend?

anyway. not a whole lot else is going on. oh wait!

so the night before last the water went out in mark's neighborhood for some reason or another around 12 at night. for some other reason or another, we were sitting outside around the same time. as we were heading back inside, we see this city worker go barreling down the street in reverse by my car, and at the same time we hear this really great crashing sound.

so i walk out to the street to find a LIVID city worker screaming into his cell phone, and my car mirror dangling from its post on my door.

the city worker continued to pace in circles and scream into his phone as i inspected the damage.

and continued.

in fact, he never actually spoke to me. which was a total faux paux [how is that second part spelled?] on his part. cause i deffff would have told him to give me 20 bucks and get out of there. but he didnt. he called his supervisor.

so the supervisor comes. and he doesnt speak to me either. the only thing i know about him was that he was really mad at the city worker [who later came to be known as Gary Philcox] and he was about half of Gary's age. oh, and that he came with a polaroid camera.

still not speaking to me, he goes on to photograph the entire front passenger side of my car, which features a blemish from a previous.. truck... incident.

so photos in hand, he asks 'is this everything?' and i return with 'yep' he counters with 'all this shit too?' [pointing and nodding to the previous blemishes]

yeah, why not?

and into the night they went, after furnsihing me with the proper papers to make claims with, they were gone as quick as they had come.

so i got two estimates for my damage, and apparently, the city owes me in the area of $1200.

what a nice city. should have been friendlier though.
