Default The Whole World Is Against Me And My Bonny. (RANT)

SORRY GUY'* BUT I NEDED TO VENT BADLY TODAY.

Half hour past midnight i get pulled over by a local Oink for having strobing foward faing blue lights which they don't strobe both of the front turn signal bulbs are blue. (which memory serves me ain't cop headlight strobes just white.) so it was a 35 Dollars for each bulbs and everyone knows there'* 4 bulb'* so yeah 140 buck ticket.

Then this morning the alarm goes off at 10:30 A.M. Car was supposed to be at the shop at 8:00. So i figure no big deal they know me here. I show up some how the dumb blonde secretary scheduled my car painting the same week as the painter is on vacation. I look at the calender and it said in big letter'* MANNY VACATION. how did this pass her by. They tell me bring the car next monday. which would have been no problem if i didn't already shave my door handles. which now i gotta drive around for a goddamn week with 4 ugly green body filler marks on my door. If things couldn't get worse at the shop i left the keys inside the car with the door shut. so we have t slim jim the door open. Then I go to leave and exhuast scrapes on the way out the parking lot. JUST GREAT.

I go to the bank to cash my check i go t drive thru 10 cars in each of the 3 lanes so i figure i will go inide gotta be shorter. NOPE. freakin even more people. so i decide t go to another branch. SAME DAMN CRAP. Even Bigger Line. Went to all 4 branches in the city and all of them filled with people.

I go to the post office to send a set of bulbs back. A line like i have never seen at this post office. This time i decided i will wait i need to return the pacakge. I get to a teller i give her the package tell her i need to ship it back. she tells me "go home tape the box bring it back." WHY WOULD I NEED TO GO HOME IF SHE HAS IT BEHIND THE COUNTER. At That moment I Felt Like Going Postal On Her. So i go home tape the box. Bring it back she tells me that i need to make a shipping label. So she gives me the piece to fill out with sender and reciever'* names and address. SHE HAD THE NERVE TO PULL OUT THE ROLL OF TAPE AND ATTACH IT TO THE BOX. I asked her why i had to go home to tape it when they have tape there. she tells me it'* for priority mail only. And would cost me 45 Cents. If she told me that in the first place i would have paid it. And would not have to go back to the house.

I call Papa John'* pizza to have one delivered. they tell me 30-45 minutes. Fine by me i g to pick up the girlfriend at work bring her home (it'* been 15 minutes by this time) i bring her up her driveway she tell'* me she can't see me no more and won't tell me why so after 10 minutes of screaming i just left in fury. To get home and not miss my pizza. i get there no sign of them cool. I'M WAITING AND WAITING. Finally i call the store and ask them hat happened to my pizza they tell me the pizza was sent 20 minutes after the call and there was no reply to the door. i politely tell them they told me 30-45 minutes and your there in 20 minutes. she tells me oh well this will upset you unanswered pizza'* get throw away. so i'm furious wanting to kill her dippy high pitched voice. i tell her i ant t order one and i will eb home sh tells me there is a 5 dollar charge to address that had no answer or some bullshit like that. I screamed I'll JUST ORDER FROM ANOTHER FU%*ING PLACE.

I MEAN THIS WHOlE DAY SO FAR HAS BEEN FULL OF **** AND I NEED IT TO END. OH AND I TALKED TO THE EX SHE TOLD ME SHE BROKE UP WITH ME BECAUSE I WAS MORE ANGRY AT HOW THE BONNY DIDN'T GET TO GO INTO THE SHOP THAN HOW THE POSSIBLE CUSTOMER TREATED HER AT WORK. SHE'* A FREAKING TELEMARKETER DOR CHRIST SAKE. she'* had worse day'*. Think this was just an easy excuse to break up. i gaurentee she met someone else. oh wel more time and money to spend on the bonny.

:?

Feel better after that rant? As they say, when it rains it pours. Sorry for the metaphors, but, tomorrow is a new day.

I bet the rant felt really good after letting it all go. Better to vent here then somewhere else where we can easily get careless
