Wow it has been a crazy week. From a trucker calling back to Verizon to ask for my phone number to being rescued not once, but twice by a friend of mine... yeah. New Roomie too. The old one moves out at the end of the month and the new one needed a place to stay that was less than a 45minute commute, so here I am. Hes a lot of fun too. Been drinking a bit too much, but oh well, I've been staying out of trouble.
Back to the rescueing though: Last tuesday we got some new interns at work and I was taking one of them to get his car worked on at Sears and we get the paperwork done and call his parents and they are cool with doing it and we go to unload his stuff into my car and he promptly procedes to lock his keys in the car. The mechanic at Sears was beyond worthless and we end up trying to use a coat hanger and the security guard comes over and we are making zero progress. I call my friend in town and he comes over and somehow manages to break into the damn thing. That is hard work by the way. Then Friday I went out and got stranded (long story) and he was there and was able to call me a cab and spot me the $10 for the ride. Thank goodness. But c'mon, that was twice in one week that he was the knight in shining armor to my damsel in distress!
Saturday morning I was sitting out on the patio at a coffee shop downtown talking to my parents and about every couple minutes a pack of people on bikes drove past, completly obliterating my ability to converse. I want me one of them! No more spending money on clothes or expensive food, need to get a vehicle with good mileage :-) and of course the helmet.
