GRRRRRR!!!!!!!

RAGE

Monsterous fucking Rage!

Most of you that know me know that I only get get reeeaaaaly mad playing soccer, or select other competative things. But today was a day that was in need of some good unhealthy, eyes popping out of your head rage!

I'm gonna start with a little back story. Head back to June 2003, I had just paid my first car off. I was the happiest guy around. I had spent three years toiling in the basement hell that was Team Gear working for the man to earn the money for my toy. During this time the car went through two engines, and about 12k in repairs. All of this didn't matter though on that fateful afternoon.

I was headed in the general direction of work headed across a freeway overpass when out of nowhere I get smashed into from the side. As if that wasn't bad enough, the cement baracade that keeps your car from doing a nose dive onto the freeway is scant inches from the side of the road. My car is smashed on both sides, and I'm about as livid as a human can be. I'm left wondering how my luck can be bad enough for my car to get destroyed, after all it's already been through, on the day I payed it off. Is it possible for anyone's luck to be that bad?

Fastforward to yesterday. . . . . A day that shall live in infamamy. I had a soccer game in the morning, which we won by the way. Guess who scored? Yeah, this guy. Pure luck though, but a goal is a goal after all right? Being the nice dude I am I head in to work after my game to help the beligured Shaun. Poor Shaun was stuck working with the crazy girl, and the bosses daughter. He was basically working by himself.

I was in a pretty good mood when I got there, and was happy to be helping out. That was short lived. The clouds rolled in, the thunder shook the ground while the lightning provided a show. The hail began to fall fast and think, then came the rain. The rain was easily worse than the hail, and began to pool up outside the store. I was busy helping people and thought nothing of it. Why whould I? You would think places have drains for water right?



You would be wrong. Dead fucking wrong. So wrong in fact that you would be standing nearly knee deep in water.



I was soooooo mad. I was to the point of being violently mad. What did I do? I took some pictures, went into the office and sat there for a handfull of minutes. I came out calm, collected and ready to kick some ass. I carried on for the rest of the time I needed to be there as if nothing had happened. I put on a smile and helped everyone as best I could.

Now you may be wondering what my first story has to do with this, and we'll get to that now. I paid off my car yesterday. Do I have the worst luck of any know human being? Did I do something wrong and kharma is out to get me? I highly doubt the kharma thing, but maybe I just do have terrible luck. I am never going to buy a car again, of that you can rest assured.






So this is what I get to spend the day doing. Doesn't it look like fun. That's right, the interior of my car is now on the exterior.

I just have to remember to tell myself, if it wasn't this, it'd be something else. I'm in a much better mood about it today, it's more of a frustration and sadness than anything now. I think by tomorrow I'll mostly be over it. Besides I'll be to busy this week to even think about it.

Dude,

I am so sorry...

A few years back, a friend of mine had just bought a brand new truck. After he signed all the papers and was making a left turn leaving the dealer's lot, he got hit by some ass who ran a red light.

Hope the car is ok...
