Feb. 22nd, 2013 06:17 pmToday has been brought to you by the words "Arduous" "Expensive" and number "Screw You."
A timeline:
1) Woke up.
2) Had part of the breakfast MRE since I didn't have groceries and had a truck with two flat tires.
3) Took brief shower
4) Proceeded to remove the flat tire from the back of the truck:
4a) In the process of removing said tire from the bed, slip and fall in the rain, destroying phone in my pocket.
4b) Discover the spare isn't just needing a replacement tire, the tire's rim is cracked from the accident.
4c) Proceed to take the mounted flat tire off.
4c1) Have the jack slip off the mount several times due to rain on the road.
4c2) Thank heaven for keeping the wooden chock from the 1970s pickup which kept the rotor assembly from slamming into the ground.
5) Take another shower.
5a) Change into cleaner clothes.
6) Order replacement phone
6a) Worry that this will end up being another debacle like the Sidekick 4g. Hover over the order button for a REALLY long time.
7) Buy replacement tire.
7a) Pay double the expected price.
7b) Eat lunch across the street while they get it balanced.
7b1) Pay too much for too little food.
8) Drive home.
9) Remount tire.
10) Go buy groceries.
10a) Apparently run around the grocery store with your belt unbuckled and dangling out of your shirt.
10b) When it's time to pay, forget your wallet at home.
10b1) Drive home.
10b2) Get wallet from bedroom.
10b2) Drive back.
10b3) Pay for groceries.
11) Come home and take the rest of the day off.
If you need me, I'll be up in my room under the covers hoping an asteroid won't hit me in the head.
