"Something About Today" 2003-12-18 - 2:39 a.m. older - previous - next - profile - host - my band - my lj I had one awesomely shitty day that's really the only way I can put it first, I wake up, and my dad has taken his car out shopping making me late for work for the second day in a row so I sit around waiting for him I go out and check my car, just to make sure; and it didn't start so my dad gets home, starts screaming at me the moment he gets in the door about how I should've just taken my car despite the fact that he knows it's broken and has a tendency to die very often I tell him it wouldn't start this morning; he gets pissed off and goes outside and starts it on the first fucking try so I hop in my car and take off all pissed off, figuring "ok, asshole. When this thing dies, you're gonna have to drive out here in your car and get me" but, by some Christmas Miracle; my car ran fine I drove it to work drove it to lunch and back and drove it home worked like a charm I'm speechless and I'm torn between trying to see if I can use it to get around again, or try not to push my luck and keep fighting with my dad over his car I don't know I really don't but back to my day chronologically I got to work super-pissed, both at my dad and at myself and then immediately had to swallow all that rage and put on a happy face for the customers that hurt and this was one of the worst days at work I've ever had it seems like every other customer I found a new way to fuck up I quit Eegee's because I had a day like today; and couldn't get off work the next day fortunately, I do have off work tomorrow I don't know I got through the day by remembering a line from The Critic: Jay: "they really like me here in France" Duke: "maybe that's becuase you look like Babar, King of the Elephants!" and just the way Duke says that makes me laugh and also a scene from Futurama; when the Niblonians are explaining to Fry why the Evil Brains can't detect him[because he's so stupid] they show this weird clip on a screen behind them of Fry trying to eat a pineapple on a string without using his hands and it's just so random and bizarre and so idiotic that I just crack up at the image anyway slowly I fought my way through the day and now it's over I'm looking forward to tomorrow very badly it's been the carrot on the stick getting me through the week and I just pray that nothing fucks up tomorrow I have off, I get paid, I'm going to finish my Christmas shopping, I'm going to get my hair cut, and I'm going to do the santa thing with my friends as long as nothing goes wrong tomorrow should rock and I just pray nothing goes wrong because I need this I really really do I don't know tomorrow I'll have a good story, either way Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want � � |
