Come ON.

a) Late last Sunday night, I arrived home after doing laundry. When I went to turn my key in my ignition? The damned thing twisted like a piece of fucking tinfoil and - voila! - broke off in my hand. Stuck in the ignition. Got through that, the next day, with the help of a locksmith and Geico Roadside Assistance..though they only cover the first $100.

b) Monday? DJ's car died. Mass Air Intake, which he'd fubared, working on it.

c) After driving him all week to work, I arrived, last night, at his workplace, to find he'd already gotten his car back. No biggie - I offered to buy him and his buddy some hotdogs at the local Sheetz - - 2 for $1 special, of course, and they work hard. They eagerly agreed to meet me there, after stopping to get cat food.

d) I get to Sheetz, get out of my car with my wallet and lock my car to go into the store and the lock literally popped out of the door, into my hand. The entire mechanism. My purse, iPod and cellphone are now locked in my car.

e) I call Geico - thank you, Sheetz personnel, for your kindness - to get it towed - and the guys arrive. They somehow get the door open. The Geico lady and I laugh, and THANKFULLY, she gives me a reference number, "because you never know"...I get out to my car AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP, TOTALLY. AGAIN.

f) JUST as the guys are pulling away, I scream, "WAIT!!!!", and thankfully, they hear me. About an hour commences, with them trying to get the wheel unlocked without breaking the shitty tinfoil key off, AGAIN, and there is much texting between gayalithiel and myself, who I am supposed to be meeting online.

g) I get home, only to call Geico AGAIN, and said reference number comes in to play. Then, we have to drive all the way back to meet the wise-ass tow guy and have it towed.

Where is this money going to come from? Seriously. Seriously, fuck my life.

1. I realize that my hair...is going to have to do its own thing, as I can't afford beauty parlor foolishness.
