Terrible Morning!

I woke up late this morning. Barry got up well before I did, and headed out to work. I got up a half hour after I was already supposed to be at work. I must have been more tired than I thought. It didn't feel like I slept very well, but then, if I didnt end up beating myself up, then I guess you could call it a good night's sleep. So I frantically got up, took a two second shower, threw on my clothes, and ran out to my car. But I had not one, not two, but three flat tires! I wish I was kidding, but I'm not. I had one of those crappy little tires in the trunk, the ones that say (only use for ten miles) or something, but I didn't have three. So I called into work and told them I wouldn't be able to come in. I wasn't feeling to hot anyway and didn't really want to go in, so I leveraged this as an excuse. I called a towing company to get my car and take it to a tire place. The tow only cost $150! What a rip off! Plus three new tires, which was just under $100. The mechanic asked who I'd pissed off, because he said my tires had been slashed. Which was why they couldn't just patch up the holes or whatever, because they were cuts about four inches long. I don't know why they didn't slash all four of my tires, but whatever, whoever it is are a bunch of jerks!

So now I'm at home, alone, still feeling like someone is watching me. I definitely feel another presence in the apartment, and while it isn't necessarily a feeling of fear, I certainly feel uncomfortable. Like someone is constantly watching me. it makes it unco9mfortable to change clothes and shower, because no one wants to do that in front of other people. Least of all someone like me, who is scrawny, geeky, and unattractive. :)

So in about an hour I get to go run some errands, to get some food and to pick up some new books. I've read most of the books I have, and I'm bored and want to read something. To at least distract myself until Barry gets home. I think I'm going to pick up the rest of the Ender books by Orson Scott Card, which, if you haven't read them, are some amazing books. Start with Ender's Game, and you'll be absolutely hooked. I heard they're making it into a movie. I hope it's good, although it would be easy for them to screw up.

I hope you're all well. Sorry about the length of yesterday's post. There was just a lot to tell.
