The Bad Day Thread

[Rtificial]

I'm back for round 2 and I'll sum this up.

Damn the sorry co-workers I got not leaving me anything prepped up for breakfast so I'm having to run all over the place hunting items needed for the morning rush. Damn stupid servers doing whatever the hell they feel like and not telling me and screwing up my orders and wasting food. Damn my stupid boss's hair brained ideas he doesn't think thru and expects me to pull out my ass.

Hell with it, I could dig up some more stuff, but I'm off work and its time to chill.

I got a speeding ticket today. Was doing 56 in a 40. Insurance level starts serious violations at 16+ above, so I got fucked by 1 mph from minor to serious. I've got to pay $140 for the ticket, probably another $800-900 for the insurance (anyone know how much insurance usually goes up for a speeding ticket?) and no car for a month. And I lost lots of money playing poker after that.

Shit man that sucks. I have yet to get a speeding ticket which is amazing since I speed pretty much all the time. How much did you lose playing poker? That is something I know a little bit about myself. There is a huge poker game tonight, but I'm forcing myself to sit it out since I've been the unluckiest guy at poker the past few weeks.

My night sucked last night. Had a huge bonfire at my house but I had way to much to drink so the entire time I was either passed out on the ground or puking in the woods. And now I have a massive headache.

I woke up this morning being told that my dad had a stroke. He's doing ok all things considered, but it's still rough.

Was playing around even for most of the night and by the time i got to the final table, i had to pick a hand to go all in with, and as usual, I lost on the river with it.

Not too big of a deal I guess but all this shit leaves me with hardly anytime to do anything I want to do for myself. I tend to look at days as hourly segments now, not as whole days. "What can I do between such and such time" sort of thing. On top of all this, I hardly see any friends anymore, because when I'm off everyone else is busy or whatever.

Weird, I've been doing the same thing lately.

Sounds a lot like the character from About A Boy...

Update: I'm pleading not guilty on the ticket, despite being 100% guilty. I'll find something grounds for dismissal damn it, or at least get the mph down to 54.

i know in harris county (Ie houston) the old trick of going to court hoping the ticket issuing officer won't show up is something they're stopping now, dont know how exactly except that i read an article mentioning it. maybe you can get by on that *shrug*

[Rich]

If he does show, I'll be prepared.

I can't afford the insurance. Hopefully I'll get a plea bargain and not have to deal with any of it.
