It's Been Awhile
Still alive over here, although after the week I had last week, I'm generally amazed that I am. It was one hellish week of work, which I thankfully cut short by taking a half day off on Friday. I used the afternoon off to go home and catch up on sleep, and man, it was great!
So lets see, what else about last week sucked? I already mentioned blowing up Elena's mom's PC, but all is good on that front, thankfully. The other big doozy of the week was that I got into a car accident on Thursday. I was heading to the mall for lunch and accidentally slammed into the car in front of me on the off ramp for the expressway. No damage to my car, go figure, inside the thing is falling apart, but on the outside its built like a tank. Very little damage to the car I hit, a little scratch on the bumper and the tail lights are a little out of place, but still functional. Thankfully no one was hurt, but the two ladies in the car I hit were rubbing their necks by the time we were done exchanging info. We have the same insurance company, so its not in their best interest to go after me with a fradulent lawsuit. Whatever, I'm not going to worry about it. Its done, it happened, I contacted my insurance company immediately, so now I just sit back and wait.
The weekend was good. Elena came over Friday night, we got some dinner and just chilled out, same thing we did on Saturday during the day. She worked Saturday night, and I went out to John Harvard's with Seth, his girlfriend Shari and Brett. I got really drunk, Elena met up with us after she was done working, and then we went home, where we spent all of Sunday just vegging out. Yeah, now that my girlfriend is back in town I lead a real exciting life!
In other big news, Brett, who was supposed to get married in November, isn't anymore. And oh yeah, its going to get ugly between him and his ex-fiance. We're talking lawsuits, unless she gives him her ring back. She skipped town to her parents in Maryland without even leaving a note or anything, called the cops so they would be there when she moved her stuff out in case he came home, and of course, took the ring with her. From everyone I've talked to in my office, since they are lawyers, he's legally entitled to it back, so hopefully he'll get it without having to pay a boat load for litigation.
I feel really bad for him and have been trying to get him to go have a beer or two with me for like two weeks, funny how when we finally do I'm the one that got hammered, but thats besides the point. The problem is Brett is very paranoid and obsesses about things to the point where you want to knock him unconscious just to shut him up. But I guess he's got a right to complain. Poor bastard.
Alright, back to work on a wonderful Monday morning.

Sorry to hear about the car accident and the ugly breakup. I hope it all works out for him!
