Last night Waste came for his stuff. Except he couldn't fit it all in his friend's car. I managed to get him to take the hot wheels, but the legos and giant sword are still in my kitchen. Also, he forgot the money he had told me he would pay me back. He promised to come back and give it to me before he left town last night.
Then he called after I was asleep. I guess he told me he wasn't coming. I don't know what happened, but the money never came and if he's left town... then I will be very very angry.
I was counting on that cash to go to the liquor store and get some change. So I could ride the bus today. Because it's been pouring down rain since Friday. Schools are closed in neighboring counties due to the rain. It's really really gross and wet out there.
And now I can say that like an authority... since I was forced to walk through it this morning to the nearest gas station... to get cash from the ATM. Except that the ATM machine was down. The cashier said there were problems with the lines due to the rain. Fuck Fuck Fuck. Okay, so I walked back. The bus passed me while I was walking home. But I had no dollar to ride it with.
So, I hopped on my bike and rode it to work.
Note to anyone who rides a bicycle... That whole air pressure in the tires thing... Yeah, making sure that's right really helps. I stopped and got air for my front tire (and cash for the bus ride home) on my way to work. What a difference that makes.
I arrived at work dripping wet. My pants are filthy from all the spray. My sweater and blouse are okay, I was wearing my green rubber rainslicker.
I've been here for four hours now. My pants are finally dry. I've been using the space heater as a blow dryer. My shoes are still very wet. I don't think they'll ever actually be dry...
