Ugh. *dead*
Jul. 19th, 2003 09:49 amSo. I've been running nonstop since yesterday around 10AM.
Work at 10AM, worked on the computer I posted about yesterday. God, that thing needs so much work and there's so much I need to delete off of it. Off at 1PM, went over to my mom's, car wasn't there, so I caught the bus up to the mall. Chatted with Rob at Suncoast, went over to MCI the do paperwork and get my drug screen crap. Over to the pet store, got money off TJ for the cell bill. Stopped at the new $1 movie theater they're putting in and filled out an application, stopped at Shoe Carnival and got an application for there, as well. Then, went over and stood in line for 10 minutes at Cingular to pay the bill, cause thay onlu ever have 3 people working there and 2 are ALWAYS helping NEW customers with getting phones and shit. When all I want to do is take 5 minutes to pay my fucking bill and go on my way. >_< Fuckers. Back over to the mall, walked around, then back over to the pet store to sit in the car and wait for TJ go get off of work.
After that, we went out to the Village, found out they close at 8PM. We thought it was 9PM.
Back out to the car after buying a few things, and everything goes downhill.
See, TJ gave me the key to unlock the car so I could put my papers and crap in it and all. The key was on my Hello Kitty keychain, which is -usually- on my beltloop. I left it in the car. With the cell phone.
You can only imagine how pissed TJ was with me.
So, I got over to the gas station, to see if they can help.
Here's where the fun begins.
The Village is on the corner of Meridian and Mahoning in -Youngstown-. The gas station is on the corner of Meridian and Mahoning in -Austintown-. Remember this, kids. It turns out, that the Youngstown Police will not unlock cars anymore. Why? I don't know. And the Austintown police won't cross Meridian and unlock cars because it's out of their fucking township.
Yes. Exactly. What kind of bullshit is that? And we couldn't get in the car to move it to the gas station, anyhow.
So, this guy from the gas station asks me if I need a ride back to Warren, cause he's going that way. I really don't want to take a ride from some stranger, so I have him take me back over to the car. Completely ignoring that I didn't want to take a ride from a stranger. Yes. But I didn't get a bad vibe from him, and I can take care of myself in a public place.
So, after me and TJ fighting and shit, the guy has me call a towing company, and he has them come out with a slim jim to unlock the car.
The price? $35.
What? You and TJ don't have money, Alaina! You can't pay that!
Yes, I know. But here's the kicker.
He gave me the $35, plus a couple dollars extra for something to drink.
Proof that decent people do still exist, I guess. I had him give me his address so I could pay him back in the future. Cause he was really patient and everything, even though he was going out to meet his buddies at Lake Milton.
TJ took the extra cash as a "Having To Deal With Your Stupid Shit" fee.
But we got home, and then my mom calls. See, I had called the market down the street from her to see if they could get her and gave her bring me the keys. They told her to go to our place first, and I had called home to tell the hag to tell my mom not to worry about it. Turns out her stupid ass went out to the Village first, then was complaing about how she didn't think she had the gas to get back into town. Well, y'know, I told you what to do. Had we done things MY WAY, that wouldn't have happened. Augh.
Anyhow, in other news, I'm crampy. Gotta go for my drug test Monday sometime between working at the thrift store and then getting to work at MCI at 4PM. I may have to call off at the thrift store in order to get it done in time. And, uh, can you take a drug test if your on your period? >_>? I honestly don't know. And I -have- to take it in order to work. Lovely.
