Karma?

I am trying to think what I have done lately to bring such bad luck my way. My roommate was driving me nuts yesterday because her boyfriend is ALWAYS here. And she never cleans anything. I drove to my dad's in Spokane to get away. Driving always makes me feel better. On the way home my check engine light came on. I stopped to make sure my gas lid was on tight and that my oil wasnt low since it was overdue for a change. It wasnt either of those things. Then as I am driving through Coeur d' Alene, some mysterious object came out of no where and hit my windshield, sending little shards of glass and glass dust all over my front seat. I didnt see what hit me, and didnt stop to find out. My first thought was someone was shooting cars or throwing rocks and I wasnt about to stop and see who or what it was. Anyway the damage is bad enough I have to replace my windshield which is going to cost almost $200. We will see on Tuesday whats wrong with my engine. And my brakes need replaced as well. I lost the title to my car so I am over due on getting it registered here in Idaho. I got pulled over for that today but luckily didnt get a ticket. To top it all off, while I was escaping my roommate, my friend from CDA came down for the night and wanted to hang out but I wasnt here! I did get to have lunch with him today though. Wasnt nearly enough time before he had to head back up to work but it was nice to hang for a little while anyway. On the brighter side I have lost 13 pounds and am in the lead at work for our weight loss contest. The winner gets a gift card toward new work clothes. I am only 2 pounds ahead of second place and 3 pounds ahead of third place so I have to get my butt in gear so I can hold onto my lead.

Missing Roommate?

Nothing new really going on. Spent the first night in almost two weeks hanging out with my roommate. The first week in June we worked opposite schedules. The first weekend in June we were both gone. Last week she had company from out of town. This weekend she was gone as well. She finally came home tonight. We vegged out in the living room watching movies, eating pizza, and doing jig saw puzzles. Totally lame but relaxing and fun. It was nice to catch up.

My family abandoned me again. I miss them like crazy. Hopefully I will be getting another early saturday shift followed by sunday and monday off so i can drive over and visit.
