My goal today was no goal. Or the goal of doing nothing.... not sure. Either way it didn’t turn out well. After I listed what was left I sat down to work on the diamond painting. I was only like 20 pieces in when Sammy called. I was confused as I thought he was still in bed, it’s a normal thing for me not to know if he’s actually home or not. I really need to start making a habit of checking the driveway when I get up. ..... I digress
Sammy called and said he was in a bit of a pickle. He stayed the night at his friends apartment, 3 of them live there. Addie, Josh, and Adam are his D&D group and the 3 he plans on moving in with. Addie woke and was headed to school but couldn’t find her keys. Sammy volunteered to just take her but when he went outside the car was gone. Adam then said he would take her but his truck was also gone. Addie jumped on the bus and hopefully made it to class. Sammy and Adam went to the office to find out their vehicles had been toed. They couldn’t figure out why.... the guys at the guard shack had always told him it was fine..... Right....
So what happens in this type of situation is someone who actually pays rent gets really sick of having to park a mile away and walk because someone else has 4 vehicles when they should only have 2-3..... so they complain to the office. The office then looks into it and sees that there are a bunch of unregistered cars in the parking lot so they call a tow truck. Problem fixed.
Adam had been driving his brothers car because his truck was being fixed. He had his brothers car registered and not his truck. Sammy was supposed to be parked in visitors parking.... which he wasn’t. So they both got towed because not following rules..... and they think it’s not their fault because the guard said it was okay .... ..... .. .. Hey it’s okay if you shoot heroin but if you get caught it’s still jail time.... even if you’ve been doing it for 7 months with a cop telling you it’s okay.
So he called me… I went and got them using the link Sammy had sent me for the apartment address.... ended up on the backside of the apartments a little lost. Also, my Low Fuel light had come on, that’s never happened before and I had no idea how much fuel I had left. I was starting to panic so I called him back to tell him I’m hitting a gas station before I get hit. Stopped at one and the damn power was out. None of the pumps were working. So I get back in the car head back to where the map said to go and then called Sammy in almost a full on panic. Things were very shaky .... getting a bit scared the world would spin, it has before when I was stressed and honestly I haven’t been that stressed since going on leave. He texted me just the address which in google maps took me to the correct side of the apartments. On the way I saw a Speedway so I stopped for gas first. Thank GOD. Things started getting back to decently normal as soon as I had an inkling that I would make it without the car dying.
Got gas, got the guys. Took Sammy to the bank because the tow place only takes cash..... Took the boys to the tow place to pay off $200 each for stupid tax. I sat and waited just to make sure all went well.
I got an order for shipment while I was out so I swung by the house and picked up the Waterfall faucet to mail out and to remove it from FB and craigslist. Ran through the Cook Outs drive thru for something to eat. Got back around 12:30 or so....
At 1 the ENT’s office called to let me know they got me in with the doctor I requested (as suggested by the person who is running the Meniere’s support group) on the 26th. The dumb doc I was supposed to see the 25th and being as they are both before the 29th I called idiots staff to cancel the appointment for the 25th. So dumby is fired. Hopefully, and according to folks he’s already seeing, this other doctor will take a couple moments and listen to me.
I called my mom and thanked her for being on standby to drive the 25th but that it would not be needed now as the 26th is a Tuesday and Rocky will be able to take me. We talked for about 30 mins .... all of that was outside without a coat.... and now I can’t get warm.... still no congestion.... but it’s coming for sure now. I’ve been out too much today for it not to be.
Rocky came home just after I finished talking to mom. I talked to him about my day and retreated to finally getting to work on the diamond painting. He came in about awhile later and said that Eddie needed help getting something. I said “sure just remember you are working tomorrow” He said “I know” and left.
Awhile later Sammy came in, freshly showered and ready for work to tell me I had a package come in .... and that he was thankful I came to his rescue.
The package is a replacement drawer for our fridge. Rocky broke one like Sunday? Monday? no questions I ordered one immediately. He’s still going to load it too heavy with beer but whatever.
It’s 6:20.... I plan on being asleep before 8… just one more color on the diamond painting I swear ;)
