Not! This year has sucked for me already. Let's start in chronological order:

12/30:
Somehow my flight back to Atlanta didn't suck. And the MARTA ride home didn't suck. Things are looking up!

Unfortunately, I see an announcement in the elevator and realize that I'm potentially screwed out of $500 because my homeowners insurance company failed to send out the fax that I requested earlier in December.

My cable modem sporadically fails.

12/31:
Cable sucks more today.

Annoyed that two of my better friends decide to spend their NYE with someone they know I have major issues with.

I go out for dinner before heading to a bar and I gotta crap real bad after eating. The restaurant's bathroom isn't looking so hot so I take a quick trip home to poop and get my coat which I foolish left at home earlier. I turn on the bathroom lights and both light bulbs blow at the same time. I'm poopin' with the dim closet and shower lights.

Auburn wins. I root against the SEC every chance I get.

1/1:
Barely healed emotional wounds get unexpectedly poked and prodded. Not happy about this.

Georgia wins.

Cable barely works at all now.

1/2:
I wake up early and can't fall back asleep.

I decide to get an early start on my day. My very needy cat recognizes that I'm back to my work schedule and is not happy. She pees on my bed in protest.

I yell at my cat and throw everything (except the cat) into the washer. Washer makes loud racket during the spin cycle because the load is unbalanced. I did manage to fix my cable modem during this time though.

I go outside. It's damn cold.

I get to work. I haven't worked in like two and a half weeks.

Lunchtime. Everyone decides to go to Fuddrucker's. I don't really like Fuddrucker's. It's not that the food is bad but it's not a great value and it's not gonna help me drop a few pounds.

I call up my insurance company. I'm almost definitely screwed out of $500.

I go to Target after work. Strangely, my car doesn't respond to any of the remote buttons. I use the key to open the door and the alarm blares loudly. There's like four people around and I feel like a dumbass.

From Target, I head across the street to Costco to pick up a few items. They don't have any regular incandescent bulbs for the bathroom light that I don't really have much faith in right now. I decide to take a chance on pricier compact fluorescents. I'll be really pissed if these blow too. However, I did find that they finally have frozen jumbo shrimp.

I get home all ready to make spicy seafood soup and I didn't have as many scallops as I thought. Screw it, it's a Michelina's night for me.

I pop in the new light bulbs. Not as bright as I had hoped. I guess I can deal with that.

Happy 2008!
