It was just one of those days today - 04-23-2009, 03:26 PM


I started out by returning some ammo to CTD because it was the wrong kind.
Whoever put the price on the boxes covered up the GAP marking (shooters will know what this is).
Then, I went to the theater box office to get some tickets for Driving Miss Daisy tomorrow night. Got three tickets. two were on one side of the theater and one was exactly opposite on the other side. Had to go back to the BO and straighten it out. Now I get home and notice one ticket says "obstructed view". Gimme a break here.
The fan is not cycling on my car and if I am stuck at a light for long, the temp starts to skyrocket. Geesh !!!
I go to Office Depot for some Avery labels. I have the form number and everything. Can't find them. The clerk says "let me check the computer". " I guess we don't stock that number". Then I spy the exact forms but they are in the wrong case.
I go to check out and the clerk overcharges me $2.
I've been getting strange alerts on my cell phone for the past week. I called Sprint (don't get me started) and they said "just live with it". Not a good answer.
Lunch at Jack in the Box. Order the Sirloin burger with swiss and grilled onions. It comes out with no onions.
Hey, it's almost 4 o'clock, what else could get screwed up today ?
Did I mention I went to the ATM but had left the card at home ??
Oh yeah ! Get a note that someone wants to book a wedding. Already
booked that day... No, they won't change the date for me....

p.s. some good news. Since I do some photo work for the theater they're going to upgrade the tix to VIP. (I don't know ecactly what that means, but it couldn't be worse than what I have now.)

Like I tell my wife--it's always darkest just before everything goes totally black.

I see that dark cloud hanging directly over Ft. Worth from my office in Dallas. Hope the winds blow it elsewhere tomorrow.

What range are you going to? Oh wait, you're in Dallas. If you were in San Antonio, I'd be worried you'd be right next to me with that streak of good luck you're having. Somehow I think one of us might end up getting shot in the arse!

I can't believe you'd so blatantly insult me like this !!

I am not in Dallas. I am in Ft. Worth.

Retired from church work, still in the daily work grind, I am convinced that God has a terrific sense of humor and when He wants a good laugh He...sends me one of "those" days...is that Him I hear chuckling now?

Smile, things could be worse (I know, you smiled and, sure enough, things got worse.)
