santa is here already
Its official I am on the bad list this year. I thought you got on the bad list by doing bad things, but apparently it's quite the opposite, you're on the bad list when bad things happen to you. Nah just kidding... I probably did something really bad and karma just happens to get its revenge right before the holidays.Yesterday, Xmas Eve, I was going to get my new tires for my car, when I suddenly was stuck in traffic. Than bam, I got rear ended. The force pushed me forward and I hit the car in front of me. All the while my left arm was on the steering wheel, and my arm locked in place. Now I have a chweck (Ch-we'-k: crooked, abnormal, dysfunctional, deformed, etc.) arm for xmas. As the first minutes of shock pass through me, I regained consciousness and pulled my car over to the side of the freeway. I was shacking so badly and my neck hurt so bad, I started to cry... boo-hoo. It turns out; the guy who hit me had zero registration and zero insurance. (haha, could I be any luckier? haha) It wouldn't have been a big deal if I were fine b/c my car actually survived the double impact, but unfortunately the left side of my upper body didn't. Since I couldn't move my arm i couldn't drive my car b/c I drive stick, damnit. Not being able to drive equals a tow truck, which by the end of the night meant $140 down the tube. :\ My sister arrived a little bit later and she took me to a doctor. No fractures, I'm all good, just in pain.
Other than that I had a great day. I am actually pretty chipper right now. Why? Because it could have been worse, way worse, but it wasn't I'm doing good without a full functioning left arm. Who needs a left arm anyway?? I'm right handed. :P All that matters is that I get to spend the holiday with my family. Also, another special someone has really just made my life a million times better so all in all I'm good... actually great. Take the good in with the bad, right?
Another good thing about yesterday is that my boss gave me a $250 xmas bonus... I've only worked 4 days. Woo-hoo, obviously that money went to the towing costs, but hey it was a really nice gesture. Thanks boss! You're the greatest!
They say that with every event there is a learning experience. I actually learned a couple of things
1. Don't drive with a pinto behind you
2. God works in mysterious ways
3. I am lucky
4. I can't wait for this year to be over!!!
I hope you're holidays are as good as mine... I know I'm tough competition, but hey you can try to have a better xmas than me... come on I dare you! :)
To my family, To my friends, To the special people in my life, to people everywhere...
Merry Christmas!
