What a Weekend

So this past week has been not the greatest week ever, you know with school winding down and the start of the spring working season things can really add up and get really busy. But there has been more stuff going on on-top of this and it all added up this weekend and I am just done with it.

A little while ago I realized that my dishwasher had stopped working, it was a little upsetting but I figured I can make this work, my roommate is out of town but his dad is an appliance repair guy so he can fix it when he gets back. Then a few days later I realize that the stove and oven are not working, this is starting to get a little bit strange, quite a coincidence that it would all happen at once like that. And you know even at this point I wasn't overly upset because I figured it would be fixed eventually.

Then I am cleaning some things and I was moving some mail around that was for the Landlords and I find a notice that was not in an envelope... Turns out or hydro was being limited because the bills were not being payed by our landlords. Now this really upset me, when it was just a coincidence and I figured it would just need to be a wire or something fixed then it was fine, but there was a limit on our electricity for something that was agreed was the landlords responsibility to pay. Anyways it just all added up and was way too much for one weekend, and I have been relatively upset about it since. Especially when it turned out this evening that my dryer was not working either. So I am currently living with no stove, oven, dishwasher or dryer. Looks like I will be microwaving a lot more often.

Well Vancouver on Sunday, so at least I have that to look forward to.

Keys

Something I wrote during my class today on what happened to me this morning. And my thoughts on the issue.

So today I drove to school so I could drive to a volleyball tournament later on in the day. When I got to school I went to pull the keys out of the ignition and they were stuck. Not to fret (this has happened before) I just went to start the car again because the key usually pulls out the second time. And when I go to turn the key, it does not even turn. So my key is now stuck in my car and it won't turn. Luckily my car is old enough that it actually has a different key for the door, and another key for the ignition, so I lock the door and hope that when I get back at the end of the day the car will just work. Now I am currently thinking that the only thing that could make this situation better is if I get back to my car and I see a ticket on my car. And I open it to read "I was going to give you a ticket but looks like your in enough trouble already."

I got back to my car and there was no ticket, and I got my car to start. Although now when I open the door my car always beeps as if the key is always in the ignition. It's not, but w/e the joy of the 91' Ford Escort.
