I need a tougher laptop | Main | The new Pope

April 19, 2005

This has not been my best week!

Yesterday, I cracked my laptop case. This morning I got up, went out to the car and there is a huge dent in it. It's a rental car. Fortunately, Diner's Club covers any damage, but I'm so irritated that someone would hit it (probably when pulling out of a parking space) and not even leave a note.

And, if John didn't mention it, yesterday, not only did I break my laptop, but when I went to Barnes and Noble to buy another book to read, it ends up that I bought a book I had already read.

And then, Andy sends me an email - he is going to get an apartment or house with two girls for the summer - if he can find a job. He said the way things look, we may have to call him McAndy.

Well, he is 20, after all.

Sigh.

Lessee...ah. Here it is: Ice bag for your head. A Pox on the Anonymous Toad who Hit Your Car. Ten foot pole on the son and moving and job issue. New laptop case.

There. All better.

Could be worse. He's shacking up with his now wife.
He's joining the Peace Corps. ummm...Shacking up with his now pregnant girlfriend....;-)

There's always a flip side that's less shiny and neat. In all likeliness, the two lasses are just friends, it's been known to happen with well adjusted young men.

Oh, that's exactly what's going on. SWWBO is far more concerned that her baby won't be home for the summer. That empty nest sort of thing. His best friend has been doing exactly that for two years already.

Andy has thus far displayed good judgement when it comes to matters of the differences between boys and girls, and I doubt is likely to change that pattern!
