At least Queen accepts me

Really, life? Really? I have no money. I just needed to hold out for a measly two days until my next paycheck and you break my bike again?

My back bike break (say that ten times fast) clamped into the wheel while coming home from work. Yet another repair! As I have nothing for the train, I had to remove the break pad and hope I don't die Friday.


Oh, I'll die all right. It'll be a spectacular death. Just you watch, pedestrians.

Apparently I wasn't sad enough. So life threw an extra blanket of depression over me. Nice and toasty! The writing job I was shooting for (which I also had an in on) fell through. I got an email that essentially said I wasn't a good enough writer. I denied one job, another denied me. Back to square one.

You know, I'm aware that I'm not a tip-top writer. But I don't think the samples I sent in for consideration were that bad. The company was getting a high number of applicants. So hopefully I wasn't ripped apart by some nerdly drone, bashing me over "poor sentence structure" and "barely getting a grip of the English language." I did write the word cunt a lot. That's what edgy writers do.

This is a frustrating week. And why is it so humid, Chicago? Let up!

    Hey, don't feel bad, I had to spend almost $600 on a new serpentine belt tensioner for my car. I still haven't been able to catch up on my other bills because of that nonsense, so now I'm even further behind.

    You know what? I just don't care anymore.

    Thank God for booze!!!
