Okay, so Thursday was a full of classic 'me' moments:
First of all** I had a really dirty car and decided I would go to the automatic car wash to clean it up a bit. I wanted to go to the only one in Starkville that I knew of that had the actual old-school 'brushes,' b/c nowadays, all you can find are the touchless car washes. It's kinda like a bidet....just squirts you with water. No wiping, not really clean IMHO.
Anyway, I pull behind the gas station, and it's one of those tracks with curbs on both sides, so I can't back out easily once I'm in. I get to the machine that takes money....the bill part is covered with duct tape, which is cool b/c I've $7.00 in (mostly) quarters. I begin loading the quarters, and $2 in, I realize it's not taking them. So I press the 'press for service' button and ask the lady if the wash was working b/c it's not taking my change. She tells me then I'll have to come inside to pay for the gas. I don't really want to go in and do it, so now I'm faced with how to leave: do I uneasily back up through the track, or do I drive straight thru the wash. (and CAN I drive straight thru the was w/o getting a wash?) Well, after debate, I just put it in drive and go through. In afterthought, I don't think you are meant to drive thru. Needless to say, I just spazzed and drove away.
Later that day......I have to go to the UP Bank in Eupora to cash my paycheck, and b/c they don't know me there, I have to either tell them my account # or my SSN. So I'm thubming thru my wallet to find my account #, and decide to just tell them my social. So as I'm putting my wallet back in my pocket, it slips from my hand.......all of my business/gift/ID cards go across the floor of the lobby. Needless to say: there were 2 people in line behind me. So I just muttered a few choice words, took my cash, picked up my cards and left.
So went my Thursday.
Oh,**NOTE: I do realize that it was my own stubborn pride and pure laziness that led to this event, so if you want to cut me down, please email me. In the meantime, I just hope that you would view these events in the context of stuff that just happens to me in general.
