The Fickle Finger of Fate
Quick update for those who weren't already aware; last Sunday was something of an interesting day. I'm still not sure whether it turned out to my advantage or not.
On my way to
grysar's party on Sunday (and practically in his backyard, too), I managed to crash into an SUV while trying to turn around. The airbag actually hit me this time, because I was leaning forward a little, so I got kind of beat up - but I think most of it's because the airbag ripped my sunglasses off. As of Tuesday, they're not sure whether or not my car is a total loss. Hopefully, it's repairable; that'll be much cheaper.
arterich stopped by the accident scene to help out; turns out he hadn't gotten to the party yet, but was only half a mile away. So, an hour later, we finally got to Greg's party. Yay!
I had originally asked Omar if I could get a ride back to my place, since he was travelling roughly in that direction, but I wound up getting a ride back to my house from Andrew and Monica, since they offered, and it let me stay at the party longer.
I got the pipe patched up Monday morning with some assistance from my parents, and the floor is cleaned up now, so I just need to get the ceiling replaced.
Since my air conditioning isn't working properly, Omar also volunteered to put his dehumidifier in my basement to help with drying out the carpet, which as of Tuesday night, was still pretty damp.
