    After a HORRIBLE weekend, I just ahd a nice welcome to wed. today. A nice College Station welcome. Nothing nicer than finding a $30 parking fine after being less than 45 secs late to pay the meter.

    I had my cellphone set (alarm) to go off. It went off, and we were all like 25 secs late to pay it. and yet, there were already parking fines. I now own the Beautiful (ha) city of College Station $30. I was planning on spending that on BBQ tonight with my friends. Damnit.

    We were celebrating the last day of shchool this school year. damn. :mad: :mad:

    EDIT: Just mailed my check! :mad:

    Yeah, but this money was going to be spent on food. (I am a college kid).

    Oh well, I guess I will start making money when I start working full time next week. :eek:

    the girl with the glasses, who isn't very pretty, and is always looking at you in class, ask her to pay it because you have a bbq you need to go to. For her kindness you will let her do your take home exam for you.

    :D

    LMAO. well, we are still doing the BBQ, but more people have to chip in now. Because my buddy and I are now shorter on Cash. I just hope he didn't get arrested. He was talking trash to the parking meter dude who showed up when we were going to leave. I jumped into my truck and left because I didn't want any trouble. I can't get in touch with him.

    ( I am engineering, there aren't many girls ....if any, in my classes. )

    yeah, it's just a summer job.

    I am either working at a local Italian Resturant (Fratillas) or Best Buy.

    I may not be $30 down, but I just got through playing softball. Pulled my hamstring slightly in the first game. Hitless in the second game until there's 2 down last inning down by 4, bases loaded..I take the first strike..swing at the second pitch..AND POP IT UP FOUL TO THE CATCHER...ballgame!...oh I'm pissed...and to make matters worse..I get home and my air conditioning is BROKE at my house..so it looks like my parents have a new roomate till it gets fixed..the only good thing about the situation is that my fiance's dad owns a AC company..personally I'd rather pay $30 bucks.

    Waiter maybe? Seems like tips would be better $ than Best Buy, but I never cared for hassling with hungry/thirsty people at restaurants.

    Random vent: why are all my friends so weird? Nobody seems to make any sense. You never know what to expect from one day to the next. I could go on about their weird habits and how hard it is to make plans. Maybe they need to be on some different meds. :)

    Where are all the normal people? Not hanging out with us freaks, that's for sure. :rolleyes: Of course, why exactly did I end up with all the weird people...?

    Thank goodness for all you perfectly normal, sane, rational, well-adjusted people on the BBS. :D ;)

    Sane, rational, well adjusted, BBS?

    We are talking about the same place that's still arguing about Steve Francis almost a year after he's been traded and nairing your sack right?

    I'm sure someone I work with has to read this, so, here it goes.

    Who the hell is the moron who decided that only one guy should close wednesday nights? Cart runs, making sure restrooms are suitable for human use, as well as a bunch of other BS. 6 straight hours of it! *******. I need a new job, and am actually in the process of finding another one. Time to GO CRAZY!

    Miguel;

    Here is some advice that I learned the hard way.

    GET THE HELL OUT OF FOODSERVICE!

    If you're in school study hard so you can get in a field where you never have to mop a floor, scour a grill and especially clean out a grease trap.

    There's a lot time's that my current job sucks but it beats the hell out of when I was working in restaurants, even good restaurants.

    LOL, Pubic service.

    WEll, the BBQ was great. But I'm still short on the $30 which I spent on NOTHING!

    I had my cellphone set (with alarm) to go off when we needed to pay. We showed up with our quarters ready to pay, and yet. It seemed the meter man was ready to charge us, like he had the bill typed up before our time expired.

    GOod news, my buddy didn't get arrested. :)

    Yay for your buddy Uprising!

    If it makes you feel any better about being short on cash, I just got my IRS refund. I was planning on making my debt slightly smaller, but now I need to use it to start another string of debts and eventually make my debt larger in the long run.... But OTOH, I got a call for an interview on a paid summer internship! So maybe things will be allright.


    Isabel, I totally feel you on the people here on the BBS being much more sane, rational, and well adjusted than the friends we somehow manage to have. But then again, most of the crazy wierdos I hang out with are also legally blind in one way or another....

    100 dollar phone bill - 25 seconds off alarm
    30 dollars parking ticket - not that much
    30 dollar bbq party - chipped in friends

    Leaving your friend to deal with the cops about your parking ticket = PRICELESS
