One of the worst Mondays I've evar had in god knows how long so I thought I'd share some of the highlights with you all. :)
FOR ONE, I'm late to work. Had to pick up my truck at the dealer after being service, new tires, blah blah blah.
While otw to work, at a major intersection some IDIOT blows through a red light and comes to a screaching halt literally 2-3 feet away from T-boning me. "Ok this is going to be a good start to the week I can tell already" I say to myself.
I'm already late, trying to rush to work as fast as I can without getting a ticket from the local fuzz who think they are super-cops here. We are building a house up in the hills of East Bumble Fk. Miles and Miles away from civilization.
Lots of farm country and what not for one to enjoy on the Ride in. Some nice long roads to make up time on. :) kewl.
As I come speeding over the crest of a hill, not too fast tho, and as Im drinking my hot coffe fron D'n D no less, I just about hit these idiots walking down the middle of the road paying no mind to the rest of the world around them....

I SLAM on my brakes, and sit there and try to figure out if I am still sleeping or what. WTF are these stupid Lamas doing walking down the damn road!?! I say. One almost became a new hood ornament for my truck mind you.
Thank god I still had my camera in the truck from a car show we were at just a day earlier, because not one person at work was going to beleive me when I told them I almost hit a lama otw there.
And if that wasnt enough, the idiotic mechanic didnt put my center caps back on right and the the left front came flying off a few more miles down the road and hit a tree and smashed into 5 or 6 peices.
I wont even get into stapling my tumb with the impact stapler today while putting down tyvek on a wall. A nice 3/4 inch staple secured tightly into my finger nail. :mad:
Yep, this was one of those days that I should have just stayed home. One of those Mondays that never seems to end. I just thought I'd share/whine with you all. :)

Look at it this way... Your week is sure to get better. ;)

Or not. I don't think anything can top Lama's in the road.

I think you're alright.

You're fortunate. I swear these bastards time their morning crossings to the tune of a M54 engine bearing down on them at 4:30am each morning :mad: :mad:

I just got finished my work week yesterday, after working 10 hrs on Saturday and Sunday. Today, I had to drag myself out of bed when the sun woke me up, and then had to leave the house by 11am to do lunch with a friend. School doesn't start until next Monday, so I guess I'll have to continue waking up when my body tells me, and find stuff to do this week until I go fishing on Friday. Damn Mondays. :p

Err, I didn't follow that one...

Yah, thankfuly it was my left thumb and most typing doesnt involve that finger too much.
hehe, it was pretty chilly this morning and I was on the top of a ladder reaching too far trying to finish putting the crap up, didnt feel like getting a taller ladder just for 10 seconds worth of work. The reach was a little much and I paid for it in the end! hehe.
Hurts like hell now tho. For someone that never gets hurt I guess I've been pretty lucky and long over due for something stupid to happen. :)
Im just glad tomorrows tuesday. hehe :)

I dunno but up here whatever you kill on the road with a car, truck or what have you, is yours to keep.
Wool fer da wife (that's worth a gummer) and Lama steaks fer the bbq.
I would of dropped the hammer, claimed the insurance and carcus and then sue the owner.
Who wants to go to work on monday anyhooo?

The trick is to line up its anus with one of your headlights, preferably the passenger side but any will do.
All kidding aside, at night if it happens and they're in the middle of the road look'n at you, turn off your headlights, lay on the horn and slam on da brakes.
