Day After My Birthday

I suppose it would make sense to start with yesterday: I find out I am missing my credit card. I make plans for the evening and then fall ill in the afternoon and cancel them. On my way out to meet up with someone at 4:50pm, Lauren calls and tells me she busted the mirror off her car in a small accident. Its snowy and messy out now, and I can’t help her right away. I end up over 20 minutes late to my meeting and then head out to meet up with Lauren…

Then as I am following a car through a yellow light, someone oncoming, making a left turn, pulls into my lane. So I smash into her car. Pfft. Luckily I was driving slow enough where I had almost no damage. The other woman’s corner light got knocked out and her bumper was cracked.

So Lauren and I finally get together and decide to fix the mirror the next day (today). We walk down to a local bar, and on our way home, I notice that my upstairs window is open. My roommate had opened it because it was too warm. I informed him that my heating bill last month was almost $200.

Anyway, today, I stop over at Lauren’s to do some true Minnesotan workmanship to her mirror.
