Bad Luck

[sunlioness]

In Greece it's Tuesday the 13th that's considered unlucky and most of them have been proved unlucky to me. Fridays don't affect me

I was supposed to go to a comedy club tonight with friends and it got postponed until tomorrow night.

My uncle came thru a quintuple heart bypass surgery successfully.

I received three, not wait....... 5 new hits from an on-line dating service.

I exceeded the range of motion from my PT (physio) session today.

I saw a funny urinal on the net today.

The tequila is cold.

All in all, I'd have to say it's been a bloody good day.

i just finished a bruschetta slice..... lots of diced tomato's....


then I remembered that tomato's are being pulled off the grocery shelves because of salmonella poisioning....

i'm wondering if i'm gonna die...

my internet access is finally working again, and I'm in Chiller's camp with Fri the 13th being a lucky day (not so sure about the movie, you've got mail was scary enough, lol)

I was too lazy to untangle the hoses, so I spent time running back and forth from the garden to the water faucet with a watering can. My wife came out after putting the kids to bed. She grabbed the watering can and ran back and forth from the water to a couple of new trees and her flowers......

5 minutes after we went back into the house, thunder crashed and it was a downpour out there.

How is everyone else doing on Friday the 13th?

I just dropped my cellphone in a cup of coffee!!!!

I had exams....

One of my clients bought me ice cream, my other client bought me some Cheetos, and a friend bought me a Cinnabon and an absolutely delicious White Russian and gave me $10 for gas money on top of that. I'd say its a pretty darn good day. Fattening, but good.

Now I have to spend my Friday night doing homework so I don't have to do it Sunday so I can hang out with my daddy

Yesterday was my unlucky day. The dishwasher broke and flooded the kitchen and basement. Then the bathtub drain started to leak and got the other side of the basement wet. Today wasn't half bad work was slow but other than that I mainly hung out with friends and talked for $2.65 an hour plus tips. :lmao: I also had some time to practice using my camera on manual mode because it was so slow. I like the control is all I can say. (insert evil laugh here) But Friday the 13th has normally been a good day for me. I even got married on 6-6-06!!!

Saturday 14th June

Dear friends, I write this note to you to tell you of my plight
And at this time of writing I am not a pretty sight
Me body is all black and blue and me face a deadly grey
So I hope you’ll understand just why I’m not post-ing today

I was working on the fourteenth floor, some bricks I had to clear
And throwing them down from such a height was not a good idea
The Foreman wasn’t very pleased, he’s such an awful sod
He said I’d have to take them down the ladder, in me hod

Now shifting all those bricks by hand, it seemed so bloody slow
So I hoisted up a barrel and secured a rope below
But in my haste to do me job, I was too blind to see
The barrel, full of building bricks, was heavier than me

When I went down and loosed the rope, the barrel dropped like lead
And clinging tightly to the rope, I started up instead
I shot up like a rocket and to my dismay I found
That halfway up, I met the bloody barrel, coming down

Now the barrel broke me shoulder, as to the ground it sped
And when I reached the top I struck the pulley with me head
I still hung on, though numb and shocked, from this almighty blow
And the barrel spilled out half the bricks, fourteen floors below

Now when the bricks had fallen from the barrel to the floor
I then outweighed the barrel, and I started down once more
Still clinging tightly to the rope I headed for the ground
And fell among the broken bricks now scattered all around

As I lay there moaning, I was sure I’d past the worst
But the barrel struck the pulley wheel and the bottom then did burst
A shower of bricks came down on me, I didn’t have a hope
And as I was losing consciousness, I let go the bloody rope

Now, the barrel, it being heavier, it started down once more
And it landed right across me as I lay there on the floor
I broke three ribs and my left arm, and I can only say
I hope you’ll understand just why I’m not post-ing today

Jed-ohh...
