Plot: I am going to lunch with my friend on campus, as I live in an apartment a little distance away. It's right after a medium-sized blizzard, but late enough in the afternoon for the plows to have been relatively thorough in most areas. I chance the drive, and realize the error of my decision when I reach the campus drive.

University police, "Looks like you got yourself into a nice accident here. Is that the Miller Road sign under your right tire, sir?"
Me, "Uh, yea. What's with the roads? Nothing's plowed here, and it's, like, 3 pm."
University police, "Oh, well. We don't necessarily plow these roads until the students have cleared out for the day. We can't risk colliding with them! And plus, there's enough salt on them. You shouldn't have had a problem."
Me, "Ha. Yes. My mistake. The, uh, mounds of salt should have been enough traction. Sorry about the sign."

*The passive-aggressive banter went on for a good half hour until the tow truck came to take my beautiful car off to the shop, where I learned that I had $2500 damages. A week went by, then two weeks. Then three before the insurance agency finally adjusts everything the way it should have been adjusted when we switched to Allstate in the first place, months ago, and they're ok to begin working on it.*

Me, "Hey, Dad- have the insurance guys done their thing yet?"
Dad, "Well, yea. They've been working on your car for a week, and it should be done."

*A week goes by. Then another!*

Dad, "Uh, hey. It'll be done by this coming Tuesday; there was a part they needed, but didn't order properly, so that's the hold-up. You're fine walking still, right?"
The moral of this story-

Always. Skip. Lunch.

Since he is on or near the equator, his country would most likely be aseasonal, no 'summer' and 'winter' but rather climate changes would be determined by the amount of rain falling, dry groups of months or rainy months. Rainy groups of months called ‘monsoons’ in some places.

Then why the heck did you ask about summer in February?

He was curious about having a hot summer in February because he doesn't have summer in february, or summer at all. I fail to see a problem with Archer's curiosity of climates in other parts of the world.

Edit:I myself am curious about global weather patterns, though this really isn't the thread to be talking about that I guess, so I won't digress into that.

Sorry, but the moral of the story is: Always Walk To Uni. People are -crazy- at mine. I take the bus, but whenever someone gives me a ride, I end up in the back, hiding, and rocking in a fetal position as I try to pretend everything will be alll-right. People tend to ignore traffic lights, students tend to do weird swirly crossings to get to class, in the middle of the road. I think it's like this in every school. They still should have plowed.

Rant: I've not slept one full night of sleep in two weeks.

Someone broke into my car last night. No windows broken, no damage to the car, and only a few things stolen. Yes, I acknowledge I was lucky.

However.

They took 4 CD's (meh) and this. That, my friends, is a Disto. I measure stuff for a living. It's rather important that I can measure rooms quickly and accurately, which makes that a rather important tool!

Now, how many of you knew what a Disto was before you saw that link? No, that is not a rangefinder with a laser pointer strapped to it, like you'll find at Home Depot. These babies are gorgeous. They also cost $650. And none are in stock here in Omaha. Work was lots of fun, let me tell you. I learned all sorts of tricks with tape measures today.

Ok, so, if any of you grow up to be thieves, will you at least not be stupid about it and 1) not take people's tools, and 2) not take random electronic gadgets that you don't recognize? You can't pawn a Disto. Seriously.

My rant? My boyfriend broke up with me when I have no means or place to move out to for the next few months. Because the drove every last real friend I had nearby away.

Me - > Him ->

not all men are like that, don't be a hater

You're right. The good guys are taken or gay.

Or don't want to deal with women who are haters : P

You're right. The good guys are taken or gay.

Some of us aren't taken.
