I got up early today to bring my car back into the car dealer. I didn't think that there was anything wrong with it, even though there was still oil leaking but I wanted to double check. Either way, there was no leak, just some cleanup that they missed when I had the car there last week. So after they cleaned up my car I had 20 minutes to make my train into the city for work. I contemplated just taking a later train and going into work late because it takes me 30 minutes from home to get to the train and the car dealership is a lot farther away. Anyways I MADE the train!!! I knew it was going to be a good day after that or work was finally going to kill me.
I didn't really get a whole lot done at work today because two guys who work with us from Denver were in the office so there was a lot of catching up to do. There is so much to do at work over the next couple of week that I am going to be really busy. I had a nice hot chocolate at work to keep me awake because I was so tired last night. I am going to try to go to bed early tonight so that I am not a zombie at work tomorrow.
So I got a call from my Mom today and she told me that my 21 year old cousin is in jail. I feel bad for this kid because he grew up in a really hard home and his mom (my aunt) died when he was really young. I don't feel bad for him because he doesn't want to stop being a crook. He tells my mom some sob story about only BEING with the two girls who broke in and robbed a van. He didn't actually do or take anything. Well He needs 2000 for bond (10 % of 20000) and his dad wants to let him rot in jail. I guess they allowed him to make a couple phone calls so he called various relatives to see if they would be sympathetic to his cause. My grandmother was going to bail him out but he (my cousin) said that he was going to skip town. My grandmother doesn't realize that if she bails him out then she is liable for him. It is such a screwed up situation. I think the family has decided to leave him in jail for his trial and they are going to ask the judge to go easy on him if he joins the military. He has tried to join once and the Army wouldn't take him because he has 4 felony counts. Blah, it's so messed up.
I think I mentioned in a previous day that I had a fish die recently... I was feeding my last remaining one today and I thought about something really sad that may have given me some insight into fish. I know this may sound dumb but when the poor guy was dying the last fish, who is still alive, sat next to him at the bottom of the tank until he died. It was really sad to watch cause the only surviving fish had to watch all four of his buddies die
I don't think I want any more fish after this because I get too sad whenever any pet dies.
Well I am going to browse the message boards really quick before bed. Nite all!!
