I am suffering from a series of bad luck.
As we all know, bad luck comes in 3’s, and so I am somewhat worried about what the third thing will be.
Yesterday, I locked my keys in the trunk of my car. I called a
locksmith, but he never showed up. At least, not while I was
there. Some 3 and a half hours later he left a voicemail at my
phone, and had arrived at my car, but, no one was there. hmmm..
imagine that. people don’t wait outside by their cars for 3 and
half hours. Anyway, that was resolved today when I recieved a
copy of the key that my mom overnighted to me.
As for #2, I woke up this morning and remembered that I hadn’t watched
the newest episode of Lost yet. So, I pulled out my powerbook and
started watching it. The quality of this ep really sucked… the
video kept cutting out and it was choppy in parts…. but that’s not
the bad luck part, that’s just me complaining. My roommate
started talking to me, and I turned my head. Shortly thereafter,
I felt a jerk on my headphones as my powerbook fell to the floor from
my relatively high bed. I did not immediately notice anything
wrong, but when I got to the cafe I noticed the case is bent up by the
cd drive. It is not presently known whether or not the drive is
still operational. (I am afraid that it will let a cd in, but not
let a cd out.)
On the up side, it should be covered by the Applecare Protection
Plan…. so I will be getting something with that $350. On
the downside, I will be without my powerbook for a few days… starting
probably on like… tuesday.
Here’s hoping 3 doesn’t suck too bad….
Oh man. I was without my laptop for a week while my brother’s friend took it apart and reformatted it, and I thought I was dying.
Maybe you won’t have bad luck for your third thing… maybe it will be “Third time’s the charm,” and you will uh… win the Powerball and get asked out by Natalie Portman. As the old McDonald’s jingle goes: “Hey, it could happen!”
aww, you poor kid. I hope that ‘applecare'(hehe) plan does cover it…and IF there is a third bad thing, it looks like it should happen tomorrow…sooo here’s a tip for avoiding bad luck: beware of cheese.
Do you HAVE a living will?
