Murphy is laughing his ass off right now
I went to take my walk this afternoon. As I had to bring my form by parking services to get my new parking pass, I took that with me and stopped by parking service first. As I left, I placed my pass in my pocket and proceeded to walk down DOG street to the Capital and back to my office. I went to get my sticker out of my pocket and it wasn’t there. I looked in my car and around my office; no sticker. Shit.
So I went back out, retraced my entire walk (that would be 3 miles or so). No sticker. So I slunk back to the parking services office to grovel and pay the "idiot who looses his sticker within an hour of getting it" fee. As I am talking to the lady in parking service, her phone rings.
Some tourist found my sticker and walked it into an office on campus.
I can hear the laughter all the way over here.
August is a good month. Today began the run up to Jeremy Birthday 2004 (which will be immediately be followed by Elizabeth Birthday 2004). Thanks Sweety! I received my first present today; a copy of the 3rd volume of the Harper’s Index Book. Harper’s Index was always my favorite part of Harper’s Magazine; lots of fun facts. (And to be honest, the only part I ever read of my dad’s subscription.)
And a sad fact from my new book relating to elections:
Chances that an American is willing to vote for a Mormon for President: 4 in 5
Chances that an American is willing to vote for an atheist: 1 in 2
On another topic, I got half the lawn mowed before it started raining again. At the rate we are going, it will probably be another few weeks before there is a breach in the rain so I can mow again. ::sigh::
