As promised, I figured I'd delve into the crappiness of my life recently. I'm no Debbie Downer, so we'll do a positive-negative-positive sandwich; like they teach me to do when coaching children. Positives: I love my job (which puts me in less than 1% of the employed population), I love my friends, and I love to run, which by default, pumps my brain full of endorphins, hence making me/my attitude much more resilient when faced with fuckmylife scenarios.
So I was robbed. Yeah. Leaving the gym, took my wallet and ipod.
Now, you would have thought this happened in Philly, but no no, this was in good 'ol Wilmington. To remedy my situation I had to spend the past day or so 1) wasting 2 hours of my life at the dmv to get another license (thus making it possible for me to drive to work and/or consume alcohol), 2) canceling all credit cards and re-issuing new ones....again, no fun to be on the phone for 4 hours accomplishing this, 3) getting on a first-name basis with the people at my wachovia branch because my only way to get dinero at this point is to cash checks to myself....awesome. I can't imagine what life was like before debit/credit cards.
My roommate and I also (in the past week) have realized that our lease is a month longer than expected. We hate our landlord and apartment. No a/c, no dishwasher, no laundry, no bathroom fan/ventilation (i.e. mold growing everywhere no matter how much we clean!!!), and no parking. The roof leaks and the plumbing clogs. The roommate is moving down the beach in 2 weeks...I'm stuck til August....gew.
Wilmington, Delaware is a cool place. No really. Doesn't this look like fun? This is one of the better bars. The name? Scratch Magoos. It just spells class.
Picturesque Brandywine River park. This is where I lay out to tan. I just have to check for crack needles beforehand. You would never guess its right next to section 8 housing.
Another hopping place. Rooney's; the local watering hole. Kareoke Idol baby...and the best dance floor in town......
My Bestie's place. There's actually nothing bad I can say about it other than I'm jealous.
ManCandy's place. Nicer than it appears. The 2nd floor is/are apartments, 1st floor is/are shitty retail stores clearly bombing in this economy, a Subway, and Happy Harrys (drugstore/social hub).
Ciao Pizza (actually delicious pizza) awkwardly/cheesily shaped like a pizza slice....
I want to get out of Delaware!!!! I need a new place, a new man, and happy hour to be here now!
