Sitting here watching Die Hard, int he background, and there has been a lot of death lately. I hate even writing that because it sounded lame even when I wrote it. Anyways, rain, Cavs, birds, hope in many ways. Still there is the occasional glimmer of redemption. After leaving Luke's both because I wanted to get away from the mess and get to the Tuesday movie I found aforementioned movie SOLD OUT. In a cloud of "well of course it is" I began to walk 6th street like a common street rat. Found a bar playing the game and watched from outside. Punched a wall. Walked back to the Ritz and made SURE they were sold out. I mean come on I am at EVERY tuesday movie. They were. I walked out. As I approached my bike so did some annonymous do gooder. He was supposed to meet a friend, no dice, so he sold me his ticket. rejoice. It was a pretty good movie and just what I needed.
ALL of this began a week ago when I found my car tire flat flat flat. I pumped it up and it is still holding air. DAMN kids. Then on the way to work I hit a bird. I hope it is ok. Or it was quick. I was also supposed to have a guest this weekend. But fate thought differently. That probably worked out for the best though. I've been working too much. I need a vacation from this vacation.
