Remember those times?

October 25, 2006 – 7:12 pm

yeah… so remember that time when I bought a car, and then the transmission dropped, so I took it in to get it fixed and drove a the worst piece of crap loaner ever, and then I got my car back but it wasn’t fixed, so I was back to driving the loaner again, and it started smoking profusely every time you drove more than 100 yards, and then I ended up without my own car for over a month, and when they finally called to say my car was fixed (again), the loaner car dies one minute away from my work, so I have to get it towed and get ANOTHER loaner car to go pick up my real car and take the loaners back, all while dealing with some phantom bug problems in my new apartment which was causing all my clothes to be in garbage bags strewn about the apartment so I can’t actually move around the already tiny space to make dinner or to find a blazer in the morning before I went to work? Yeah… I remember those times. Like they were today.
Oh. They are. I almost forgot, I was too busy waiting for the tow truck to arrive.

To Whom It May Concern:
I just opened up my bag of Starburst, and to my dismay, I only found four pink ones! This was, of course, very sad, since pink ones are my favorite. There were a total of 92 starburst in the bag, making a paltry 4.3% of the bag pink! Broken down further, 14.1% were yellow, 29.3% were red, and a whopping 52.2% were orange! Sad, indeed. What could possibly account for this disproportionate bag of starburst, I wonder? Oh well, I still like the red ones. :-)

I’ll post their response, assuming it’s worth posting, as soon as I hear back from them.
