Iceman

This past week I enjoyed a marvelous vaycay (stories to come later). I also took a chance on something and started standing up for myself for the first time in my life. I am on a take-no-crap-from-anybody kick. All my life I have let people control me and beat me down, but not anymore!!! I have risen above and taken control of my life. Who knew I would enjoy my crazy wonderful life even more now that I'm in control? As Charlie Sheen would say "WINNING!!!"

Now everything comes with a price. I started saying "no" and now the universe has given me a really bad week riddled with the oddest bad luck streak I've ever had. First, on my way home from vaycay, my car was killed by a rock. Second, the day after I get home I hear my dear Aunt Pat, who is suffering from cancer, took a major turn for the worse. Now, today, my rental car decided to stop at the gas station and play games. For some reason it would not drive. I would shift gears and drive in reverse, but damn it, it would not drive forward. I reversed all the way into a parking spot got out to look under the hood. I ended up burning the crap out of my hands because something startled me. Just as I was about to give up, I looked up to the sky and asked "Why isn't it raining?" and God thought that question was so funny He let it pour. FML!

After help arrived I learned that the car wouldn't drive because I still had the damn emergency break on. My brain has been so frazzled this week dealing with family/friend issues, catching up on work, dealing with AAA, and trying to find a new car  I feel as though I may go crazy. Just as I think I cannot take anymore, Hell throws me another fireball and just like Iceman in X-Men, I freeze them suckers and bat them out of the park. Bring it! I can take anything, and still do it with a smile on my face!!!

"Ain't nothing gonna break my stride, ain't no one gonna slow me down. OH NO!!! I got to keep on moving."
