How my day went from bad to absolute sh!t in about 45 minutes.
The day started like any other sunday. Got up around 6am with my son, fed him his bottle and then took a ride in my wife’s truck for fresh bagels. (it has the baby seat in it)
Later in the morning, my wife gets the brainstorm of wanting the kitchen re-painted BEFORE the new baby comes. So being the good husband I said okay and started to prep the kitchen until I noticed all my brushes were missing. After hunting for them for 20 minutes I remember lending them to my sister. So I get in MY car (leaving my wife’s car in the street) and make the 15-minute ride to their house. When I get there, I find all 4 of my purdy brushes completely ruined. She never really cleaned them and they dried with paint in them. Needless to say, I’m pissed since that’s about 60 bucks pissed away. Now on the way home I stop at the home depot, pick out 4 new brushes, make my way to the check out counter only to realize, my wallet is in my WIFE’s truck. Now I’m really pissed. Not only do I need to spend 60 bucks on new brushes, but I also need to make the trip twice since I had no money on me. Here is where my day turned to poop.
As I’m driving into my development a town cop decides to “spot check” me and pulls me over. Well, being a foul mood, and knowing I wasn’t speeding I ask him what I did all snotty. All he says is “license, insurance and registration.” Right there I knew I was screwed. I tell him I left my wallet in the other car but live just around the block. So he takes down some information and heads to his car. 10 minutes later and comes back with 3 tickets. First one is for no seatbelt, and the others were for no user documentation (license and Registration) Well now I’m really pissed since I literally live maybe 250 yards away. So I tell him he’s a prick and drive off. As I’m pulling onto my street I see yet another town cop parked in front of my house. He’s handing my wife (who is 9 months pregnant) a parking ticket since I left the car in the Cul-de-Sac.
So to sum it all up:
$60.00 bucks for new brushes
$45.00 bucks for the seat belt ticket
$130.00 for the no license ticket
$130.00 for the no registration ticket and last but not least
$28.00 bucks for the parking ticket.
Grand tot:
$393.00 in tickets.
And to boot, I still need to paint the damn kitchen
