If you count out average bad things, not things like people dying or getting your house burned down, what is the worst week you can remember having?
Personally I am my winning streak right now. Day 1, a week from now. I get a mail from GOA "Warhammer delayed". Sure it's normal for games to be delayed, I really don't care much about it. Next day, I come home and realise that my weekend will comprise of taking care of a 12 year old fat girl, 14 year old boy and 6 year old girl. They all seem to have a crush on me or some reason, yes the boy too. Normally I would have no problem with this, but these kids are stupid, ugly and insanely annoying, I mean like walking into my room and rearraging my Magic: The Gathering folder and wanting me to teach them how to play and stuff(it took me about a month of playing the game to understand the simple stuff like zones and phases and MANY people playing magic don't know all the rules for those things either and thats just 20% of the game the rest are INSANELY complicated stuff), I don't want to teach them that. Had they been smart kids they probably be fun to play with, but these would probably have a hard time understanding the difference between a land and a spell. Somethings they also liked to do was asking if I wanted to deliver news papers with them and how tall I was(srsly I got the question 20 times, and that's not including the ones from when I hadn't start counting).
So the weekend was horrible.
Then monday! PAYDAY! ing sweet! Now I can buy stuff and eat pizza after school! AWESOME! So I go to the ATM, take out all the money, since I don't like using the card for paying stuff I just take out all my money on day one so I don't spend it all when I am drunk or see a cool thing I just have to buy! So I pre-order the CE for WAR, EB games don't have any beta keys of course, added to the list of sucky things.
So I get on the bus and get home. After I get home I try to find the best place to
to put the receipt for the CE, since I need this for the pre-order I don't want to loose it. I realize that if I put it on the fridge I won't loose it. I mean my dad isn't so stupid to take it off and just throw it away without asking and in my room it WILL get lost.
So I reach for the wallet.
...
Reaching....
Reaching...
????
Where is my wallet? No srsly! Where is the damned thing!?
I look in every single pocket and and realize the wallet is gone, along with the CE receipt, the bus pass, ID, ATM card and my school lunch card. I go "Aha it must have been dropped on the bus!". So the best option right now is simply to run to the bus station and wait for the bus I came with to be on the route back into town. I do this, too bad the bus station is 5 miles away from my home and has stairs and stuff on the way.
So I start running. Now probably comes the best part in the whole post. I see some people running towards me. WITH GUNS IN THEIR HANDS! I live in the area with the least amount of crime in the city so this is quite the rare sight for me. So I think to myself "Guns? Wtf, are the after me? No, are they thinking about doing something with me now when they have spotted me? They might." Now cops show up around the corner with guns drawn. "CRAP! I don't feel like being taken hostage!" I just bolt in the opposite direction and run for like 2 miles before I hear the cops stopping the guys and shooting one. Now I start running back to the bus station. However my perfect plan is foiled when the police thinks I am a hostile person trying to charge them to free the guys. They hold me up at gun point and ask me to lay on the ground. I explain why I am running...they don't really care...
Then they put me in the car with the other guys and I start talking to them like any normal person would...
So I get to the police station and the interrogation starts. 2 hours later after the police starts going "Okey I am pretty sure he had nothing to do with this since the other dudes don't claim to know him and nothing supports him being tied in anyway to this.". Then I leave the place, then I remember than my wallet was lost. I go back and report it, they say a new ID and stuff will cost lots of money(I don't care about converting it into dollars).
So the monday didn't go as planned.
Now I just came home. It's late and the reason is that because I lost my bus pass I had to buy a new one which works in a lot more primitve fashion. So on my way home I realize to my horror that the card and run out of credits sufficient to buy me home. This don't tend to be a problem since paying is pretty much optional, but if they catch you riding the bus you get a fine for a half months pay, so I tend to pay when I should, but they almost never catch you so I go on the bus...and get caught one station away from my stop...
So now I am in dept, don't have any money for the rest of the month and don't have any CE pre-order anymore(this is could probably fix when I get more money). Is this is best week ever or what :D
