Haunted week...

As my hometown team slowly tries to inch its way to the World Series, it begins to rain.

Will the season end the way it began? or will they disappoint and forever be known as New York's secondary baseball team?

Seeing the way my week has gone, I have to guess that they stand a good shot of losing-- although my luck has turned around a bit...

On Monday, I woke up just before I was supposed to head off to work and I had a fairly crappy day. Lots of last-minute work requests and I just felt really annoyed and unmotivated. Oh, and I was also reminded of a presentation due Thursday that I completely forgot about. =P

As I was heading home, I was getting really tired of waiting in traffic, so I detoured onto bumpy service road in the Bronx...

Little did I know, the bumpy road would put bumps into my car...

And so, I got up at 5AM on Tuesday to get to work early (so that I could finish a bunch of last minute tasks before an 11AM meeting), but my car was wobbley and I couldn't control it!

Turns out, the rear control arm holding my back tires was dented-- so my wheels were outta alignment (thus, the swerving). And of course, it started to rain.

I drop my car off at my mom's friend's garage in Flushing and figure that the repair will be expensive.

I take my mom's car into work at 3PM and stick around until 9PM...

The rest of the week wasn't much better either... =P

I'm thinking that my karmic debt has been paid for this week and Endy Chavez just made an AMAZING play!

Let's go, Mets!!
