Things to be thankful for...

Can I borrow your car????

I was expecting this question since I started planning this trip.
Why?
Because I'm NOT gonna be in NY for a week and my car wont be used for a week... so if I'm not gonna be here i can lend the car to whoever i want, right?

So last night one of my friends came to pick up the car coz her mom was coming. She knows I'm leaving tomorrow and so far she hadn't asked whether she could have the car for the week I'm not here.
However, this morning she asked me:

Her: Are you leaving your car at G's house?
Me: No. he's taking me to JFK on his dad's truck.
Her: do you think I could borrow your car?
Me: I can't do that. I'm sorry.
Her: Why?
Me: (no answer)
Her: that's ok. No problem.
(15 minutes later)
Her: At least could I use it just for tomorrow?
Me: no.


We're talking about the girl who scratched my car and didnt tell me IMMEDIATELY about it. The same girl who didnt offer to fix the door (it still has a huge dent!), who didn't pay for my brakes, who doesnt pay insurance on the car, who doesnt have a DL, who won't pay for the alingment and the oil change.

I'm a VERY nice person. I help you out with many things. I can lend you $, my car, my clothes, my phone, whatever. But I'm not lending my car for a week anymore.
I want to go on vacation knowing my car is parked outside my house. Noone is using it. Noone is calling me to ask me whether they can use my car. I'm even gonna put a lock on the steering wheel (as this girl has the car key, but not the key for that thing). I just dont want to deal with NY stuff when I'm away. I want to ENJOY my vacations. I want to ENJOY my brother coz he's gonna be here for 10 days, not a month.

Taking the advice from MANY people, and feeling terribly bad, I said NO today.
It doesnt make me less of a friend/person.
I'm tired of people taking advantage of me... so today I said NO. I hope to keep saying more NOs.

It's been 7 years, 10 months and 3 days...

...since the last time I saw my brother.
and I'm gonna see him again tomorrow.

There's lot of mixed feelings.
I've worked SO HARD for this that I can't believe tomorrow is the day.
I just wanna hug him and meet my niece and nephew.
Right now, all I want, is to be able to hug him.
I really need that right now.

Allen told me over the phone 'I miss you'.
He's acting VERY weird. He says I'll call you back and he actually calls me back.
(not like me Di... I know).

Di:
I got the songs Shakira wrote for the movie. I give them to you when I see you in FL.
I'm gonna see you on Friday! Yupee!!! I missed you a lot today.
Hope everything is ok with you.
I love ya!

'Protection'

I pay for a protection on my ATM card.
I didnt have $ in my account but the ATM was working.

I get my phone bill on my email and the phone bill is $168 (2 times more than what I usually pay!!!!) and I decide to pay half now and half later.

I check my bank account to see if I could pay at least $50.

My checking account is -$160 and I made 6 transactions (most of them are about $5, $1.03) and now I'm gonna have to pay $35 for each transaction made with no $ in my account.

Question:
WHY THE FUCK AM I PAYING FOR PROTECTION IF THE FUCKING BANK WONT CALL ME TO LET ME KNOW I'M NEGATIVE????

So now, instead of depositing $160, I have to deposit $370 to cover for those 6 transactions....

Eating last night at Burger King cost me $41... and a song on iTunes $36.
Nice.

FUCK!
