So last year, I was studying in Oxford and was planning on going back to a hotel at which I had previously stayed on a Thursday night, because I didn't have any classes on Friday. The morning before I was going to leave, all those 7/7 bombings hit, one of which was right near my hotel. I missed it by a matter of hours.
A few weeks ago, there was a huge fire in my apartment complex that killed a person and damaged or destroyed 36 apartments... one building over from me.
The worst bombing in London since World War II, and I was a few hours away from it. The first fire my apartment complex has had in 30 years and I was one building away from it.
At first I thought I had a guardian angel, and then I wondered if I was some sort of weird catalyst for this shit. But then I realized that I'm not not important. So, what I've settled on is that I have a guardian angel and a demon who's trying to kill me. The demon keeps sending all this shit at me, and my angel doesn't prevent it from happening, but it does remove me one step away from it all. That's perfectly plausible, right?

I read your comment and the wording sounded great; I thought about just popping my head into her room for a minute and repeating part of that phrase to her, "drunkenness is not a blank check to do anything you want, stupid or otherwise..next time I'm calling the front desk and getting police up here.." but then figured maybe she remembered and perhaps some part of her felt bad and learned a moral lesson. Though..probably not, eh? She is pretty dumb, from what I hear through the walls..
I SO should try to remember the picture of the moose to post next time. Not of his winky, though. Just the branch in his antlers.
thanks again!
