Bad Evening, Good morning

So yesterday I felt really super sleepy and my foot hurt and then i had to hoof it around town to my appointment and I always feel a little more "raw" after seeing my therapist and things are on my mind, and then I accidentally took the bus the wrong way and it took forever to catch one going the other way and then I had to walk home from Bart on my owie foot and once I get a half a block from home BOOM CRASH SCREACH - a car hits a minivan RIGHT in front of me. and it was a really good crash, and then they just took off. I got three of the licence plate digits and started calling 9-1-1. A few people around and in houses came out an crowded around, two young girls came out of the van screaming obscenities in ebonics and I was just really shook up. Seeing Richard, our enxt door neoighbor (friendly older man) was somewhat comforting, but by the time i got home and saw wes i just started to cry. I was starving, i hadnt eaten in 8 or so hours, i had a headache, i was ired, my feet hurt, etc, etc, etc. wes was in a good mood too and i spoiled it. I wish he had picked me up at bart, i HATE asking. we finally ate and i finally started to feel better. we had a good talk and i got some greatly needed rest.

This morning i had to get up earlier, shower, and drive to my dentist appt in the city. despite the major traffic and me being late to my appointment, the dentist was fun. i knwo im crazy, right? well my dentist is super chatty and friendly. we talked about his daughter and my job and he was so excited about the academy. he even pulled up a couple websites and showed me between scraping and polishing. He also had a new digital x-ray machine. i only got one third the radiation and the photos were instant. it was cool. No cavaties! I also got a new toothbrush, its a nice one!

Next I got to work and noticed that the parking lot closest to work had lowered their prices, so i tried them (only one dollar mroe than my usual place, and a block closer). I asked the guy if he knew of a car wash i can go to after work adn he said he would wash it inside and out- detailed for $20! not bad!

So far i am pleased with today and hope my huney is having a good day too.

Now I decided to give you a little photo glimpse into why I love Oakland: ENJOY!
