That's right everyone, at this very moment my opinion of the human species isn't a very pleasent one. I always knew there was a reason I liked dogs and other animals better then a lot of humans.
Yesterday there was a blizzard in the city, yes I said blizzard...it is Calgary after all, we've even had snow in August so a blizzard in April is nothing. Anyway me being the irrational person that I can be at times decided that even though the roads were crap, visibility sucked and well that it was snowing, I decided to take Smudge and Winter to a trial that I had entered them in.
I was fine going out there, had no problems. On the way back though is when things started to go to that warm place in a handbasket. First I had to get a push out of the barns parking lot..snow on top of mud is not the easiest stuff to get out of... then I got stuck in a ditch, and I mean stuck. Luckily I had my cell phone with me and my oldest sister came and got me.
That's where my current hate of the human species began, I was waiting for at least half an hour and in that span at least 50 cars or so passed me. Only four stopped to see if I was okay.
Anyway this afternoon my sister and my other sisters boyfriend drove out in his truck to get the car out of the ditch...one slight problem..some drunken idiots decided over the course of the night that it would be fun to break every single window in my car. We think they were trying to steal it, which makes no sense what so ever because the drivers side was in 3 feet deep snow. We know at least that they started the car however because a guy on a snow mobile turned it off for us...I sort of forgot to take my keys out. I was more worried about myself and the dogs at the time...the doors were locked though, so we thought it would have been fine.
Anyway called the cops some help they were said there was nothing they can do about it, now we just have to get it towed which is what we are going to do now.
Last night however the police impressed me, because they phoned my house when they found the car to make sure that I was okay and that I knew that the car was there.
Anyway thanks for listening to my semi rant.
Oh forgot to say that while we were waiting for the police this afternoon over a hundred cars passed and once again only four stopped to make sure things were alright, the rest just gawked....:mad:
