Things that suck...

Wife has strep throat. It now becomes my job to be a human shield for the kids until her antibiotics kick in and render her uncontagious.

I will do this by locking her in a room.

I'm the only one that has been spared ... so far.

i know im in the wrong here, and its a normal and social thing to do, but a pet peave of mine is people asking other people's weekend plans. unless someone routinely does awesome things every weekend, this is just a tedious, and frankly, nosey question to ask.

that is, unless your looking to do something. if your asking just to ask, dont.

imo.

Tree came through the roof tonight during a thunderstorm and missed my son and I by about 5 feet.

The $500 deductible will hurt, but I feel blessed nonetheless.

Mini rapture.

Holy shit. Glad your son is ok.

[Glenn]

Hmm.

I'm glad that you and your son are unharmed.

Sucks about the roof, definitely.

Thanks Mxy.

Some classic moves by the insurance company. Of course they are pleased to confirm that I do indeed have a $500 deductible, which is my right to exercise by filing a claim. BUT I do need to know that by doing so, I'll be forefeiting a $450 annual discount that I've been getting for being claim-free for over 3 years. The loss of that $450 discount for the next 3 years = $1350, essentially making my deductible $1350 for this.


Tried to get 2 estimates today, but couldn't even get a call back on either.

I'm smelling about a $900 hit, and some additional water damage as I wait to get this fixed. FML.
