A really rough morning for The Horse

There's no other way to put it: This has been a Really Bad Morning.
The heater guys were supposed to come tomorrow, but came by unannounced at 8 AM this morning, messing up my routine and turning my electricity off and on several times.
When they left, my Microsoft Word was down, meaning I can't access my own documents.
Then my truck wouldn't start, meaning I had to cancel my first guitar lesson of the afternoon.
It's raining out, but by God I'm going to cycle in to Guitar Center if I have to.
We're trying to charge my truck battery right now. We'll see what happens.

You know what they say, when it rains it pours. No, did not make you smile. Good thing can go to Guitar Canter and smash some guitars. That always makes people smile. I tried to change your luck buddy.

@TheHorse These times dangerous, have to back up your back ups. World is screwed if technology ever goes out, but we can still smash some guitars when that happens and it will. People are fragile, technology is even more fragile and very expensive.

I hope it works. I may have hit the bottom The truck is running (no, I won't turn it off) and I'm going to miss only one lesson. Hopefully I have not lost the book I've been working on for three years. Nor my ability to smile when I hear the word "Monopoly." It's great as a game. But a pain when it means you cannot contact Facebook, Microsoft, and other entities that have a lot of control over your life.

I see you got your truck running and I hope you'll be able to access everything on your computer when you get home from Guitar World. Good luck, pony.
