Default And so my saga of bad luck continues....

Yesterday was my bosses going away party. Her and her husband drink A LOT of wine so we wanted to get her a bottle of nice wine. I found a wine store and got directions to it. I left work and after riding for a little bit I realized I forgot the directions! I had thought I could remember, well I didn't I spent 45minutes driving around on some of the most horrible roads (huge bumps in the road every 3 feet) and one way streets everywhere all in a location I'm not too familiar with. I made three stops to check my phone and see if I could find their website on the internet and every time I couldn't remember the name of the store. Well like I said after the 45+ minutes of riding I finally found the place and I was pissed off as ever!!!!!! I don't remember the last time I was so angry and frustrated I was just dripping in sweat I was so mad. The wine store was on a hill with a F-ed up road. The road was uphill and the parking spot I spotted was to my left on a one way street and to park the bike was going to be angled down hill and leaning towards my left side, it was a messed up spot. After pulling into the spot and shutting the bike off I thought it would be best to leave the bike in gear because it was a pretty steep slope the bike was on. After swearing a few more times trying to get the stupid thing into gear I get off and guess what Mike forgets to do? PUT THE GOSH DARN KICKSTAND DOWN! I knew the bike would be leaning a lot so I had the wheel turned to the right and it just kept leaning more and more and more and more until the mother F-er was falling ontop of me! I tried to catch it but I was just so tired and pissed off and had just filled it up with 4gallons of gas making it even more heavy. I let it down pretty lightly onto the concrete while bystanders driving and walking watched. I let out the absolute loudest "SON OF A MOTHER F-ING B**** C*** SUCKING F-ING PIECE OF DOG S*** F-ER I'LL F-ING KILL YOU YOU PIECE OF S*** B**** A** MOTORCYCLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I was so angry and frustrated I swear I was almost in tears. I grabbed the handlebars and with all my strength picked the bike up and having to rotate it maybe 120degrees just to get it standing straight because of the way the F-ed up road was I almost threw it over to the opposite side and dropped it again! I walked into the wine store up to the counter and my hands were shaking and I just said "I don't give a S*** give me a F-ing bottle of red wine caberet for between $60-$80" The guy looked at me and said "Man, are you alright?" I wanted to punch him in the face. All I said was "I don't know anything about wine, nor do I care, I'm having one of the worst afternoons of my life so please just go grab me a d***ed bottle of wine I don't really care what it is."

Then I left and was still so furious I got lost again. I was in Wauwatosa and I couldn't for the life of me think of where Burleigh road was. Normally I know exactally where it is but I was just so upset I could not think straight. Has that ever happened to anyone where you're just so mad you can't think of things that you KNOW? It really sucked because I left work at 5:15 and got to the party at 7:45 which started at 5:45 and I had hoped to be there by 6 at the absolute latest. =( What is going on with my life lately? Everything is screwed up!!! =(

Here are pics of the damages, after going home and sleeping it off later on after the going away party. I guess it really isn't all that bad but what makes me the most upset was I take really good care of the stupid thing. Careful not to drop it, do good maintenance on it, I just don't wash it a lot because I ride in the rain quite a bit. /sigh

Damn man, sorry to hear bout that. Things like that are why I don't wanna pretty up my bikes. The better it looks, the more careful you need to be. Looks like they can be sanded down and spot painted if you can get matching paint. Best of luck
