It just occurred to me
that today is Friday the 13th! Luckily I'm not a
superstitious fellow, not really, but coming across small revelations
that today is a day when people should take care due to its
superstitious influence over our reality. I had only one goal today
that was to deposit the check I got from the Utah Developmental
Disabilities Council (U D D C) for the use of my image in their
generation of publicity documents and resources.
Dear reader you will
remember that one of the reasons I went to book club yesterday was to
get my check. Ricky, the office manager, said that she would haven't
been would give it to me at bookclub. I had to sign a release of
course and she handed me a sealed envelope which look like a card
which I assume would be a thank you card. I was late getting to
bookclub by a few minutes so rather than open the card then I just
stuffed it into my man bag with the thought of going to my credit
union today and make the deposit. I really was going to put $20 into
savings and $20 into checking and then keep $10 in cash to get
through the weekend. (last couple months I spent way too much money
on debt medical, clothing dental etc. I just feel a little anxious
right now so rather than generating cash and spend it I was going to
be thrifty and save).
I don't know
where my afternoon went the afternoon just kind of evaporated. I was
supposed to hang around the apartment for the manager and maintenance
guy who is supposed to be the head honcho on my rehabilitation my
unit. I kind of forgot that they were coming round and for some
reason late in the afternoon as I was istening to my radio show
Marketplace I realized that I
did not have to wait for the end of the show I can actually listen to
my radio show all waiting for the bus. I threw a jacket on my
shoulders and took off the day was colder than anticipated but I was
comfortable. My credit union is not relatively easy to get to. The
simplest route is going south to about 6800 S. getting off the bus
and crossing Redwood Road which is dicey at best. Today was just cold
enough and I was feeling at risk of mouth but I decided I would take
the bus all the way to the South Jordan train station where the bus
turns into the returning route the 217 inbound. This would allow me
to stay on the bus and then disembark the bus right in front of my
credit union. I had about a seven minute wait before we headed back
north and I decided to open my card and have my check ready. To my
shock when I opened the card it was full cash! I did not need to be
there I could've been home. With a chuckle I shared this information
with the bus driver don't think he fully appreciated the humor. I had
them drop me off at this Mexican joint not far from the graveyard
where I got a fine Friday night dinner with my acting money…
