GAHHHHHHHHH!!!!
To cap off this shitty day, my watch broke, and I had to buy a new one. I went to Kmart and picked up one of those watches with the metal link wristbands.

While trying and failing miserably to figure out how to adjust the damn thing for my narrow diameter wrist, I lost the fucking pin that holds the foldng clasp together. Now the pin's flown off, I can't find it, and now My brand new fucking watch s now useless!


GAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

2. I don't want a pocket watch.
Without something on my wrist to give me the time, I feel naked and taunted.

Seriously, I do.

4. I'm sorry
Remember K-Mart is one of the signs of the devil. Look at buying over the internet from a reputable firm that sells watches. I think you will be more satisfied.

6. I got it fixed....
I drive to the Evil Empire and had it done for free.

I had to drive with my windows down to keep the inside windows from frosting up. the current ambient temperature is 7 degrees with NW winds 3-5 mph.

I caved in and bought a box of tissues.

I'm just now getting the feeling in my fingers and ears back, and I'm still cold and miserable.

Such is the penance the gods have handed down to me for spending money there.
