Awful piece of shit West Eugene run

July 17, 2009 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: mid-90s, hot as fuck

Comments:
Ran at noon with Jeff, commiserating about my GD car. After an easy 4 with him, I ran to Oregon Credit Union, cashed an ADVANCE on my GD paycheck, then dragged ass -- through shitty traffic, all concrete, and 90+ temps -- to NW Eugene to pick-up my car at some shitty fuckin' gravel lot where my car was being held at ransom.

Once I got there I found this unmarked fenced-in area with an open gate. Some high school kid was sitting by a wrecker at the end of this long, gravel, shitpile -- with the Celica right near by. He extorted me for $250. Among the charges: "$30 after-hours gate fee". I asked him about this: How is there a GATE FEE if I didn't GO through the fucking gate after hours? It not my fucking problem you have to OPEN YOUR OWN GD GATE to put my car in that you dragged away.

That conversation went nowhere, so I went after my car. Key in the ignition: nothing. Won't turn. AGAIN. It took ten minutes to get the MFer to turn. GRRR.

Beer will be consumed tonight, that's for damn sure. Even if I'm down $250...
