When it rains, it pours....literally.

Well, I've had quite the crappy afternoon. I get a call from the lawyers office saying that my final divorce papers are ready to be picked up. Keep in mind this is a divorce I didn't want, so wasn't feeling real happy to begin with. I go in and pick up my papers in the pouring rain and come back out, and hear a hissing sound. I look, and my left front tire is almost all the way flat, and a nice big shiny silver screw in my tire is looking back at me. This is one time I wish I still had runflats on the car. So not only did I get to pick up divorce papers, but I got to repair a flat tire in the pouring rain in the parking lot of the lawyers office too. Awesome day! Oh well, worse things could have happened. At least I didn't have a wreck or something. Hopefully tomorrow will be better than today!

Life equals pain, what else can I say? Just got to be a good person, and let the chips fall where they may.

Hang in there. Things definitely get better.

I got a divorce last year and got myself my 335i as a gift to myself. It was one of the best days of my life.

The problems and joys of life ebb and flow. Attachment to either breeds suffering.

I didn't want the divorce I went through either ........... in the end it turned out to be for the best though. Being single isn't so bad!

As long as you get to keep the 335i after the divorce, then that's one positive.

Thanks everyone. Yeah, I bought the 335i on Christmas Eve, two days after we signed for the divorce. It definitely made me feel better!

That sucks man. I have had days like that, I feel your pain. The best thing to do is get in your car, go pick up some girls and have a good time. It will make you feel better, if only for a little bit.
