Well, I guess you could call that a set of three squared, but that's not important. So, sorry for being gone so long, but school, moving, internet loss, car breaking down, money loss, women problems, and life in general got in the way. That's actually what this post is about. To put things plainly, I have always noticed that my luck is worse than anyone else I know, but I have come to a new realization about the sets of three bad luck rule. I have always heard people say that bad things always come in sets of three, but I noticed that my bad things come in sets of three per category. I have the big things, the medium things, and the small things.

I don't know how many of you know about the big things, but I am sure some of you know about at least one of them. About 2 months ago, I crashed my motorcycle on the interstate and just recently have fully recovered. That's not the worst of it, about a month before that, I got picked up by a tornado. The last thing was this last weekend where I had an ex-girlfriend throw a knife at me. A literal knife. It missed, luckily, but was still scary as shit. Now, about the first two stories, I have had enough time to find humor in them because humor to me heals all wounds and makes it easy to deal with, but the knife one was too recent to laugh about yet. I was being a smart-ass about her using too much make-up because I frequently like to joke around with people that way since they do that with me. Well, she pulled the knife in a throwing gesture, but since she was a good friend of mine and friends don't throw knives at each other, I jokingly said, "go ahead, I'll catch it." Just then, it flew by my face. I know jokes can go too far at times and that's why I don't normally joke too much that way non-stop. I usually give it a break after a short while unless it is back and forth, but that was the first smart-ass thing I had said to her. Now that the big things are out of the way, let's move onto medium things.

I started school about a month ago now, and it has been hectic. I did finally get a new place to live and now don't have to commute daily 50 miles, which is good, but since there are no jobs available, I rely solely on school loans. Normally not a problem because I will pay them back, even if it takes the full 10 years and I am broke all that time, but they decided last minute that I don't need the amount promised, so now I am scraping tooth and nail to have food and other necessities. Also, recently, the girl I am in love with, whom I have been trying (and still am) to get over decided that she wanted to date one last guy before staying with me. Simply put, I have pieced things together about her, and that's not that she doesn't want to be with me, but it is based around what her mental issues are. Her biggest fear in life, over speaking in public and death, is commitment. She knows that's what I want, so she runs when things are going good for us. I am trying to get over her not because I think we're not right for each other, but because I don't want to wait my whole life on her to fiinally get over her fear enough to not keep hurting me by being with other guys. The last thing in the medium category would have to be another friend, who happens to be said-ex-girlfriends best friend, decided to beat me up because she had too much energy. This was about an hour before the knife. I guess the things that bother me about it so much is that for one, I am a pacifist, secondly, even if I wasn't, I would never hit a girl, and thirdly, she hits really really hard. I actually have bruises on my back, stomach, and chest. I almost lost my temper on her, which would have been a really bad thing because I lose all control of myself when that happens, which is the reason I am a pacifist. I could have really hurt her, or others. Well, I just basically slung her around so she couldn't hit me, then I picked her up and set her nicely on the bed telling her she needs to stop now. I would have said that without the physical actions, but she is somewhat child-like in that she has to rebel against direct orders.

Now for the small things. I would just choose some, but there are actually too many to count. I guess things started going this direction about 3 months ago, which means they should almost be done by now. Sorry for the lack of order and long rant here, but I needed to get it out. I have been having a shitty 3 months and I really need a vacation. Let's just say that if every time something bad happened to me, I got a penny, I would have enough to buy every country in the world. I will say, though, that I am fairly optimistic most of the time and now that today didn't have a bunch of terrible things laid out for me, I am thinking the constant bad things are possibly at an end for another few months. Anyway, I would love to hear what everyone else has to say on this, either opinion on my post or personal stories.
