definition
living beyond yourself (gerund phrase): 1. not smiting flaky people who tell you on the very day they were supposed to be paying you first/last/deposit and moving into the apartment you sub-let that they won't be taking it after all. 2. smiling when you run out of gas 3. not knocking a doctor over the head even when s/he tells you the direct opposite of what the doctor who referred you to her told you about your condition. 4. not blowing up Costco with homemade incendiaries.
I think that about covers my weekend so far.
Comments
The not smiting, not knocking over the head, and not blowing up with homemade incendiaries I can understand, because, well, those things just "aren't done", no matter how infuriating it sounds like those circumstances were.
But the smiling at the empty gas tank... I hope your weekend will improve dramatically, because if you managed to do that, you certainly *deserve* a break! ;o)
Seriously, sounds like one frustration after another. Surely the rest of the weekend can't be any *worse* (I hope).

The rest I understand, but what did Costco do?? I'd come live in your apartment if it weren't, you know, across the company from my jobs and school...

AW! (((HUGS))) I wish my long distance worked, I'd call you and tell you how much I love you. I hope you feel more like yourself soon. I'll say a little prayer for you. That is sucktastic about the apartment. I know how important that was for you. I'm so sorry.
