All yesterday, I faked that I was in a good mood.
I’m pretty good at it. I have 12 years of retail experience under my belt.
Not everything is going according to plan. We have water and mold in our storage locker. All my books…all my action figures…all my treasures.
Good thing I’m good at faking it.
Other things have not been working out as I envisioned either. But hey, a new Metallica is coming. I guess I can file that with the last two that I can’t remember the songs from!

Savage Ladano! The song sounded like a pale retread of “Hit the Lights” to me. As for your mental state, it seems to me you’re finally ready to get into country music.

They don’t write country songs about water damaged Star Wars figures and mouldy books. I’m on my own here.

Sorry to hear about the storage issues. That sucks. I hope you can salvage some stuff. And big whoop on Metallica’s new album. I like some of their stuff, but I don’t rush out and buy anything for them.

I’m done with new Metallica. If I can’t remember any of the songs from the last two, why should I buy a third? Answer – I should save my money.

Ah shit, sorry to hear this Mike. Hope there isn’t too much damage and you can save your treasures. And sorry to hear you’re not feeling great. I’ve been kinda out the loop of checking up on everyone’s posts and goings-on so hope everything’s ok!

I haven’t gone to inspect my stuff but Jen tells me there was water dripping from the ceiling and mold on the boxes. I’m heartbroken. I can’t bare to look.

Water damage sucks ask Tbone about his basement this past spring. Hopefully its not as bad as you think it is.

I moved everything out of my storage facility and into the house a few years back. I had to make room as the storage place gave me the shits. Some of the books that had dampness I have to Lifeline to sell on their book fairs. A lot of Star Wars books.

Aw Dude I’m sorry to hear about the water damage. No need to fake it, suppressing emotion is less healthy! Was yours the only locker to get the water? Is the building management somehow liable?

Anyway, no, the storage company is not responsible and I have to accept the losses.
