actuary

Boys and girls, today's word of the day is Actuary. They are people who, basically, decide how risky you are to insure, and if you have to pay dingleberries or the kahoonas for your insurance policy.

I bring this up because I went out on a date with an actuary once. She was a petite little character who was preppy and mischievous. I was a nervous wreck driving a car with an out of state license. The location was the Lion King musical in San Francisco. It was great. The performance, not the date.

The performance was pretty much on the spot. Simba danced and played. Timone and Pummba did their little trickseys thing. The evil uncle tried to steal the throne. Simba grows up and reclaims it. I loved it.

As we walked back to the parking lot where my car was, I found a huge gaping hole with glass shards where my driver window was. Great!

What could I do? I drove her home. We sat in the car in front of her house, a cold breeze blowing through my shattered window. I looked at her and she said, "I'm sorry about your window". I replied, "I am sorry it happened". She got out of the car and said, "Keep in touch". I replied, "I will".

I never called. I didn't know what to say.

So whoever broke into my car, you ruined my date. Asshole.
