Oh the irony of it all

This spring when the quartet formed, I decided way ahead of time, that if the quartet would qualify for the District contest, the chorus would have to find someone else to haul the riser trailer to Charleston.

I started laying the groundwork for this early. I really did not want to leave them hanging, but like my recent posts said, I am really hard nosed and focussed when it comes to quartet, and I did not want to be disturbed to move the trailer, or go look for something or whatever when I was supposed to be rehearsing.


Yesterday and today the chorus did two benefit concerts. I found out yesterday that one of the geniuses that tried to help out in Charleston ran over a curb or something and destroyed one of the trailer wheels. He not only ruined the tire, he bent the rim all to shit.

When I got a good look at the back of the van, someone probably genius, had jackknifed the trailer, and creased the rear bumper.

When he changed the tire on the trailer, he left the jack and all the accessories roll around in the back of the van. They are still there, probably getting grease all over everything.

When I got a good look at the trailer in the daylight today, it looks like genius also bent the axle.

I can't win.

I will have to take the trailer to the trailer company to have this all fixed.

I think someone in the chorus might have paid him to do all of this so I will think twice the next time before I opt out of driving the trailer. Its just not worth the hassle
