Ok. Anyone who wants to can roll on the floor laughing their guts out (and possibly breaking a couple of ribs in the process). And the reason for this is as follows: I have once again been confronted with a rather anoying problem with my piece of shit car. Take that brocoli out of your ears so I can entertain you once again with one of my not-so-serious-yet-still-quite-true stories.
Mid-week. Early morning. Darkness all around me. Sexy iguanas having sex as would a couple of rabbits on viagra. Then that damnable alarm clock's ridiculously loud noise pulls me out of my wonderful dream, like every morning of the week. I've been doing this for a long time now, and still I can't adjust. How is it that the body can't get used to waking up early? Anyway back to the story...
After struggling with my slippers, fumbling with my bathrobe, and in a very zombie-like manner walked to the kitchen, I managed to fix myself some breakfast, get dressed and ready for work without any serious injury (which is a miracle considering that I do all this with my eyes closed and still half -asleep...). Then the not-so-funny part. I walk up to the so called "car" in the driveway, open a door, put my gear in, sit down, and shut the door. Or not. With a weird "thump" the door bounces back out. "Hum.... Ok, let's try that again." And the same thing occurs, even after checking for obstructions... So I figured that the locking mechanism was frozen.
Let's review the situation: I'm in my driveway in a busted-ass vehicule which door won't shut properly, it's 06:35 and I start work at 07:00... and it normally takes me about 30 minutes to get to work because of the traffic.
Don't panic, I was trained to handle much worse situations.
...
...
Ok so I kicked the door a couple of times while shouting quite rude words... Everybody looses patience in certain situations... I guess...
Anyway all this to tell you that if you want to have a good time, try wrapping yourself in foil and lying in the sun for a couple of hours... Oh no wait, that's not related to my story, is it?
Ok so here it is: I got to work just barely in time by some weird miracle, holding the door with my left hand all the way to the base... Not a particularly safe way to travel, I agree.
So next time you eat some chocolate, be sure to wash your hands before.
Think about it.
