Returned home at 2:00am, totally depleted of energy, hail stones pelting down from the heavens and no parking spot in sight. As an atheist, can I look at the heavens and say “Give me a sign!” If I did, it would make me a hypocrite. So I looked at my Siri-less phone forlornly and lo and behold a parking spot appeared before my very eyes. I grabbed it. OK, now I have to decide, to get a taxi to my apartment or to make the twenty minute walk, while hail pelts down on me.
I decided to take the long journey home. Who knows my luck may change on my way. But then again, had I ordered a taxi, maybe the love of my life would be the driver? Decisions in life can have adverse effects. We have to make the most of what we have.
Woke up this morning, a smile on my face. “Yippee” WTF? Long night, not enough sleep, drenched, long walk and yippee?
Had a hot shower, dressed and took my bag of vegetables to eat during the day and the garbage bag and went downstairs to start the voyage back to the car. I threw out the garbage.
With the rain pouring on me, I once again thought, taxi or a walk? I decided to walk. Every journey begins with a step. Along the way, I saw the umbrellas of those weary souls brave enough to have made the journey before me only to have lost their umbrellas to the gusts of wind.
Have I switched off my boiler? No! Do I return home to switch it off? YES. So I returned home and start out again on my long, lonely voyage to my car.
I get to my car and realize, I was carrying the garbage! I had thrown away my vegetables! Oh Crap, I’m screwed as Katy Perry sings.
“Yippee,” I yell again. Why so happy? Because people it is the end of the week. Enjoy your weekend everyone.
