Ok so last year there was the summer experience of my sarong falling off while I was in the driveway on the 4th of July while all my neighbors are BBQ'n. OK today was worse...
So yesterday I had a shitty day. Today goes better or
up to an hour ago....
So. I find myself at home alone after a moderate day at work and pleasant conversations with friends. I realize that I'm hungry. So as I ponder my dinner as my kids anxiously await my every mood cause their bored. I think, Ah I will take the kids for a drive and get some food. What a fantastic idea!!
I go outside to change the car configuration to allow space for them and I remember. DAMN it's hot!! But I run the AC for a bit, suit up the kids and were out.
* Let me preface this with the fact that I spent last weekend detailing my car*** But I still think it's a good idea. What's a little doghair RIGHT.
Well, I didn't think of the drool factor and as I am driving the kids are drooling so much that dog drool is flinging EVERYWHERE.
(I swear I am not exaggerating)Windshield and even my foot, but the kids are having a good time anyways so I laugh it off. However, I decide to cut the trip early and take a quick local drivethru instead.
SO far so good. Get the kids home and the car is covered in drool and doghair. O well so much for the nice clean car.
Then (while re-adjusting the car configuration) I notice yellow liquid on the backseat floor mats. OK Now I'm pissed. It's 100 degrees and my dog has urinated in the car. That bastard!
I pull the mats out of the car and don't notice a bad odor, it's actually slightly sweet. HUH...
I go to move the front seat back and there's my 12 pack of Jazz Carmel Diet Soda sitting on my front seat. And the 12 pack looks deflated.
OOO DUHHH I'm a dumb-ass and I left it out here. Damn that sucks. But whatever
I'll go get some rags and wipe up the chair.
So I pick up the 12 pack, the cardboard falls apart and the soda start exploding as I am trying to remove them from my car.
1st one explodes in the car and showers my front area, into the vents, radio
you get the picture.. All those hard to clean places, and of course the seat fabric is now ruined.
The next one shoots straight into my eye. (I kid you not) which of course stings and them 2 more explode in secession all over my clothes. I drop them,
traumatized. I hear 1 more go as it hits my driveway.
So I stand there for a moment. Soda up my nose, my lashes stuck together and my eyes stinging. Soda drops from my hair into my face and I think to myself
DAMN IT I SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME!
And of course all of this transpires for my neighbors viewing pleasure.
