Moments like this make me wish that I drank more water and less coffee.
I’m walking down the shoulder of a busy freeway, my car waiting who knows how far behind me, gas tank empty, flashing its hazard lights and hoping to not get hit by another car.
I know it’s my fault, I just kept thinking that I could make the last drops of fuel last just a little longer, just until after work when I would treat it to a full tank.
I strongly believe in quantum theory and physics, so I believe that it’s always important to put out positive energy; but sometimes, no matter how much positivity you put into the world, it always seems to throw one day at you that just loads the scales on the other side.
This morning I was sound asleep, not a care in my unconscious mind, when I was pulled out of the best dreaming of my entire life–
–(probably, I don’t actually remember any of it)–
–by my girlfriend asking in a slight panic what time I was supposed to be in to work. The answer to said question just happened to be a half an hour ago.
Needless to say it’s been one of those days, and it’s not even noon yet.
I think I picked the wrong direction to walk on the freeway because it is a hell of a lot farther to the exit ramp than I thought.
Now I’m two and a half hours late to work, the weight of this new can of gas is wearing on my arm, I’m low on water and high on cold coffee, but at least I have a nice breeze on my face.
I can’t listen to music because the traffic is too loud. I would like to use this time to pay my car insurance but the automated phone system is voice activated so it wouldn’t understand me over the noise…
So I decide to start my blog that I’ve been putting off for the last couple weeks!
Hello everyone, I’m Jaye, and I’m an idiot who doesn’t put gas in my car.
What stupid things have you done lately?
