So my car has no windshield wipers, see last weeks post. Anywhoo, I called the dealership to bring it in for service and they said that they were backed up. What else is new? When are they ever not backed up? "Well, you can bring it in tomorrow (friday) but you wont have it back til Monday." The man on the phone said. "Oh no, that will never work, what will I do all weekend? Is it supposed to rain or snow? Do you know?" I asked. Suddenly I was making this man my gd, asking him to speak of the future. "No" he says. "Okay then, Ill bring it in Wednesday for same day service." I declared. Glad we got that settled, right?
WRONG.
This morning the snow came piling out of the sky. Chunks, flecks, babies, ya know, the whole nine. I had class and needed to get to the city. Luckily, my parents have an extra car that my little sister refuses to drive. THE VW BUG. Yep, thats right, "Hi, Dad, can I borrow the beetle?" Done and done. Yes, I hit the snow storm in a bug. No, Not very smart, but I NEEDED to get to class today.
So now.... Im used to driving a truck where im queen of the road, but- In this thing, not so much. I was a mere, well, beetle. Adjusting wasnt easy. When I hit a major intersection at a red light, I slammed on the brakes causing two other cars behind me swerving out of the way, speeding by and honking me, giving me the finger. The view from the rear view scared the living shit out of me. These cars seriously couldve finished me off at the speed they were going. Soda can crushed, style.
I could have DIED, no joke. Gd likes me lately. I love him too. But it was right then and there that I thought about myself getting so badly mangled in this car, where id be unrecognizable if they hit me.
It was then that I thought to myself, how would anyone identify me??
Well, guess what, fellow readers- Here are two things you need to know, If im ever ya know, in trouble, and you need to know that its the real me.. (Remember that movie OVERBOARD with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, when they kidnap her to their hillbilly family after she drowns at sea?? Then they need to identify her at the police station because she has amnesia?! Ugh, I loved that movie as a kid)
1. I have a beauty mark in the shape of a heart on my right foot, by the inner ankle area. Its a tiny one, but you can definitely see it. How freaking jealous are you??
2. On the inside of my lip, I have a ball, from when I was a little kid and had my first cavity filled in. They numbed my gums, which numbed my lip. I chewed the living shit out of my lip until I looked like bozo the clown and had to be put on antibiotics for 10 days for it. Yes, that made me a cannibal unwillingly. WHAT?? Kids should not get Novocain, at such a young age without their mouths being glued completely shut afterwards, til the numbness wears off. Just sayingg...
So yeah, that debacle left a small ball in my lip on the left side of my bottom lip. You cant feel it, but if youre looking for it, its there.
So now, if you didnt know, now ya know.
xo.
