Don't you hate when you do the things you know better to do and yet do them anyway, only to see it blow up in your face. The ironic part is that I was driving around tonight after a long day of work, tough workout, and trip to the store at 1am trying to relax from my day only to realize that God has one hell of a sense of humor and will force you to get out of your head and take the time to look at the stars when you least expect it.
I used to drive a '99 GMC Jimmy and had nothing but problems with it. Saying I would never buy an old used vehicle again, I bought and actually saved money from maintenance on new cars. However, when I realized that my Mazda Miata wouldn't last a winter in MI weather, I bought an '03 Hyundai Santa Fe. As most cautious people do, I had it checked out while on a test drive to make sure it was in adequate driving condition. Surprise, Surprise, nothing but problems.
After my day, I felt the perfect cure was a nice, soothing drive, on back roads to examine whats running through my brain. Flash to where I am now. Pulled over on the side of said back road waiting for AAA to save my ass, yet again. At least I've gotten my moneys worth from them. I was driving along, enjoying the hypnotic sensation I find in driving, singing songs out loud to get some aggression out and bam. WTF I have a flat tire. Ha Ha you have got to be kidding me. I'm in the middle of nowhere. I have a cornfield to my right and one random house to my left. Well, at least I have a spare this time.
At first, I was pissed. As I began to laugh out loud, I realized that the first thing I did was tilt my seat back and open up the sunroof, like I did last week while I was at state land property. Ha Ha The other night, I just needed to escape, drove to state land, listened to my favorite music, not feeling that relaxed in a long time. Guess I needed this again.
Thank you for the few random cars to stop, seeing if I was OK. I am but unfortunately, the only AAA partners who woke up to help me live in Flint and cant make it out here for an hour. And unfortunately, you, with your porn star mustache or lack of hygiene are to creepy to help a young lady who was stupid enough to leave the gym without putting a bra on. Ha Ha I did keep my door locked for everyone except for when I saw a flashing light, thinking it was my AAA guy, got out of the car. The man reached for me giving me a hug only to say he was from road commission just passing by. As he was leaving he told me to lock my door.
If it couldn't get any funnier, while I was driving I was thinking about what to write on my blog since my life has been so mundane lately. I was thinking about writing why people drink. Ha Ha seriously! This is why. People need some form of escape from reality. I, like a lot of people I know, am a control freak. I like being in charge of my life and wanna know/be prepared whatever coming next. However, this gets very exhausting causing you sometimes to go off the deep end. This is when you can forget all you inhibitions, reasoning, cautions. It allows you to not say whats really on your mind, yet sometimes do. Ha ha I really want a beer, actually make that a shot of Jameson.
(I wrote that all while I was patiently in my car. This came after, I got home)
My grandparents showed up to sit with me. They now know I started smoking again due to all the cigarette butts on the road by my door. I told them that I was safe to be left alone when the flashing lights showed up. However, it wasn't AAA but the road commission man again, seeing a car behind mine, worried it was a predator, he was trying to save me. BTW this was as I was hanging up trying to find where AAA was, having them tell me their guy was gonna be delayed for another hour. Apparently, I give a good hug because the road commissioner changed my tire for me. While trying to give him money, he simply replied that he had two little girls and could only hope someone would stop to do the same for them.
Being kind enough to follow me home, he witnessed the thing no one would ever expect. That's right, as I was turning the corner to Bowers Road, where I live now, I hit a F**king deer. You cant make this shit up! He stopped, asked what happened and called the police. All I can think is did this really just happen?
Oh and BTW On Tuesday, I spent $400 to get new brakes and roaters for this car and switched my deductible to $2000 when I switched insurance for some reason, and yes, it is 4:30 AM. Sorry, I edit these before I post, but like I said, It's 4:30 and for some reason, I can't sleep. Awesome!! Ha Ha Ha
Hugs & Kisses
