I am not a happy camper right now.
I get off work at 3:30 on Friday’s. I really look forward to that because I have an extra time to get something done. It feels like I get an extra hour and a half of life on Friday…like setting the clocks back at the end of Daylight Savings Time except that it happens in the middle of the day when I can actually enjoy it!
Today’s hour and a half started out so promising!
On my way to work Monday morning, my front passenger turn signal light on my Paseo popped out of its place and was swinging and dangling on its wire as I drove down the freeway. I cannot imagine how THAT must have looked to the other drivers!
When I got to work, I asked the man who runs the auto body shop directly across the street from my place of employment how much it would cost to fix it. He did it for free!
Later that afternoon, I went over to shake his hand and thank him. I patiently waited while he gave an estimate to fix some minor damage on the rear this woman’s Escalade. His price was good…REALLY good!
A thought occurred to me, “Maybe he can help me with my project car!!!”
I went over today after work to see if he could give me a quote to do the bodywork and paint on my Thunderbird. He told me to take pictures of every section of my car and he would give me a quote on Monday morning.
I thought, “Why wait until tomorrow? I have an extra hour and a half!”
So, I drove over to the place where my Thunderbird is parked…
except the house was missing!
I spent over an hour looking for that house. It turns out that I had “remembered” the wrong street!!! When I finally found my car, it was too dark to take the pictures! And, this week’s hour and a half was gone!
RAZZA-FRAZZA!
