Fasten Your Seatbelts

Okay, back to my crazy, nonsensical posts. I observed a couple of interesting things since last night...

First off, one of my neighbors drove home COMPLETELY PLASTERED last night! How do I know? Well, there was a HUGE space in front of my house (we have mostly street parking) and he proceeded to try and parallel park (when he could've just pulled in). It took him about 15 mintues to "grind" it into reverse. He burned rubber, jerked the wheel too hard and proceeded to jump the curb. He then threw it into drive and gassed it and drove straight into the Corolla in front of him. Ouch.

His license plate got hooked beneath the Corolla's plate. His right rear tire was still stuck on the curb. He tried to reverse. His tires just spun. He tried to move forward and crunched the Corolla even more (also, my car was behind the Corolla and I was soooo afraid tht he was going to push it into my car!). This went on for a good 15 minutes!! The whole time he has this "gangsta" rap blaring at top volume (out of his two-door Escort - hee).

He finally gave up and decided to leave his car where it was. But not before blasting some reggae for the entire neighborhood to enjoy. After the free concert, he decided to head inside. But not before getting out of his car and rummaging around for 5 minutes, slamming the door closed, and dropping a bunch of crap in the middle of the street. He couldn't remember what building he was in...so he walked up and down the street for a little while, finally tripping on the curb before heading off to his apartment.

Not to be a bitch, but for once I was so glad that I didn't park in front of my building.

On my way to work this morning, there was a car driving next to me. Some one started to pull out in front of him and he swerved to the left a little. As he did, the apple in his hand flew out the open window across three lanes of traffic and bounced away. Hee hee...I almost crashed I was laughing so hard!! Run, little apple, run!
