OOps I Did IT Again!!! .....%*/@!!!*#^*)_?<+=={]{ YES, those are cussin words!!!
It is late at night and you pull up in front of the garage door. Darkness is so thick that you can cut it with a knife. You grab the garage door remote in both hands and anticipate the moment. You ask yourself, "should I or shouldn't I?" As your heart races and your temperature rises, you slap yourself to take control of yourself and push the button. The rain comes down harder
and harder and the garage door begins to open. One inch, two inches. As it nears the halfway point, you can scarcely take the suspense. What will this moment reveal as your headlights begin to scan the horizon?
As your eyeballs fill with blood you can only hope for the best. And now you can see it. Off in the distance is the infamous tennis ball hanging on a string to give you something to aim for.
It has been years since you have actually tried this but you are going to go for the gold ring. You are feeling frisky so you are going to actually try to park the car in the garage. Impossible? YES! Even your Jesus is my co-pilot bumper sticker is not going to help here because he is saying that he wants out and that you are on your own. He knows that it will take nothing short of a miracle to get that luxury sedan into that
tiny area that you call a garage.
Let me see, if I am careful and nudge those boxes with the bumper to get around the weight bench that has not been used for 5 years, (evident by my pants size) and I inch along the side of the kids bicycles to prevent scratching the motorcycle, yep, I just might be able to get er in the garage.
With gleeful anticipation, you gingerly move forward, one inch, two inches 3 inches 4, 5 inches 12 inches 5 feet more. Your eyes behold sights that you have not seen in years. So there is that old set of golf clubs. Oh...and look...my tennis rackets, I thought we sold them in a garage sale. Oh man, those were the days my friend. You serendipitously creep forward down memory lane and before too long....... YOU DID IT!!!
As the crowds cheer and throw confetti, you savor the moment. You have done what others have said was impossible. It is the equivalent of crossing the Atlantic in a row boat. Your name will be placed in the
Guinness Book of World Records and in Who's Who in America.......AND NOW YOU CANNOT OPEN THE DOOR TO GET OUT OF THE CAR!!!
Guess it is time to clean the garage!!!
