  • The Truck that Ruined Valentine's Day

    I've ignored my Xanga in an effort to force you into watching my video, heh. But I'll relent and actually tell you a REAL LIFE STORY! Woo-hoo!

    Last night on Valentine's Day, I noticed a car was stuck in the snow in a parking lot I pulled into. I decided to stop and help them. It turns out they were two pretty women my age, and they were trying to dig the tires out with a little ice scraper. All of a sudden I realized--is this a dream setup or what? Two pretty women, together on Valentine's Day, needing help for their car to be pushed out of the snow...at worst, I get to help two women in need, at best, I may walk off with some digits. My luck is finally turning around, after a month or two of every potential romantic option running away from me as if I had the Black Plague and...wait, what's that?

    All of a sudden a truck with 4-wheel drive pulls up next to the car. This pudgy guy with badly dyed hair, on a date with his girl, offers to push them out with his truck. He does that in two seconds, and I'm left looking silly. I mean, what do I say now to the girls? "Hey, why don't you stay out here in the freezing cold for 10 more minutes while I tell you how I would have helped you if the truck never arrived?" So I say good night, and the two ladies drive off. So in other words, man already with a date gets to look kind and helpful...man without a date trudges in the snow back to his car, feeling inept. I think it's funny now--it's not every day one gets outwitted by a truck as a romantic rival--but I certainly didn't think it was funny as I was walking back to my car!

  • I'm glad to know I'm not the only one living my life.   You're living it too I see.   I'm a bit older than you....alright a lot older than you, so I know what happens in this life.   You'll be just fine in the future!   You'll be fine because life in the future will be more of  the same.   Sorry about your luck.

    Blessings,

    Lonnie

  • heheh welli think if done right, you still could have come away with numbers..... if that is your goal. but if that is your goal, there are a lot easier ways to get it then breakdowns....

  • Well I'd say its time for you to get a four wheel drive truck  j/k   Hey, check out my new post!  It even has a tribute to you.  Although I need to check my uploads 2 videos weren't posted correctly, enjoy the one that is posted :)

  • You should have said something along the lines of "Well, since I got robbed of the opportunity to dig you out, maybe I can still make good on my promise to buy dinner for you."

    And if you're witty like you usually are, you would have thought of a way to make it happen.
