As I may have mentioned- my radiator cracked early on the 4th. I put a temporary seal on it which lasted until I special ordered a replacement- which I got in a few days before the seal fractured again. On Wednesday, I spent $500 changing it out (also with new hoses and belts). Three blocks from home today, I got a 1-inch nail in my back tire which promptly blew out (which sent me laughing at the irony of it all). Fortunately, I managed to get home before I was on the rim. And even more fortunately, my spare was new, full-sized, and fully inflated. As I was switching them out, I got a call back from this woman I'm being set up with (a 26-yoa urologist (guess we won't be talking too much about her job ("How was work?" "Lots of urine." "Well, we're done here."))). The phone was in my front pocket and had shifted so when it vibrated- it got my fullest attention. Too much in fact, as the jack slid and I received an inch-long gash on the back of my right hand. So I found myself making plans for lunch tomorrow- "first date" sort of plans, trying to sound chipper and "laid back" while wrestling to realign a jack in 95-degree heat while blood drips down my arm.
Yep, all in a day's work for Drama-Man.
All I needs is the cape.
