Goddam money. Always ends up making you blue |
| So i was about to fill up with petrol, like I do every Tuesday coz every1 knows Tuedays are the day to buy petrol at a good price.I do it every week on a Tuesday, whether i need it or not.Sometimes i dont need it, coz my car has a pretty good range, but if i dont get it on tuesday then i'll have to get it on thursday or some time when i'm running late or watever.So I was about to fill up and this car pulls up behind me so im thinking, i'll be decent and move forward coz the pump in front of me was vacant, so they dont have to wait for me to fill up coz im not too quick at the servo.So i did.And then im filling up and i always like to fill it to like the 29th click just so i know im full and i won't have to be back at a servo any time soon.And these two in the car behind me ar still sitting in their car and they start honking their horn and throwing their arms up.(They havent filled their car up by the way, they are just sitting there honking and looking exasperated).So i finished pumping and and like 'what?' and the woman driving, who looked something like a cross between the crazy cat lady and deborah mailman is shouting incomprehensibly about me moving my car or something and the guy next to her who may or may have not been the bush tucker man was swearing and rambling out the window.And as I was using the watering can to wash the side of my car where i always spill petrol, always, Im thinking well, im at a gas station, filling up, i dont think im doin anything wrong.I wasn't really worried or scared or anything, the weren't gonna bash be with sticks or nothing and if they did i wasn't gonna die or nothing but i was damn angry coz i tried to do something nice by moving forward so they could fill up and it turns out that ma and pa kettle are actually just passing through the Mobil and I was blocking their lane, apparently.So anyways i went and paid and expected to return to a torched toyota, but they were still muttering and sitting in the car glaring at me. And thats when i accidentally laughed, i mean, they could have easily turned around and gone around the other way but no they were gonna pass by my specific pump, come hell or highwater...Anways, deborah mailman sees me laughing and starts her car again and moves forward so shes like on my bumper.And i decided in my annoyed state to wash my windscreen with the squeegy thing, pretty much to show her that this is a gas station and this is what you do at a gas station.so i did that then got back in the car and started the engine and took my time to reset the trip meters and all that.Then i drove out.And she guns it through the pumps, flies over the gutter, smacks the bottom of her 80's commodore or watever the hell it was on the gutter and flies off round the corner.That happened the other week, but I was reminded of it when i went to fill up today.I still don't understand why that sat behind me for ten mins instead of going around or making out or something other than just sit there as tho they had no choice.Whatever.More importantly i had the urge to read this week, i bought Nighteen Eighty Four by George Orwell which i started ages ago but lost the book part way through.And I also bought The Catcher In The Rye and im so into this book its not even funny.Im gonna be mighty upset when its over and i never get like that over books, but this book, im really into it.It makes me laugh, I laugh at a goddamn book?Anyway its the most interesting book I ever did read.But yeah I have nothing real big to write about, im kinda just filling in the time.Until what I dunno.Sometimes I just fill in the time until the time comes to fill in time if you get what I mean.You do.A smart kid like you.Of course you do.eXOnerate me. |
