Moments of Permanence - Post a comment

About Post a comment

It's like a metaphor for something but I don't know what: May. 5th, 2014 @ 12:23 pm
I'm trying to start posting and reading DW again.

Things I Did Today include:

- Getting barefoot into a car not my own, carefully avoiding stepping on the broken glass in the footwell, to move the car a foot to the right, and having an embarrassingly long delay in the process because I had to work out how to put it in reverse.

("So, it's left of first and up, but it won't go... push down? Pull up? Are there any buttons, maybe, or is the left displaced up or down? ... Oh, there's a little ring I can pull up!")

Because my housemate's car window got smashed last week while he was off working somewhere I *believe* is probably a minesite, but I don't really know the details, but anyway, he's out there again this week.

I seemed ridiculously incompetent this morning when the woman from the glass repair people called to confirm the car's details, I'm sure, but the woman's professionally faint tone of frustration at my stupidity, apparently not knowing pretty much anything about the details of the car's make and model, vanished when I explained: "It's my housemate's car, not mine, but he's working FIFO."
