So this morning, I went into work. The store was closed, but the office staff came in. I told my coworkers that I would be there at exactly 7 am. I goofed and forgot my lunch. I had to run back home, and got there slightly after everyone else. As a result, I had to open the gates myself. I flung the first one open and worried that the gate was going to fly back and hit my car. So I quickly drove through and jumped out of the car to close the gate.
Whoops! I forgot to do one tiny thing - put the car in park!
See, my car has this button that you push to put it in park. I forgot to push it. As I turned around after closing the gate, I saw it rolling towards the next gate. I started running after it. "NO NOOOOOO!" I almost caught up to it. Had I been wearing different shoes, I would have caught it. But no such luck and Yolanda, my little black Prius ran right into the gate making a crushing noise (or was that my heart?). Damn.
Fortunately, it was only the bumper that was damaged. I'll have to take it in in mid December for a new one. Merry Fucking Christmas to me!
Okay. Please stop laughing now.
