life socks: a reality

if one wonders why we always complain about that... well here's a live example from today.

i wake up, go to have a shower and remember i put the towel in the laundry yesterday. which is still drying in the machine. i know should not use that machine too much. not very sustainable. but with this cloudy gray german sky you never know if your laundry is going to dry outside...
anyway, i go pick up the laundry and guess??? didn't work, it's all still wet! so i spend half morning hanging everything outside thus making the whole drying machine effort useless.
feel stupid.

am late, go out in a hurry, try to pick up the car. i never use the car but actually needed it tonight. and guess?? the battery is totally down!!! what if my dad is right and i should have come and turned it on sometimes?? damn, i hate it so much when he's right! plus it hasn't been that freezing these days! anyway, go to work and try to find someone with those wires to recharge the battery. at least that's what i thought. and then everybody start telling me these stories about broken battery and how much you have to pay for a new one, or these small little animals like rats or hamsters that like biting the wires in your engine and basically destroy your car!!! i was getting crazy...

but still, sometimes life is colourful, just like socks... so the mean guy with the beard who's in my office found some wires from his neighbour and we recharged the battery and it was just fine... he's not that mean after all ;)
but then i had to drive all the time because i was afraid that if i turned the engine off then the car wouldn't have started again...

so i travel 60 km, including going to mannheim and see a jazz concert, which was pretty good. charlie haden and brad mehldau, shit they're really good, just the acoustic of the place was awful. after all, what do you expect from a round church?! but still, nice evening in the end. didn't expect it though from how the day started
