hitch

i was supposed to write something here, but i forgot was it was. and now i'm too lazy to try to recall. so there! lol!*

i was late for work this morning. i was supposed to be in the office by 9:30am but i arrived at around 10am. i usually come to the office at 7:30ish but this day was different. for one, my Dad was out of town. i had to commute. second, it was raining. along with the rain comes heavy traffic. fyi, it's really hard to commute when it's raining, especially if you don't have an umbrella. lol!*

so this is my adventure for the day...
i was standing under the stairs of an overpass. the rain was pouring. i had no umbrella, no jacket, no extra shirt. (it was a good thing i wasn't wearing my dress shoes.) the polo that i was wearing gets wet easily. i need to get to the other side of the overpass without getting wet. (or at least without getting VERY wet. lol!) out of desperation, (i was desperate to get to the office as soon as possible.) i decided to ask strangers with umbrellas if i could cross the street with them. i asked about 4 persons before i got a "hitch." now, how many people would do what i just did? not many, i think.*

it was not "happily ever after" after that. as i've mentioned, i was still late for work, despite my efforts. no thanks to the heavy traffic. oh, and the bus i was riding, it took a long route to avoid the traffic. because of that, the trip took longer that it should have. fcuk!*
