the fix,.....is in. (we do our part for the environment)

So as I was chump-gearing-101 this morning for work, I played a monumental bust up on me'flat mate named Angela. To protect her identity (which I just gave away like a bad check) we'll just recognize her as "b-ster".

As the story begins you must understand that the 2 of us share 1 car & thus carpool to work most everyday. Carpooling is convenient, (for me at least) saves on gas, money, insurance, etc. b-ster happens to be off today & promptly scheduled the grooming of her fine head this AM - Quarter ta Ten. The agreement was a ride to workie-work from b-ster then a pick up in the PM.

Soon after waking I noticed a fallen tree trunk of a person (still) laying in bed, unresponsive, unmoving, stagnant & inactive. So I'm thinking how can I get this mope awake, in driving condition & ready to move? Instantly the simplest of ideas crept in & as I'm walking out of the love-making area I quietly recite the following words: "bye, b". (end pt.1)

(start pt. 2)
As I slowly pulled the door shut behind me, I swear I heard the faintest of words being mumbled in the dark crevasse immediately to my rear. "wwhat?" - exclaimed b-ster. "bye, b" - I inaudibly repeated. (the fix was on)

Accelerating to the couch for a front row view of the show I knew I would get, I waited for only a few lingering moments until my efforts were rewarded. b-ster came running out of the room as I'm sure she thought her grooming appointment was all but thrashed into broken little dreams (with me whisking away to work with her one viable mode of transport). The look on her face when she saw me knotting the laces of my Clarks was boisterously laughable at best.

Then, the look of the defeated, the tricked, the taken, each set in her contorted face like lumpy dumplings. She knew she'd been had - been riddled out of bed against her will. The ambushed took a seat next to the ambush(er) on the couch & jolly laughing was said to be heard up to 2 miles away. Lessons learned? He who riseth most early, get to play devilish tricks! or, don't stay in bed when you're supposed to give me a ride.
