Go ahead, laugh!

It's been one of those couple of days. Just when I get my groove on, something happens to put a kink in the works.

I woke early on this day, put on some nice clean springy clothes. Beige jeans, funky little shoes, nice sweater and a matching canvas coat. Looks good!

On my way to work, I decided the van looked pretty dirty from all the melting snow so I pulled into the car wash and waited for the fellow ahead of me to finish washing his jeep. I watched him put the water jet thingy on top of the things that you usually clip your floor mats to wash them. No problem! In a few seconds I was in the bay and ready to wash the van.

I jumped out of the van, went to the back hatch and promptly whacked my knee on the towing hitch. (Insert vulgar swearing here!) I hobbled to the machine, inserted a loonie and the water jet thingy was caught on the clip for the floor mats and was caught in the "ON" position

Son of-a bitch! (Insert more vulgar swearing here!) My hair, my beige jeans, my canvas coat, my funky shoes, and my nice sweater, absolutely soaking wet!

I really would like to have seen the look on my face, it would have been priceless. Needless to say, I went home and changed. Now I have a cold and a limp! Go ahead, laugh!
