No…it’s still spinning…
Ok , so today while out,still pounding the pavement for a job,it started to rain.Wouldn’t be so bad if I was in a car,but no.I just had to be on my motorcycle.Luckily I had weather protection gear in the seat.Was a sight for others to go by and see my rush and frustration ,putting it on in the parking lot of one of my choice public places to place my application in. lol. As usual I gritted my teeth a little but held up like a soldier and proceeded to get on and change my destination to “homeward bound”. Distance was approx. 15-20min drive so off I went.Next thing I know within say 5 mins after my departure I heard a sort of snap and scrap sound that errupted quickly from the side of my bike.Coasted to a minimal stop while motor is still sounding great.Throttled up and,..NO GO!
There I was getting soaked on the edge of a quite busy highway with the wisp of lovely transfer trucks barreling by me.At this point I was on a steady stroll of taking my cycle for a walk to the nearest,thank you GOD,…Church believe it or not, like 12ft away from me,down the road.Gasping somewhat from the difficulty and strain of trying to not to loose my grip of this,” TRANSPORTAION “,I was hauling on foot,I pushed it in and found shelter…whew.By this time I was thinking whoah,it’s a good thing I decided to place minutes on my cell just the day before or this would have been a much more interesting journey huh? Flipped it open and first thing that came to mind was to call the shop&tow place and come and rescue me ,right? Its’s a simple little place and decideds its own times on closing! IT WAS 4:43pm.Oh no…I hear ringing and NO ANSWER.Tried again.. thinking aloud,”please,someone pick up,..please!”Behold,by the third goround, I got an answer.Explained my situation and his reply was “Girl…give or take a few more seconds and I would have been already in my truck outside here and not heard the ringing from within the shop!
My goodness it wouldn’t stop ringing so I decided to get my keys and something told me to come back in and answer this ____ phone!
Needless to say,I let him vent and he said he would be there to pick it up in about 10mins.so there I waited.Called son,mother,heck even called my ex…lol. All ,no answer.Grrrr…oh this day is just getting better by the minute,I thought to my self.Sometimes I wish the world would STOP SPINNING,just for a moment,and let me off for a bit to take a break.Just for a little bit. well back to the end of the story.My rescuer/tow guy, gave me a lift home safe and sound.Next big surprize was the bill
