The day before I'd bought a bottle of wine and put it on a little table by my desk.
When the alarm went off at 6:30 the next morning I got up, it was dark, I wanted to turn on the lights which means stepping on a switch thing under the little table.
Trying to reach it while trying to hold my balance and not step on things on my floor I must have waved my hand around, I just know I felt the top of the bottle, then heard the loudest crash.
I must have got the lights on at the same time cuz I kinda froze for a second when I saw where it had landed. Luckily only a carpet, a couple red pillows and some paper I didn't need got wet. If it hadn't have been for that carpet and I'd have been using wine-stained books the rest of the semester.
And that's how it happened. I do the most amazing things...
As for the oil tanker - yes that really is a mess. Birds are dying all over the place. Today they even found birds with oil on their feathers in the centre of Bergen. They won't live much longer.
I believe this would be an "oh sh-t" moment.
ReplyDeleteHow'd a broken bottle of wine end up on the floor anyway? Or am I better off not knowing what's not my business anyway?
p.s. - I heard about the oil tanker by Bergen. Now THAT's a friggin' mess.
