I was quite chuffed at my own (orange flame) stupidity today.
I needed to drop Kharyn's car at our fave mechanic for a SLIGHTLY (4 months) overdue warrant this morning and hadn't thought about how to get home.
He's on the other side of town.
"She'll be right, I'll just get the car there and work something out"
My red flame was too tight to shell out for a taxi or an uber, the bus service across town is as easy to navigate as the Wanaka Maze and it was a lovely day so I thought "I'll just start walking, something will turn up!" As I walked I thought "I know! Lime scooter!"
However, as my dumb luck would have it my payment method on Uber was playing up so as I tried to fix that while walking I aimlessly walked seven blocks in the wrong direction! Once I had the right card loaded in and had redirected my aimless rambling, wouldn't you know it? I couldn't find a lime scooter anywhere.
So I kept walking. ...and walking ... and walking.
"No worries" I said out loud to myself/ "I'll listen to a whole podcast - every cloud has a silver lining!"
I walked 7k's home and STILL hadn't worked out a plan.
And as soon as I hobbled in the door.....
......'ping!'
"This is Greg Hantz Autos - your car is ready to collect" .....
