Unpunished! It's happened time and again to me, and it's probably because once you are on a roll.. of doing good deeds and having it come back and hit you, it becomes a sensitization issue. I won't number the times this week where I helped someone out, and it just came right back at me, but the most recent little story just might ring a bell with the lot of you.
Today, I'm going to get some ant-killer because I noticed this caravan of ants all the way from the curb to my door, and a nice bunch inside feasting on something I couldn't see... freaked me out. I got to the local store to get the kills-all-from-space-even spray, and I see this young kid pushing a car down the road... I'm like.. just keep walking, just keep walking...
Then he gets in the car and his girlfriend gets in back of the car. Granted she's far more muscular than him... I chuckle to myself, and then it happens.. I decide. I stop, turn around, and go and help. I start pushing alongside her, and we make it to the gas station about 1/4 mile away, and push it up the drive and into a stall... I'm just discovering how winded I am, but I muster a "High five!", then shake the gents hand in the car and leave. Oh, everything is great. I feel good, they are safe at a gas station, and I go home to incinerate some ants after buying the nuclear option of end all ant-hood.
About an hour later, I'm feeling some pain. Oh yeah. My left achilles is swole, and I'm like... yeah. Time for the ice.
Thanks for reading this rant and I hope you all learned your lesson!
Don't run out of the house to get bug-nuke without proper shoes because you may need to help push a car to a gas station, and crocks without socks just won't cut it...
Who am I kidding? I'd do it again. It was fun.
Now share. What stupid good deed did you do that turned on you.
