This just happened. It was like, “right now”, but it isn’t right now because “right now” I’m typing. But it was as soon as “right now” can be without being “right now”.
I needed a screw driver. My screw driver is in the tool box. Normally the tool box is in the big truck, but I remembered that today it is in the garage.
I have a piece of art in a frame, but I don’t want it in the frame anymore so I need a screw driver. Maybe more tools later. Who knows. It is unknown and unknowable.
So I went to get the screw driver which is in the garage. I had to walk up the stairs.
At the top of the stairs as I entered the kitchen I saw potato chips on the counter. They were not put away yet because Amazon just delivered them and I wanted to remember to tell Pam all about how I’d just ordered them this morning and they were already there.
Seeing them made me want some so I opened the package. Of course I needed dip which was in the refrigerator. So I got the dip. It was all but out. What idiot would put it empty back into the refrigerator? Since only two people live here and only one eats this dip. I was pretty sure that he was the one who put it back in there. And he is me.
Then I had to stop eating because I will eat the whole bag if not careful.
I had to find something to close the bag so that the chips didn’t get soggy and there were no clips to be found. So I had to search. And search.
Pam’s not here to ask where things are. She knows where everything is. There is probably and “Omni” word for that. It wouldn’t be “omnipresent”. Or omnipotent. Maybe it would be “omniknowsewhereverythingis”.
So I closed up the chips and went downstairs to get back to work on my piece of art that has a frame, but now I don’t want the frame.
And now, when I arrive downstairs I realize that I need a screw driver which is upstairs. In the garage. Past the kitchen. Past the potato chips.
Dare I try it again?
