Rimmer's Random Story

[rmr]

Ok, so i left the house today. I should know better, but I thought I'd be safe. I put on my headphones, those horrible Sony ones that are bright yellow and i think I've actually owned them since the 9th grade. Ok, back on track....I put Simon on his leash and we are off for a walk.

It was a rather nice afternoon and the music that was on was the best of the worst......I love horrible cheesy music when I'm out walking. Simon and I were about to turn the corner and I had one of those odd feelings that told me "No, go this way", so I went with it.

At that exact moment Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart comes on. You know the one....."Turn around bright eyes, every know and then I fall apart and I need you tonight and something about love in the dark"......My wish at that exact moment was that I was very drunk and at a Karokee bar....singing to my hearts content.

But that was not in the cards, for I looked up to see a 100 lb. black German Shepherd running at me. HOLY CRAP!!! That's exactly what I was thinking. I gotta get out of here. In my terror I forgot about Simon. I look down at him and the little bastard thinks this big boy is running over to come play. In the next moments i officially turned into my mother. Yes, it finally happened to me. I picked Simon up, lifted over my head and tried to stand as still as possible. My mother likes to make scenes and that is just what i did.

I was some what relieved that a woman was running after the dog, calling his name but that didn't stop his charging at us. So I start yelling (remember I'm standing completely erect with a Chihuahua over my head), I mean YELLING....."IF HE COMES NEAR MY DOG I WILL HURT HIM, I WILL, I'LL KILL HIM" In hindsight this is quite funny since the only thing that I could use to protect myself was my feet and I was wearing flip-flops.

Luckily the lady got him and I'm glad to report that Simon and I are ok. But the thing that really bothers me the most is that that Bonnie Tyler song always reminded my of my boyfriend in high school and how pissed I was at him when he made his first attempt to stick his hand up my shirt. Yes, that was our make-out song and I now will look at it quite differently.....the song will know always mean SURVIVAL!!!

I also learned that hell hath no fury than a mother pushed to the brink......no one's going to hurt my little baby....he now has a new name "Mommy's little miracle"

God I love that bastard and how was your day?
