A close call

I thought I killed her.

She was dead that was for sure. The only question was whether or not I was responsible. The whole affair is rather hazy. Everything was going along fine, everybody was behaving and reacting just as they should. Then for some reason, having something to do with a missed phone call, I found myself in a fit of rage. I sort of blacked out. I was at least experiencing some sort of out of body phenomenon. And when I turned around, she was dead. At first I didn’t think so but as I checked for signs of life, I knew. She was no more.

I was inconsolable. What was I going to do? My roommate was going to kill me.

I tried with every fiber in my being to resuscitate her. I dredged up knowledge for bringing back life that I thought had been lost in the cobwebs of my mind. Finally at the brink of exhaustion, it was unequivocally apparent. She was indeed deceased. And yes my roommate was angry.

But being the upstanding guy he is, he removed the carcass from the apartment with a quick assurance that he would take care of it. But if he found out that I was indeed responsible, I would pay and pay dearly.

But I just found out this afternoon that it was a motherboard problem and not the software that I installed, so I’m in the clear.

Phew, what a load of my mind.

You scared The Flying Fuck out of me. You hear that? It was Flying. Capital F Flying.

You just won’t listen, will you?

I offered to loan you my spare computer;

Buuut Nnnnoooooooooo!!!

You had to go through all of that worry for nothing. Now it’s too late, I’ve gone and loaned it to my neighbor.

Rhully!

You know that’s just the sort of thing that could make you a lot of money in Thailand, or maybe even Tijuana.

Zenster, and don’t think I didn’t appreciate the offer, but I’ve been so moochy the last few months, I’m trying to take some steps to be a little more self sufficient. That’s why I killed my roommate’s computer. See?

Actually, he doesn’t use it, It’s his back up, so I have free reign on it, at least for online stuff, so it’s a very workable situation. As long it doesn’t commit hari-kari again.
