It happened, AGAIN!

A couple of days ago, I was taking a break from editing my masterpiece, THE TEACHER'S LOUNGE:) when I heard a CRASH! For a split second, I thought the virtual IMPOSSIBILITY that my truck, parked INNOCENTLY outside my apartment, had been hit, AGAIN! I quickly dismissed that ludicrous delusion and assumed it was trash cans being put back in the garage area then proceeded to, peacefully, close my eyes and resume my lovely siesta and dream about the wonderful experience of making my latest film, The Teacher's Lounge! Just as I was venturing into the outer rings of R.E.M., I received a knock on my door, "Dude, someone just hit your truck!" "AGAIN," was my dazed and confused response to this news which validated, AGAIN, that two objects cannot occupy the same space at the same time! My beloved work truck, which has made cameos in all my films, and had just returned from the auto body shop, after being smashed by a loopy drunk guy, had been plummeted, AGAIN! This time it was a giddy, loopy, drunk girl. My friends, and foe alike, I am the first to proclaim, as I always have as a Fugue filmmaker, ANYTHING is possible in the City of Angels! Perhaps, my guardian Angel felt it necessary to relieve me of my truck for another few weeks. Why, I don't know; but, there are no mistakes, and I'm grateful giddy drunk girl wasn't injured, and that I wasn't in my vehicle at the time of the Physics phenomenon! I LOVE my LIFE! love, jd
