Well, I was feeling cute yesterday and set out to go to the bar after it stopped raining.
However, about a block away from my house, there's some new construction and it was kinda muddy and puddly. Naturally, I stepped through the puddles and squished through whatever mud wouldn't destroy my shoes. After all, I am a wammer.
Well, one of these puddles actually ended up being a flooded hole in the sidewalk, and I fell right into about belly deep muddy water, with with a thick blanket of mud up to about my knees.
I was pretty stunned, because, well, I didn't expect the sudden plunge, and also, because getting messy in a situation like this (sorta like you see in sitcoms) is definitely a light fantasy / day dream. It took me about a stunned minute to take it in. Thought about it critically for a second, wiggled around and tried to enjoy the experience, then had to claw my way out by clinging to large pile of muddy dirt that was conveniently next to the hole. (That shoulda been a hint.)
I was really stuck, and almost lost my shoes. I had fight to wiggle out.
It was late enough on a rainy night that no one was around to see this or help me, but it happened.
Now, while something like this is a bit of a fantasy, and it's kinda fun to have an excuse to be messy, especially in public, and while I even love trashing a good fit, I'm not too thrilled to have ruined my good whites, or to have been submerged in gross city flood construction water. Also, the mud was pretty gritty. (Anyone ever had accidental sploshing?)
An upside to this story, is that I've been wanting to produce more content, and have started to, but this has really lit the flame.
I just pray I don't have mrsa or something , and that I can get the dirt out of my whites. (I like a dirty white, but like, a built over time punk rock grit. Not a full tea-dyed mud dip.) Actually, if anyone has any good tips for me to clean the whites, that would be great. I'll definitely be pulling up spotless sploshing when I'm done with work today.
Love you, too
