BAD TIMINGS

Posted on Jul 21, 2002 in Life by stoff 0 Comments

This weekend I set a new standard in great timing. Unfortunately, I also set a new standard for bad timing 🙁

It all started on friday evening when I got a little stomach ache. Nothing serious, or so I thought. Then I woke up on saturday morning feeling even worse. But a Neurofen or two took the pain away so I could enjoy the saturday morning Formula 1 practice. After that my sis calls me up and tells me to get my ass down to my parent’s place in Ösmo (about a 40 minute drive) because they had to see the F1 qualifying. Trying to live up to my “never say no to women”-rule I obliged, and after my brother Jocke was done playing his round of Warcraft III on the ‘net I averaged 120 kph going there and sat down in their soffa and turned on the TV exactly when the pit exit light turned green. Talk about excellent timing!

But then my stomach ache started up again and I slept a little, hoping that’d help. No such luck, so by Saturday evening I had to go home and tried to go to sleep again. Sunday morning comes and I can’t even sit up. I managed to walk the few meters from my bed to my TV soffa and from the soffa to my cola fridge, other than that I’ve spent all this day tucked down in front of the TV. And that is exceptionally bad this weekend! Because ever since we set a date for my friend Markus’ wedding I’ve been looking forward to his bachelor party. It’s one of the few forms of parties I’ve never been to (that and a bridal shower). And today was suppose to be the big day for that party. I’ve been looking forward to it a long time, even took monday off from work so I wouldn’t worry about the hangover. I feel so bad not beeing there to celebrate his last week as a bachelor. Damn, damn, damn. I just hope he had fun and that I can compensate next week during his wedding.
