Extravaganza to Embarrassment

Man wednesday was absolutely crazy. That morning i woke up at 6 to help Steve Rutter deliver the Dunborough papers (the Mail) to all the markets and stuff, cos im doing it for him next wednesday as he is on holiday. It was pretty fun, and easy. Basically just cruising around packing heat, in the form of newspapers.

Then later on Jackson had his Music Extravanganza at school. He has copped a fair bit of shit about it from the rest of us, you know, we make all the poofter jokes and stuff. So he's basically got huge balls to still go ahead and do it, and he ended up singing Im Yours (You'll love this Kel), by Jason Mraz. He got the hugest applause when the MC dude announced he was about to sing, everyone loves him at that school hey. Im hella jealous. Anyway here is a link to the youtube vid of it, its worth it.

So on the way home from that, after picking all the kids, we are driving along and we stop at the Lights near mulks house cos its a red light. You sort of have to stop for red lights. And then the engine does this weird thing and starts shuddering, then stalls. Mum tried to boot it up again but it wouldnt go, and we realised then that the Petrol Light was on for a reason. So here we are, right in the middle of the intersection at peak hour, and we have no idea what were gonna do so we just flip on the hazard lights and Mum calls some friends. One of them was nearby so she said she was on her way.

So we are waiting for her, and then this school bus of older kids, like 1 or 2 years younger than me rock up right next door. I was about to die of embarrassment but then i got over it and realised pretty quickly that it was a good photo op, so i got the camera out and filmed the situation for everyone. Im pretty sure that everyone thought i was a hell big tool but who really cares? I tired to put the vid on here but it took too long, i will try again on youtube.

In the end, Mums friend came and helped us push the car around the car where we abandoned it. It was a pretty shit 10 minutes it fair to say.
