Who left the gravity on?
Oct. 7th, 2007 11:40 pmSo remmeber when I said I might have puppy stories in the future. Where here is one I didn't expect to have. You see my parents have a two story house. They built the second story years ago to be a studio for rehersing plays and also to build sets in. Because of that there are these two french doors on the front that open off into nothing. There's a pully outside so that we can lift large set pieces in and out of the upstairs wihtout having to deal with the stairs themselves.
So anyway, we realized that we got too many flats (the fake walls for a play) so we opened up the doors to hand them down to someone so we could take them back to storage. No sooner did we open the doors than our dog York ran right for them. He stopped at the edge, and we started to call him, worried he might fall. He didn't, he jumped. First he jumped a couple of feet to the remander of the houses hold roof. Then he jumped all the way down to the ground, about eight feet or so. Freaked us out, but he's competely unharmed, and obviously thought it was a lot of fun. Why the dog jumped out of the second story windows? We have no idea. He wasn't trying to escape. He just hung out in the front yard until the guy who we were going to hand stuff down to shooed him back inside. He does like staring out of those doors at the traffic though, so maybe he's been planing that for the last three weeks ever since we brought him home.
Sadly, that wasn't my only run in with gravity today. Just a little bit ago in an amzing act of clumziness I managed to not only knock my laptop onto the floor, but to spill water on it too. I'm just praying that it comes through all right. Unfortunatly I don't have the right kind of screwdriver to open it up so it can dry out, and it's too late to go get one now. So guess what I'm doing first thing in the morning before work :( Luckily it was just plain water, so hopefully there's not any real damage. But man, I need it to be okay. There's no way I can afford a new one, and using my old one is driving me nuts (although thank god I kept my old computer, or I'd be in real trouble). This would of course happen the day before I'm supposed to start my next computer class. The hardest part is that it may be a while till I know for sure since I'll need to let it all dry out before I try plugging it into anything.
