Scooter Drama

Who was out both scooters for a couple days? this chick…that’s who – I cannot make this shit up!

So a few weeks ago I decided to go do my eyebrows because I was tired of looking like a caveman and because I was also feeling for samosas, I could kill 2 birds with 1 stone since there’s an Indian cafe right next to the eyebrow place. Perfect! The weather that day was also perfect so I had to get out. I did my usual – request the Lyft car, roll outside to meet Keisha (hoping for the best because I’m still very judgmental when it comes to female Lyft drivers) and we were off. 15 minutes later, we pulled up, she unloaded Optimus, I sat and powered him up and the horn started blaring. Confused, I pressed the horn button because I figured that it was depressed and I just needed to jiggle it or something. Well, that did nothing. what the?? we dismantled the thing and put him back together and, as soon as I turned on the power, the horn started blaring again. steups. well, I was there for a reason and I wasn’t about to go back home, so I just had to go bold and hope that I didn’t piss off too many people. Luckily, it was only happening when the power was on so I had some control. My eyebrows done, I had to decide if I still wanted to go get samosas. I did, so I entered the restaurant. It was my first time in there and I was thoroughly embarrassed when I discovered that it was a small, intimate dining room (it looks much larger from outside). Anyway, everyone was sitting enjoying their lunch and here came Stacey with this constant blaring horn – sigh! Anyway, I got my samosas and a few days later Optimus was in the shop.

A week later, I went to brunch using Max (the new one). P dropped me home he took Max out the car, put the key in, turned it and it broke in two – 1 piece was in his hand and the other was in the keyhole. What the?!? We got me inside somehow (boy was I glad that I hadn’t taken Lyft home) but for 2 days, I was grounded. Optimus was in the shop and Max couldn’t be turned on. Luckily, it wasn’t an issue because I work from home and I actually didn’t have to do anything for those 2 days. It was during that time, that I discovered that most locksmiths in my area don’t touch mobility scooters with a 10 foot pole, primarily because of how small the key is, but luckily I found one who came out and took care of my issue.

I can’t make up these stories…it’s never a dull moment when I’m involved. Geez! Anyway, I gone so, talk to allyuh later.
