I had a problem with the rear door on my SUV. I tried to close it yesterday after taking out some stuff I picked up at the market, a dragon fruit, some rambutans, plumquats, and some kiwi.
I’m on a quest for new tastes. You may ask how I knew how to cut the dragon fruit. There were at least 10 YouTube sites to teach me.
At any rate, the back door wouldn’t lock. Not good in the parking lot of an apartment complex.
So early this morning I took the car into my reliable mechanic about a half a mile away with the back door swinging open. He fixed the lock in about two minutes. No charge.
He said, “I wish everything was that easy.”
He is so right. Just think about the things you have to do over the course of a week or two that are not only not easy, but damn hard and frustrating.
Take the lovely trip to DMV to get a license or and ID. Once you get in the door you see there are at least 50 people ahead of you. When you finally get to window Q7, you don’t have all the documents you need. I don’t have to go further on this one. Not easy doesn’t quite do it justice.
Then there is the early morning doctor’s appointment that you made six months ago and forgot all about. The alert in your calendar forgot, too. A quick phone call to cancel. Sorry you have to pay for the visit because you cancelled too late. It’s not easy because your back hurts and you need some meds.
Try to cut the TV cable and move into the world of streaming television. I’m serious about it and think I can do it, but I’m hesitant. I’ve talked with Comcast a couple of times and they are no help. And I don’t know a 7-year-old in the neighborhood who can help me. It’s not easy.
