What a Week!

I have been wanting to write, so many times.But recent events just kept me so busy.I also realised that to be able to write the mind should be calm.The past week, I have not had enough sleep and for the first time since i started driving,I was not able to change a flat tyre.On 22nd December on a cold night I was stranded without a car,my tyre went flat so i thought 'what the heck' i will just change it,but i was so wrong after Jacking the car and unscrewing the tyre,the tyre just refuse to come out the rims,i was pulling the Tyre as though my whole life depended on this one wheel.After an hour,alone at 8 degrees almost midnight,I gave up.
The next day,I called a guy to tell him that my car tyre was flat.Guess what the guy said:'You don't know how to change a tyre'!, I almost killed that guy!,after explaining to him in a rather harsh manner,he knew i meant business.So he came after 15 min,tried the same thing i did,how smart!.Then he picked a big hammer and smacked the hell out of the tyre!.Finally,after 48 hours and few unpleasant exchanges the tyre was replaced.I felt bad for that guy, but what the heck,i needed to get the job done.So, I thanked him and he drove off just waving at me.I'm sure he would have cursed me the whole night,because I kept coughing.
Since my wife and daughter have left for vacation, I have been spending a lot of my valuable time with my TV and DVD player.The other day i watched a movie called BORAT.I have been a fan of ALI G since the time of my University days. But this movie about BORAT ,who is from Khazakistan and is travelling to America for the first time.This movie is an insult to intelligence.Its funny,but in a stupid way!Its also disgusting at times.At the moment I'm half way through watching The Interpreter,so far so good.
What a Week!
