You know, when you wake Up even before the al- armgoesoff and you feel like taking on the world? The last one of those days I had was a total disaster. Il1ay there in bed th ink- ing ofali1 the great things I was going to do that day. Full of good intentions I jumpedright up and put my foot into the water p itcher I had 1lef ton the fl1oor from the bedtime snack the night before. 1lthought, 'What the heck!, that could happen to anybody. ' Undeterred by the poor start, 1 went downstairs, had a wash and a quick shave and prompt- ly sp ra y ed m y underarms with hair- spray. 0f course I didnIt realize the mistake until 1 got out to the kitchen ta cook breakfast and discovered rny arms were pinned to my sides. While 1 was getting free, the eggs cooked so hard they cl anked when 1 put them on the plate. About this point you begin to feel somebody is trying ta tell you something. Knowing what was hap- pening tome, 1ltried to anticipate troub- l e Sa that perhaps 1 could survive the rest of the day. Before 1 headed for the Free Press, I remembered to put out ail the garbage. After some scurrying around to gather up what looked like a bumper crop that week, and staggering out to the curb wi th the whole mess, I rernernbered that yesterday was garbage day. Blew it again! Now bear in mind that when 1 got Up, this was going to be a fabulous day. 1 was beginning to think that it would be a day I would have a hard time forget- ting. Now you think 1 arn going to tel1 you that when I went to leave, the truck wouldn't start. Nope. As a matter of fact 1 made it down to the paper in good time. 1 made it back home in even bet- ter tirne. .. to get the briefcase 1 forgot. Upon arriving at the paper for the second time, 1 was in no mood for any- thing else and as 1 walked in the door CHINESE FOOD CAL ITHE t$UliUGftT EVE Ut? somebody-yelled, 'Hi smiley!l Only the presence of females prevented me from replying with wvhat 1 thought wvould be the proper answver. ln the office 1 was greeted with the j oy f uI news that t hr ee of my readers were saving Lpsp 501 could take a trip. One way. And a sweet little old lady phoned in to say my colurnn is the fav- ouri1te ofher budg ie. 1 don 1t have to teI11 you how the budgie is able to seé my col umn. 1 flopped into a chair and said, t"Why doî1do it, why dol1 'try to be a w i ter?"I My editor remarked, I'eh why do you do it ?"I said, "For the money, what els e ?"IlTh e edi tor repl ied, "For the wages we pay you? 1 said, "lYoufre right. Why do I do it?"I But writing for a weekly paper is a very diverse job. Where el se would the writers have to tie paper bundles bef- ore they go out on the streets ? I can even get to change the bulb in the wash- room. 1 have a littîe pidgeon hole for notes, but nobody ever leaves me any. One time I Iooked in and found two cig- arette butts and a dead beet le. When 1Iask thepubl isher for my cheque he gives me a blank look and says, "Do you work here ? I say, "Sure 1Iwork here! How else would you see in the washroom at night?"I They were golng to gîve me the job of putting out thegarbage, butwithmy history of for- getting to get it out on the right day, I lost that promotion right off. They told me one time they were going to put in a special phone for me, but after 1 found out it was a pay phone I 1 ost my enthusiasm. When the mail cornes into the office everyday, ail I ever get is the junk mail and the oc- casional I etter for l'occupanlt". Anyway the next tirne I feel I arn going to have one of those "lgreat"I days I have deciaed to stay in bed. But the way things are going, rny electricblanketwould probablygeta short. Heck, I should be so lucky! 1 l'lprobably 1live to be thirty- *five and spend every day asking myself, "lis it realîy worth it?"I Heard's Taxi 668-3732 Radio Equipped & Direct .iUne I V1EW J/M OUA/I DINE F#LLV LECEE y S A S àA VER g i ~ 116 NIAS -Si.
