(no title)
What happened last night was my first thoughts as I woke up having no clue where I was or who the two girls sleeping with me were. I quickly looked for my pants and shoes and got out of there as one of the?” girls said, “bye, Dave.” I thought for a second before I closed the door, “my name is Alex”. The last thing I remember is watching free movies online and so clearly something crazy had to have happened so, I swept through my pockets to see if there was any indication of my night last night and I found a couple of business cards. One was from Auto Insurance California so; I figured that would be a good place to get started. I grabbed a taxi over to the insurance place and when I got there, it was not only an insurance place but, a car rental and repair shop as well. I walked up to the door and a big hairy guy walked out and started screaming at me and asking me what had I done with his Maserati. I looked horrified as I have no clue as to what he is talking about and about 30 seconds later a crumpled Maserati is being pulled into the shop by a wrecker. I instantly vomited everywhere and in my vomit was a wedding ring? Wow, what kind of night did I have? The guy at the insurance place said, that he would charge my credit card for the repairs and said that a fiberglass repair kit was going to be needed. He brought a piece of paper that required my signature however; the name attached was my boss James Camera. My heart sank as it looked like I rented this car on the company account but, this guy looked like he could kick my butt so, I just signed and figured I would have a better shot of survival with the Brighton SEO owner.
I hoped in the cab and realized that I had a hospital band on my arm so; I figured well at least the hospital would know what happened. I figured I was sent there after I mangled the Maserati. When I spoke to the doctor he said I was there for mouth ulcers not a car accident. Apparently, when I swallowed the wedding ring I scratched the inside of my mouth that is created a nasty ulcer that needed to be drained and that they sent me on my way.
Well the trip to the hospital was less than helpful in finding out what happened and then all the sudden a felt this vibration on my leg. Yes! I still had my iphone, I started going through all my texts but, there was nothing informative there so, I began to look through my e-mails. There was the normal junk mail like the free credit score e-mails, the coupon e-mails and then I saw an invitation to a huge meadowland show. I certainly did not have enough money to take the cab up there so I needed to come up with another plan. I had a few dollars left so I headed to the bus stop. The ride up there cost more than what I had but, I ended up charming the driver into letting me pay him when we got to the stop. That was certainly going to be interesting as I had no one there and no money.
On the bus, there were some interesting people that I talked to that told me all about this meadowland show and what was going to be there. They told me that there were a lot of trade show booths and that this was the last day of the show. The guy next to me looked as in good of shape as me said; that it was a bunch of different pharmaceutical companies that had tested their drugs on people and that today was the follow-up day. I wondered was this something that I participated in. I didn’t remember anything and that would definitely make sense.
Once we got there I quietly slipped off the bus without notice and a bunch of doctors greeted us at the door. One of them came right up to me and called me by my name. I was relieved and scared at the same time. He brought me into a hospital type room and asked me how the last 48 hours were. I told him how I couldn’t remember anything but, that I did find some things out that were unpleasant to say the least. He asked me to lie back on the table as he took out a contact from my eye. That really confused me as I don’t wear contacts. He put it in a case and then into a computer. It was a movie of everything that I had done over the last 48 hours. It was crazy because, I would never do those things; the doctor told me that I signed up for a test that allowed them to control me from this contact for 48 hours and that while it was me, it was really them. He told me he couldn’t tell me anything else and that I could collect my Scottish Gifts on the way out. It was a gift basket filled with scones and junk. They told me to take this pill when I got home and everything would be better in the morning. I took the pill when I got home and everything seemed to be back to normal but, now I don’t know it that was a dream or if that was really a test that I signed up for. I guess I will never know for sure.
