amazing stupidity

what i experienced today was experienced by my cousin a few months back..

i was in need to go to the loo after a streak of journey to the banks, on my way to do my long awaited retail therapy. drove to the nearest petrol station, went into the toilet, happily relieving my bladder and ploop ! my car key went into the hole.. yeap, into the toilet, the hole in the ground.. without pause the first word came out from my mouth was "shit ! shit !" and scream my cousin's name.. her series just got contagious...!

also without thinking i put my fingers into the hole, took the key, wash both my hand and key at the sink and out of the toilet.. of course with wet key the remote didn't work. unlock the car using the key then yeah.. it kicked the alarm..

didn't really care about the alarm and everyone was looking at me, i did the most important thing first - washed my hand again with soap, wet tissues, hand wash and perfume.. luckily i got a bottle of water in the car and i use all 1.5litres washing my hand and the key (owh, and i just realized that the bottle of water was air zam-zam that mom gave me a few months back).. heheheheh, at least i know now that my hand and key are really holy clean.. ;-)

after that i start dialing darling's no, told him what happen, ask him how to switch off the alarm and he ask me to do something that made me just hang up the call - read the manual..

tried calling my friend, the previous owner of the car but no to avail..

ok, read the manual seems to be my only choice..

stupid manual didn't say anything about any switch.. i know there should be a button, just couldn't find it.. the only thing that the manual says is to press the unlock button at the remote.. idiot ! the remote is not working la..

ok, think.. was sitting in the car with the alarm still deafening my ears, with 3 patrol cars parked just beside me (but of course the 6 uniformed so-called pdrm officers didn't offer any help, so much of cepat, mesra & betul.. what rubbish !), i started unscrewing the remote, dissemble it and start blowing and wiping the water marks..

thank god it worked !! am so proud of my d.i.y. solution, and off to shopping ;-)

yeehaaa... lesson learnt...

c'est la vie !
