Day: 114
Location: The wilds of Carguy!'s remote exotic car compound.
'The day started off much like the previous 113 days have started...breathing exhaust fumes, eating a stale peanut butter and jelly sandwhich, and dodging a pesky squirrel that has haunted my very existence since the beginning of this odyssey. One of these days the antics of that damn squirrel is going to bring this situation to a head, and one of us might not leave this garage alive.
The location of my dark green Coleman sleeping bag, wireless Dell laptop, and pony keg of Coors Light, have yet to be found by Carguy!. Although the jig was almost up a couple of days ago when I was awoke from my slumber by the roar of something unexpected.....a Porsche Carrera GT!! Previosly I had been camped out underneath a tool box waiting to get my paws on the Lotus, but now....oh my friends....everything has changed. Oh yes....it has changed. As I wiped the sleepiness from my bloodshot eyes I squinted to focus on the swooping shape that now lay only meters from me. Initially I was drawn to it, much like a gnat is drawn to the gentle warm light of a bug zapper. I unknowingly began to exit my sleeping bag when....ZAPP!! I accidentally zinged myself on the 220 line that I had installed for an ultra-high speed power connection for my prototype computer server. OUCH!! Damn that hurt!! Luckily it zapped me back into my senses as I almost revealed my ingenious cover. The quick zap of 220, though frying some much needed brain cells, woke me enough to see that Carguy! was still in the Carrera GT!! WHOOPS!! He would have seen me for sure. That was close. I need to be more careful for sure.
Though my vision was now even more murky than before, and that 220 line gave my big toe on my right foot an involuntary twitch, I could still almost focus on the huge brakes, carbon fiber front splitter, and glossy silver paint. This car is beautiful!! I wondered to myself, 'Man...when is Carguy! going to get out of that car so I can get a closer look?? He seems to have camped out in it'. Just then I heard a 'click' and the door swung open....and Carguy! got out of the car. I thought to myself, 'Here we go...I can finally get a close look at the car...maybe even sit in it,' when the unthinkable happened. Carguy! went around to the other side of the car and got HIS OWN sleeping bag and pillow!! He went back around and tucked himself back into the Carrera GT, sleeping bag, pillow, and all....evidently HE is sleeping in the car now. He must know something is up in the garage....did he hear the crackle of my Dorito's yesterday?? DAMN!! I knew those things were too loud!! Next time I will just stick to fruit snacks. Evidently it is going to be a test of wills....who can sleep in the garage the longest?? Well...I have the upper hand....he does not know I am here.....maybe I will use my powers of stealth and creep closer to the car for a better view.....we will see what happens....on Day 115.'
