Perks

The best thing about working at a limo company at Rose Bowl time is the availability of the drivers and the ability to drink in the limo. On the way to take Jeanne to work (405 northbound) I noticed a smell that was very similar to maple syrup. I asked, "Do you smell that? It smells like maple syrup."

"Maybe there was a maple syrup plant explosion," she said, jokingly.

Then we took the National exit and the hood started smoking. It was our car. I immediately looked at the temperature guage and it was neutral. I pulled into the Ross' parking lot and popped the hood. The radiator intact and everything else, so it was the coolant hose that came off and the steam was it on the hot engine. I'm drunk now, so I'll tell more later. We got a cab to Jeanne's work, compliments of Jeanne's work. I called Tony who was supposed to be dropping off his clients in Beverly Hills about that time. He dropped them off and picked me up and moved my car to a safe zone (more on that when sober). So I jumped in the back of the Hummer stretch and found wine left by passengers and whiskey and vodka and a long ride home. I polished off the wine and had three glasses of whiskey and have one left from before I left the Hummer. Awesome.

I need to go.
