How Dom Hit Rock Bottom

How did this happen? If you read my last blog entry you might come to the same conclusion that I have. The fame of this week had gotten to us, or ME i should say. I'd just heard our new single "Wash Away" for the 3rd time on the radio at Virgin's 95.3 fm and my mind started imagining the royalties pouring in. We're talking 3 or 4 digits, if of course you count the 2 digits behind the decimal point.
So i'm driving home last night at about 2:30 AM while listening to Motley Crue's 'Dr. Feelgood' on cassette. i'm feeling pretty good or rather I'm feeling REALLY good. It's the Crue's greatest album of all time and really there are no albums that consistently make me feel i should be wearing tighter pants. As i come around the last couple corners and pull into my driveway Vince Neil committing vehicular manslaughter couldn' be farther from my mind. Suddenly, the sensation of the van tilting forward as i come to a stop on our perfectly flat driveway make me realize that i've over shot the driveway.
In front of my driveway is my lawn, so I didn't do any massive damage or kill a lead singer from the 80's metal band, Hanoi Rocks but I had gotten myself and my van in a little bit of a predicament. It has been raining in Vancouver for weeks and my lawn is basically a muddy swimming pool. I attempt to back out but my attempts just dig me deeper into the mud. After 2 trials i figure that 2:30 in the morning probably isn't the best time to be squealing my tires. (sidenote: i don't know why i was comparing myself to the likes of Motley Crue, i can't even squeal my tires, so not rock'n'roll).
Walking away from the car i regain hope. Maybe if i drive forward enough on my lawn, i can then back all the way out and skip the ledge that is my driveway, the lawn will look like crap but at least i won't have the embarrassment of a van that is sinking into my lawn.
I restart the van and try.
Outcome: failure, after again squealing my tires i've now dug myself further into the dirt.
I go to sleep deciding not to think about it until the next morning. At 9 AM i wakeup look out the window and decide to go back to sleep and do something about it when i wake up later.
Eventually i call jim's towing and $55 later all is back to normal minus the massive tire holes in my lawn....I hope that doesn't come out of my damage deposit.
(Caring about damage deposit= -20 rock'n'roll points)
