carkit

 

When I woke up this morning I made Ramon‘s breakfast, his coffee to go, and lunch, like every other morning. Gave him a kiss, told him I loved him, and waved him goodbye, like every other morning. But what wasn’t like every morning, was the call I got only 5 minutes after Ramon had left. It was Ramon, or better yet, Ramon’s car that called me. At least, that’s what Ramon told me. He just was listening to the radio, when out of the blue, the car kit started dialing my number.

Well, whaddayaknow, I’m actually being missed by a car, and not just any car. Ramon’s car.

I just got a little slingshot back in time. I almost wished I answered the phone with, ‘Dr Bonnie Barstow here, what can I do for you Michael? Is KITT okay?’

Ohh, how I swooned when I was just a wee lass, watching The Knight Rider. And now, many, many years later, I got a call from the car-KITT!

My morning couldn’t start any better than this. Too bad Ramon had to spoil my special moment when he started laughing, and blamed it on condensation in the touchscreen of the carkit. ‘Really, I will have to do something about it! I’m glad it was your number this time. It will call random people from my contact list.’

Hmmm, well, thank you very much. Goodbye lovely fantasy moment.

At least he was glad it was me, and we chatted all the way untill he reached his destination. So it was still a happy monday morning.
