Up on the roof​ (continued)

Great, I’m going to be killed while staring at David Hasselhoff’s pecs, and I’m not even gay!

 “Please, at least wait for the end credits to run!” I cried. “I want to know who does such a lousy job on my makeup!”

I gritted my teeth.  His hands came closer, ever closer, so close I could hear them breathing, and hands don’t breathe!

But he didn’t lay a hand on me.

“Look, friend, I’ve been trying to get your attention for a few blocks now.   You left two coffee cups on your roof!  It’s amazing that they haven’t spilled.”

And he pulled two cups of coffee off the roof and handed them to me.

So that was it.  He was a good guy after all. So were the others, all trying to tell me I didn’t have a fiddler on the roof, but coffee on the roof.

Paul Bunyan was such a nice guy we stood there and drank the now cold coffee together.  Sorry I hadn’t left doughnuts on the roof for us too.

Sometimes I’m just clueless.  And sometimes I’m brain dead.

But from now on I’m going to keep the coffee in the car and not on the car. At least until the next time I don’t.
