the ridiculous escapades of a local, queens astronomer

so last night, i was in bed at a sensible 10/10:30PM. i figured i’d be up early at some point, because of how unusually early i fell asleep. the cat woke me up coughing up a hairball at 3:30AM, so i cleaned it all up, peed and went back into bed. as soon as i laid back down, i realized that i wasn’t sleepy. i decided to check instagram and saw my friends posting stuff about the “blood moon” lunar eclipse. remembering that i was interested in it, i decided to take a gander out of my windows. there was nothing in sight from the front or the back of my apartment, so i decided to just round my street corner for a potentially better view… i picked up my keys and i separated what i thought was my keys from the clip, which are annoyingly noisy from having cute things connected to a mountain climber clip thingie. without double checking what i put in my pocket, i took my phone and rounded the corner outside.
as soon as i hit the corner, i knew i didn’t grab my keys, i just knew it. so i pulled out what i had in my pocket, and it was definitely not my keys. indeed it was only my stop and shop coupon card, and my lucky new york rangers hockey puck key chain. 🙁
so there i was, at 3:30AM on my stoop attempting to call my ex (mike) who has the 2nd set of keys to the apartment to no avail. he is usually up til the weeeeeee hours of the morning working on music production – but this time, he was sleeping. funny enough, he said he was lucid or sleep paralysis dreaming about me. i wonder if he looked at his phone and saw my name or something. anyways, since he didn’t pick up – i called one of my dude bff’s steve. thank god he picked up the phone… he scooped me and i slept at his place until i got in contact with mike, who let me into my place at around 1230PM… i didn’t get to work until about 2:30, sigh.
i’m such an idiot.
