im the perfect dog sitter

so a few days ago i was asked to watch a family friends dog while they were away. im not up to much thus far in the summer so of course i was up for the task. especially since i currently am without room and bed at my house, i was able to get the chance to have a bed again at the dog's house.

so first day starts off without a hitch. we bonded. i to ok him out. i feed him. then came night and i gathered all my belongings of entertainment to bring over with me for the night. they had a few things for me to do while i was there and one was to take the trash out to the curb to be picked up the next day. so at this time i had a few convos going on the facebook and luckily i was also texting someone at the time so i left my chats with hopes to return and took my phone with me while i took the cans out. i went into the garage through a door in the house. while in there i could not find the button to raise the garage door ( we currently had a garage door opener installed so now i assume that everyone has one) but i couldnt find the button to i thought to myself maybe it is just inside the door that leads to the garage to i went to open it.

locked.

instant panic. because at that time i didnt even know how to open the garage door either. my phone was moments away from death. i searched for a little bit longer and still couldnt find a button. i called the girl who lived there and it went straight to voice mail. dang it. next on the list call a friend that doesnt even live here and knowing he couldnt do anything even though my phone had one bar left but i was bewildered and my mind was not working and i didnt know what to do. i was locked inside of a garage.

come to find out that the garage door is not electric and i can just open it. so atleast i am out of the garage now.

so i take the cans to the curb.

i guess it is time to call my mom now. she gets ahold of the mom of the house and there is no spare key so we have to drive out to the grandparents house in the morning so we can get back and feed the dog.

so as im talking to my mom and she is telling me this, i decide i will close the garage. i have one hand holding my phone and pulling down the garage with the other. well i couldnt pull it all the way down just with the one hand so dumb me grab inthe crease that bends as it is being pulled and pull down. then the screaming starts. i cant think what to do cause my other hand is occupied and i cant pull my fingers out the crease and they are being squished to death. so i hang up the phone only to release my fingers just in time. any longer im sure they would of just fallen off.

but there i... phone almost dead, charger locked in the house with all my stuff and the dog, me shoeless in my pajamas sitting in the driveway...fingers hurting.
