The dog gets loose the second the thunder hits, and the people who'd normally drop everything to find it have contract work that only happens when the sun's out. That's the kind of split-second call this conversation is built around: go looking, or go to work, and live with whichever one you pick.

 

Then there's the fix that isn't a fix. An elevator gets repaired, someone gets trapped in it two days later, and a future mother-in-law hands down a lifetime ban on ever stepping foot in it again. The board game Life gets a rebuild too, with hurdles that actually match now: a raise that costs money after tax, a rental wiped out by wildfire smoke, a luxury tax on the car finally earned.

 

Topics: when life happens, unexpected moments, dumb luck, elevator saga, game of life
