Super Mr.Fix-It-All-Or-Not.

honestly, i'm having the monday BLUES/BLACK whatever.
today hasn't been a good day BUT............... my father totally cracked me up until all the blues were chased away.


my dad being a superdad, loves to tinker with anything he finds not working.
from fridges to toilet bowls to washing machines. anything.
he just loves going on his rescue missions & starting on his pet projects - eg. PROJECT Toilet Bowl
(i suppose thats why both my mom and him love to shop at IKEA for new furniture.)
my mom loves to shop, period.
my dad loves the part that comes after the purchasing, getting it fixed up all on his own.
he spends hours alone in the room tinkering around with objects, taking them apart and putting 'em back together. like a kid right?

the bad part is?
it doesn't mean everything that's spoilt CAN BE FIXED by him.

and today is a super good example.

my dad was trying to fixed the van keys cuz now they're sorta spoilt and the doors have to be open manually which sorta infuriates him when its raining cuz he has to run under the rain to open the van instead of "tiu tiu" and its open.
so he tried fixing it right before he & my mom headed to town for lunch. for those not in the know, my dad has freaken strong hands. don't bother playing arm wrestling because forget it, you'll lose one lah.
he ended up breaking the KEY itself which means... they couldn't start the van with a broken key!! HAHAHA.
and, the auto part wasn't even fixed.
my mom's spare key has something wrong and doesn't really work.

so it ended up that they were inside the car with no means of locking it from outside.
and even if they lock it, they wouldn't be able to get back in.
AND, surprisingly, my dad managed to get the car to start with the faulty spare key but... either one of them is stuck in the car until a replacement key is found to LOCK it.

AHHAHAHAHAHAH.

which means... both my parents are trapped in the car.

WAH LAU... I LAUGH UNTIL I DIE CAN.

my mom is currently sending me a flurry of smses because she absolutely doesn't know whether to get pissed off with the dad or laugh about the matter.
my dad is trying to get a replacement key with Renault now i think whilst the key is in the ignition and because its faulty, they can't remove it just in case, it doesn't start again later.


GOODNESS, the spots they get themselves into.

fainted.
