Somehow, i one way or another, i managed to escape and i made my way to the exit and "yipeeeekayeeeeaaayyyyyyyyy, motherfucker,!!!!", i exclaimed as the traffic ahead came a halt and hindered my daring and heroic pusuit of the damsel in distress, who was wrapped up like worm in a cocoon, dangling over the cliff, that overlooked the scenic vista of the valley city and i must say, i couldn't really tell her beuaty because her face was obscured, but i could sense that she was quite a looker and felt my heart beat with excitement at the prospect of probably a quiet candlelight dinner with her in a cosy place, man, it would be lovely indeed, but that was merely a daydream if i couldn't find the cake in time (the bakery closes at 5 sharp), or else i would be doomed to domestic hell in the outer reaches of dull languid afternoons by an open window with a solitary mosquito buzzing around my blood rich ears, prompting me to get and sway my arms around in a-spactic grandeur, wavering and flailing like branches on a spin cycle wreck...
