i will survive

i have survived a very trying ordeal. i was trapped in an elevator yesterday. not only that, but it was not with harry connick, jr. nor did a hot fireman rescue me. but i pulled through. i shoulda sung 'i will survive.' if in doubt, if a girls's alone and distraught she should belt out an aretha song.

sorry, hon, but 'i will survive' wasn't aretha. but yes, either that song or any song by aretha should be belted out by women in crisis, and often.
p.s. glad you are no longer in the elevator
p.p.s. sad that you didn't wait to be rescued

I need more information! Why were you trapped? Where did this happen? Were you alone? No Harry, but any other cute guys? How did you pass the time? Did you have a good book along? Did you knit? And most importantly.. how did you get out?

the story's not nearly as fun if you know the details. that's why i left it.
i was taking the food carts at work upstairs and the elevator stopped i think near 2nd floor (where i was headed). so i sat there and pushed 2,2,2,2,2, then door open, door open, door open. and nothing happened. so i considered panicking, but then thought to push 1,1,1,1,1. and then it went back down and let me out. (i then took the stairs and pushed the button upstairs to make the elevator come up with the food.) it was maybe 2 minutes.
see? not nearly as exciting. i prefer the 'i got stuck in an elevator' version.
