Yes. I almost died. Again.
Its almost not that interesting when “I” almost die because it’s not uncommon. It’s not like its shcoking. I almost die, people go ‘OH GOD!’ then once they see I’m alive they go ‘AGAIN?’
“How’d you almost die this time Elon?”
Okay. First I should give you a tad bit of backstory.
Before I started comedy I used to hang out at a restuarant named ‘The Islands’(I still hang out there) but it was the beggining. It was new. One day they asked me to do some deliveries for them. I was like ‘Cool, whatevs’ That was right until I got on the bike they had. It had zero brakes people. I quickly found out that breaking was dependant on me screeching to a halt with my sneekers/shoes pressed against the ground. There was lots of laughter and everyone thought it was amusing.
Fast forward like 5 Years.
I was at the restuarant and I did a few deliveries for the restaurant. I realized the brand new bike was having the same problem. I bring up the fact that I almost died before, and they suggest that I get it fixed then. I say I’ll do it. I’ll just ride the bike home and take it back to the shop when i get up the next day.
I made it approximately 8 blocks.
Thats when I black out. Not because I had been drinking(not a drop, all dieting and shit) its because there was some sort of impact. I can’t say what I hit, or Hit me , but i know it hurt.
I dont think you understand how disturbing it is to be missing a portion of your life, and you didn’t even drink the alcohol to explain it. All of a sudden boom, i was no longer here then boom I was.
I wake up to a cop questioning me. Like asking me what happened. I don’t remember the questions. I remember being very very confused. The only thing I could think of at first was that my girlfriend wasn’t here. Id dont know why that was at tht top of my important list when I was almost killed, but it was incredibly important.
The Cop then bails.
Doesn’t call 911. Doesn’t call an ambulance. Nothing. Just bails. Everyone I know has been trying to figure out why the cop didnt do anything. Some say he’s racist, others just an asshole, but i swear to god, as I was typing this blog It came to me that maybe…maybe he hit me. That would explain why he was questioning me then bailed so fast. I couldn’t answer anything when he left. I was in a state of temporary amnesia.
Thank God the more I talked to myself the more I remembered. Eventually I remembered my best friends number and called him and then I remembered where I came from and called the restuarant.
Fahnon arrives, I think right after the breakdown, because believe me people you get hit, bleed everywhere, see your bike totalled and your g/f is out of town and you’ll have a mini breakdown yourself, and he takes me to the hospital. I wont say WHERE I went since I couldnt afford to go and went by an alias.
Times are hard folks.
Later I find that I have had ‘Major Head Truama’ various fractures to the face and possible bleeding in the brain. Twas not a fun evening.
I’d try to tell the interesting part about the hospital and shit but my head is hurting. I need to laydown. Happens when your face is CRACKED!

[…] I’m pretty sure upon her return I’ll be reduced to a series of grunts and moans, because she’s what keeps me social (and please note: I’m far from social) But now theres no one to ask me about my day or to force me to ask about theirs. I’m just left in an apartment to fend for myself. When she went to china I almost DIED! […]
