So I'm driving down the road. I just finished up with a client and I need to get gas before I go home. I decide to multi-task. I can do this, I do it all the time. Drive and talk on the cell. I need to check with another client about an issue she had the day before. No big deal. So I'm talking on the cell, I'm driving, no problem. Well, now I'm at the gas station. Still talking on the cell. Okay, so I can sit here and talk... or... I can get out and pump gas while I'm talking on the cell. Sure, I can do this. If there were cameras rolling, someone is going to make a bundle...
First, I pick up the handle, but the line from the handle to the top of the gas pump is twisted, so I spin around and I'm tangled in the line. So I spin a little more to get free from the line. Still talking on the cell. No problem. I let the pump rob me for a while. Full. Still on the cell. Okay, now all I have to do is put the handle back up. Hahahahaha! All I can remember is the line going around my head and spinning me again. Suffice it to say, the pump ended up on the ground with a loud "THUNK", wrapped around my leg. I didn't even look around. I just stepped out, picked it up, put it away, got in my car, and drove away.
Look for me on "America's Funniest Gas Station Videos".

Very cute, atleast you didn't get that self-righteous-ultra-confrontational-know-it-all-lady that I somehow seem to find everytime I talk on the phone while pumping gas. She is extremely convinced that you will blow up the gas station if you talk on the phone while pumping gas and would you please hang up because she has a baby in the car... no I am not kidding.
