A musing or too much?

Jack's brush with death
Category: You Don't Know Jack

His cat, Mr. Whiskers, slowly circled the large bottle of pills which stood on the kitchen table. “Surely this time I’ll be successful,” Jack muttered to himself in a barely audible voice.

To be fair, it’s not that Jack lacked either the courage or the follow-through to kill himself. It’s just that, like everything else in his life, Jack was simply no good at pulling together the essential details of a plan. This would be his third and final attempt to off himself. Jack had already decided that if he were to fail again, his punishment would be life.

His first attempt at suicide was a miserable failure. In a fit of depression over Kate, the object of a 7 year lusting and a woman who had made the mistake of displaying a small amount of interest in Jack albeit as friends, Jack had made the decision to end his own life.

Jack sat in the garage with the engine running and a long tube connecting the tailpipe to the interior cabin. For three hours Jack sat in that car. It wasn’t until the clock clicked into hour number four that Jack gave up and turned off the car. His Prius just wouldn’t cooperate.

Attempt two was, in a manner of speaking, more successful in that it caused both bodily harm and a great deal of fear. He learned the hard way that the “gun” his nephew owned was, in fact, a paint gun complete with red “bullets.” Jack took a deep breath, pulled the trigger, and waited for death. He knew that the shot was a direct hit when he saw the red blood splatter against the wall. Still alive, Jack reached to touch the wound. His ghoulish mind though that it might be fun to stick his finger into the fresh hole. Though, probe as he might, he just couldn’t find the wound. Eventually Jack learned the error of his ways, wiped the paint from his head and went to work. He was comforted by the fact that he would at least see Kate there.

“This time was different though,” Jack thought. Mr. Whiskers was less convinced that Vitamin C would be deadly….

(If you thought that this post was interesting, why not read another? Perhaps a random link? Or you could just read about me.)

I liked this one. The prius comment made me laugh especially (i wanted to comment that i laughed out loud but both that and LOL seem overplayed.)
