Average Joe: Average Day

Joseph spun around in his chair staring at the ceiling wondering when this day would end. He hated speaking to people from other countries about ‘how to use the satellite’ but what he hated more was speaking to someone who didn’t know damn English.
He kept spinning, until his big shot boss came around and caught him but he didn’t say anything to him, he just gave him a ‘I know what your doing and you better stop’ kinda glare. His boss was a boss who tried too hard, he tried to be cool, though he rocked a comb over and usually on lunch break when the boss wasn’t around, the staff would poke fun at him and how ‘trying’ he was.

From across the room, Joe could hear a Radiohead song “Paranoid Android” on someone else's computer. He always wondered what was with people and the fascination with Radiohead or perhaps Thom Yorke. He would hear from people ‘how smart Thom was as a musician’ and yet the Radiohead music always seemed to fail in his books. What he also didn’t understand was how a mother could name her son Thom and not Tom, I mean was that saying Thom Yorkes mom couldn’t spell or she just had a lisp and she didn’t wanna embarrass him when she could call him ‘Tom’, whether it was Thoms misspelled name, Radioheads boring music or the guy with huge glasses listening to it, Joe just didn’t wanna hear it today.

So breaking the average day outline, he decided he would do something spontaneous and leave without telling anyone so he walked out of the building and jumped in his car and drove and drove to any destination. As he was driving, the weather started turning for the worst and started raining, which he would then question why there was rain and/or how people in the UK or Seattle or Finland or Vancouver could handle such a problem. The rain fell and his thoughts ran but up ahead a girl was waiting for a drive, she was hitchhiking and Joe was the man to pick her up.

She thanked him for picking her up in the rain and he said “your welcome”, she said
her name was Lilly and he introduced himself and mentioned she had pretty eyes, she blushed and said something like “oh well jeez thanks” and also she mentioned was feeling a tad hungry, he brushed it and didn't think anything of it. Silence fell in on the car as if someone just hit the mute button, which then led to her asking if she can bite him, he said “what do you mean bite me?” and that’s when Lilly bit him, with the blood poring out of his neck, the car drove off the Cliff and into the woods with Thom Yorke singing “We suck young blood”.
