小屁孩日记

星期天Sunday

这就意味着救曼尼的方法只剩一种了，就是从与波波池相接的螺旋塑料滑梯逆行而上。我本来就有点幽闭恐惧症，所以实在不情愿爬这玩意儿。That meant the only way I could get to Manny was to climb up the spiral plastic slide that empties into the ball pit.I am not a fan of dark,enclosed spaces to begin with,so I wasn’t looking forward to crawling up that thing.

我从管底往上喊话以确保管道通畅，但这帮孩子完全无视我，直接往下滑。I yelled into the bottom to make sure the coast was clear,but kids ignored me and came sliding down anyway.

挤过这轮塞车之后，我一路爬到顶，开始在管道迷宫里完美匍匐着寻找曼尼。这里面没有排气孔，充满臭袜子的味儿。Once I made it past the traffic jam and got all the way to the top,I started crawling around through the maze of tubes to try and find Manny.There was no ventilation up there,and it reeked of dirty socks.

我发现让我来搜救曼尼那是找错人了，因为我向来对迷宫没辙。老妈和我今年秋天去了一次雷诺农庄的玉米田迷宫，老妈本来是指望我来找到出口的。I realized I was the wrong person to go looking for Manny,though,because I’ve always been bad at mazes.This fall me and Mom went in the corn maze at Reynold’s Farm,and Mom was counting on me tofind the way out.

结果却被我给带迷路了，老妈只好打911报警电话请来救兵。But I got us so lost that Mom had to call911 for someone to come rescue us.

这次我就没有老妈的手机可以用来求救了。有个小孩在管道一头吐了，结果孩子们一路冲到我这边向滑梯狂奔。This time I didn’s have Mom’s cell phone to bail me out.And when some kids threw up at one end of the tunnel,all the other kids came rushing my way to get to the slide.

最后，我在其中一条管道里找到了曼尼，不过我自己也快崩溃了，不得不由一个服务员爬上来把我和曼尼带下去。Eventually,I found Manny in one of the tunnels,but by then I was ready to crack up.So one of the waiters had to climb up and rescue Manny and me.

最悲剧的是我不得不丢掉那条我最喜欢的牛仔裤，因为我怎么洗都洗不掉那股臭脚丫味儿，用漂白粉漂了三次都不行。The worst part of the whole experience was that I had to throw out my favorite pair of jeans because I couldn’t get rid of the smell of feet,even after washing them with bleach three times.
