night one

I moved into my new place a couple of weeks ago. It was about 11:45 pm and I was just about finished unpacking for the night. I went into my bathroom and shut the door. Five seconds later I went to open the door and that is when I realized that the bathroom door knob was stuck and I was locked in my bathroom. I was on the phone with one of my friends as I tried to get the door open. I worked with the door handle for a couple of minutes and then I started freaking out. I tried everything that I could think of to get out...I even took the door off its hinges. But nothing was working. I started freaking out, but luckily I had betsy on the line to help calm me down. By this point I had been stuck in my bathroom for about 15 minutes. I got off the phone with betsy and called my new roommate hoping that she had a key and could come and get me out. She answered and told me that she was on her way. As soon as I hung up the phone, I tried the door again and it miraculously opened. I couldn't have been happier. Five minutes later my new roommate showed up and I had to explain how I got out. It was not a pleasant experience to say the least. I told my landlord and the problem door knob has been fixed. But it was quite an ordeal and I can't think of anything more welcoming than being trapped...At least I made it out of there after only being stuck for 20 minutes.
