Car Troubles
Thursday, March 01, 2007
I love how I can have a perfectly good night at work and then the drive home is SHEER HELL.

Now, I knew that the snow storm was coming tonight but I had to work! And considering we weren't supposed to get THAT much snow I figured that it would be okay. And it was okay for a little bit. But suddenly the snow was coming right at my car. I'm driving and I'm dizzy from the snow because I can't even figure out where I'm going. I didn't know where I was, where on the road I was.... it was hard to even tell if I was moving forward! And the SUVs were not any help. They come right up on your ass and act like they have every right to bully everyone around. It's BULLSHIT.

So the drive was bad enough. I finally get back into town and I'm thinking, "I'm home free!" I get to be RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER from home when my car stops running. I truly thought at first that the traction on my car was having issues and it was no problem. I barely even got to the side of the road.

Now I don't know what's wrong. It didn't run out of gas, it wasn't the battery and it's not the alternator. The boys (who were nice enough to come and help me) think it's the fuel filter. Frankly, I don't care. I am so tired of all the crap that happens with my car! If it's not the fuel filter it's the battery, if it's not the battery it's the brakes.... I'm just tired of it. It's got me so stressed out. This weather and my car have me SO STRESSED OUT.

I don't mean to complain so much. I just feel like every time I think life is good something bad happens. And I know other people have it worse than me but I just want things to be okay for once. Grr.

A few thank you's:

Dustin, thank you for coming to get me and dealing with me when I was super upset and taking it out on you.
Shawn, thanks for helping to push my car and continually helping me with my car drama.
Nina, thanks for being concerned and for chatting with me on the phone.
Rich, thanks for calling to check and make sure I'm okay.

Thanks all.

About

I'm just a girl trying to find my place in the world. I don't claim to be perfect and I don't expect anyone in my life to try to be that way either. I try to keep only good, positive and trustworthy people around me. I've been burned in the past but right now I feel like things are pretty good. I'm in the middle of re-applying to school, I work full time at Caribou Coffee and in between I just want to have fun. I am only 23, after all, and I want to live it up. Like what you see? Feel free to read more.
