so i've been having a good week until LAST NIGHT... It started snowing around noon yesterday but i was too busy at work to leave and because they said we were only going to get 1-2 inches... dumbass weather men and women NO we got POUNDED with 8-12 inches of snow... idiots... anyways i left work at 5 pm... traffic was crawling so i wasnt too nervous well after about an hour of sitting in traffic i was on 275... moving at a rate of MAYBE 5mph and thats pushing it and my car just SHUTS OFF... yes it just SHUT OFF luckily i was able to steer it off the side of the road so i wouldnt be blocking traffic and i thats when i started to freak... i started shaking uncontrollable, crying, hyperventalating, and everything else... GOSH! so i called tara and she calmed me down... with a lot of "STOP CRYING I CANT UNDERSTAND YOU" haha she says to me alot... but anyways i calmed down and told her i was stranded and my car wouldnt start so she started with this...
Tara: do you have gas
Me: yes its full just filled it up last night
Tara: did it over heat
Me: no temperature gauge was on cool and the radiator new
Tara: will it turn over when you try to start it
Me: yes but wont start...
so she said to call bonnie and see if her brother with the durango could come get me and call my boss and see if he could come get me and if not then her and derrick would come and get me in his truck...
SO...
i called bonnie... her house first... no one answered... her cell... it has no minutes.... i started crying again... calmed my self down and called greg... he was funny the conversation kinda went like this
Greg: do you have gas
Me: yes i filled it up last night
Greg: did it over heat
Me: no the temperature gauge was in cool and the radiator is new
Greg: your car is a piece of shit
Me: thanks are you going to come and get me or not
Greg: yeah i will
haha so he came to pick me up only took him a half hour to get to me but it took us another half hour or so to get to my apartment... thanks greg owe you.... baked you cookies... lol
so while i'm waiting for greg i called my dad... conversation went like this
Dad: what happened
Me: the car just SHUT OFF
Dad: do you have gas
Me: yes i filled it up last night
Dad: did it over heat
Me: no dad YOU replaced the radiator... the temperature wasnt even hot
Dad: are you safe...
Me: thanks for asking me NOW if i'm safe....
ok it really didnt go like that but its kinda how i remember it ... anyways the point is that EVERYONE i talked to asked me the SAME questions haha so the next few people i called... bonnie lauri gammy i just blurted out the answers before they could ask... kinda sounded like this
Me: ok i'm stuck on the side of the road my car just shut off while i was drive i made it to the shoulder i'm not blocking traffic yes i have gas no it didnt overheat the temperature gauge was on cool and the radiator is new yes i'm ok a little cold but ok and greg is on his way to pick me up... (breathing heavy from saying it all in one breath)
so then they understood the whole situation and knew i just wanted to talk to someone
so anyways 30 mins later greg pulls up i walk in 42" of snow (exageration) and get in his truck he takes me home as soon as i get home i strip down from all my wet clothes (whistles not needed here) and get into warm clothes climb on to the couch under my afgan that my g-ma moore made me and snuggle with my cat...
THEN!!!! i had to call all 42 people back that i called while sitting in my car to let them know i was home safe.. THEN i made chocolate chip cookies... which were amazing... then i watched some quality TV (NCIS The Mentalist & Without a Trace)
THEN i went to bed
Whew... my story is done... but this is my life story once it all starts going good something bad HAS to happen to mess it all up... thank you who ever is pulling the strings of my life for doing that.... its going to make a GREAT book someday!
OH! and i'm going to take pictures when we go get it towed so i'll post them here K? K!
Hey... where is the ice cream. I mean i know you were cold and stuff... but its ice cream!... I guess chocolate chip cookies are ok... where are mine?
