car troubles

so i know that it's been a while since i've blogged. i have it written in my planner than i need to catch up. but i'll still need to blog later about the last 2 months.

so this morning i woke up late. i was supposed to wake up at 545am to leave at 615a, but woke up at 615a. i get dressed and eat breakfast, wash my face and such. i get out the door and my car won't start. SHIT!!!! i have 88 miles left in my tank and the gas light has NOT come on yet. but i park backwards on a slant. crap crap crap. i should have known better, but this hasn't happened in a while. great!!! so i go inside and ask melody if i can use her car to get some gas.

i drop her off and head to the citi gas. no gas cans. i go to the shell. no gas cans. i go to hess, which is crazy busy because it has the cheapest gas on hwy 25 and no gas cans. he recommends ingles. ok. i go to ingles and get the only gas can, thank goodness. and since i was there i got some pretzels, and finally found the reduced fat cheez-its, and some bananas. i go back to hess and fill melody's tank with 2 dollars and fill the 2 gallon gas can. i get home and some has spilled a little. not crazy, but just enough to make the back of her trunk smell of fumes.

i put the gas in my tank and still nothing. so i go inside and look up the number to pardee pharmacy and call and tell kerri that i can't come in today. i then call steve to see if he can come by the house tonight after my meeting to help with the car. he said sure. then i'm getting ready to leave because i don't want to be there when merry maids gets there. steve calls back and says he might be able to help after work because he is getting out early. i tried to text melody to ask if i could use her car, but no word yet.

i can't miss my dentist appointment... so i've walked to the mahec library to get some work done. we'll see how far i get :)
