the little red car that could.

I wouldn’t have known about it if I didn’t run out of tampons.

What’s black and white and red all over?

My new Vickie’s zebra panties.

Thanks mother nature. You have prime timing.

Anywho, since I needed to get supplies of the Playtex kind I ran to my little red car.

My clicker wouldn’t work.

Weird. I love my unlock door clicker.

So I went old school and opened the door via key in lock and hopped in. I put the key in the ignition and turned.

Nothing happened.

I tried again.

                Nothing happened.

I called my father, car problems are not in my job description as a student. My job is to go to class, get acceptable grades, and steal the peanut butter when I go home. Not play Dennis the fix it man.

My dad wouldn’t answer.

I called him seven times in a row before I gave up.

Then after much distress, it came to pass that the truth was brought to light by Robin, my car battery froze solid.

Later that day I found a man with some jumper cables and he jumped my car.

All was well.

I got my supplies and went on with my life.

The next day I go out to car to go for a drink and guess what?

My car didn’t start AGAIN!

So I called a real live man, named Shane, to come be a man and fix my car.

He came, he saw, he took the battery out of my car.

Ladies, let me tell you something about Shane. He was holding a car battery in one hand, and opened the car door for me with the other, don’t fret, he just had surgery on that shoulder too. He turned my seat heater on without asking. Shane is a gem. You should want to date Shane. Even if he sings country music a little loud and introduces me to “Reggie Country” music, he’s still one of my very good friends here.

We went to the auto store and they charged up my battery, then an hour later they called me and said that I needed a new one.

Shane took me back to the store and helped me pick out a new battery. The ‘Harsh Weather” one.

We came back to my sick little red car, put the new battery in. I offered to help several times, but Shane told me it was my job to hold the iPhone and look pretty.

He says my flashlight holding skills aren’t that great, I should just stick to looking pretty.

With the shiny new battery in place, I put the key in the ignition and turned.

Want to guess what happened next?

NOTHING!

I ran over to ask the other man if I could use his jumper cables again, just as I was about to acquire said cables Shane called me and told me to hurry back.

My little baby car was purring, looking so happy to be alive.

Shane forgot to take the cap off.

How was your week, friends?

Happy Wednesday!

Two weeks from tomorrow, I take my last final!

I move home two weeks from Friday!
