Well my car self destructed today. I'm not entirely sure what is wrong but has to do with spark plugs, threads, taking the cap off....I think I am in the right direction there. I do, however, know that it will mostly likely cost over a thousand dollars to fix. Basically, it's not worth it.

Today was my boyfriend's birthday. I had plans to take him to a nice dinner, anywhere he wanted. He decided on The Brewhouse. We had a really nice early dinner, and then we go to leave, I turn on the car, and instead of a nice hum, the car makes more of a "#*^*&#^$*%&^%" sound. Yes that's right, that is a sound--a sound of death! Thankfully Nick was there with me, because I had not a parent within hundreds of miles. Nick had a triple A card and so he called and had someone come to our aide. She got there and she was an awesome lesbian with a reverse mullet. She was unable to fix it and asked if I wanted it towed somewhere. There just happened to be a mechanic in the same shopping center so we put it in manual and pushed it over.

We waited while they talked in their mechanic jargon. They told us what was wrong and it was just a bunch of greek. I called my dad and had Nick explain to him what was wrong because honestly, I had no idea. Finally they told me I wouldn't be able to get an estimate until morning. Nick and I called a bunch of people and finally found someone to come and get us. Ricky came to our rescue and dropped me at my concert and brought Nick home.

After talking to my father, we decided that it wasn't worth it to fix, especially since he had already offered to buy me a new car. We are going to the dealer on Thursday, and hopefully I will walk away with a new set of wheels (fingers crossed).

I hope I didn't spoil Nick's birthday too much. At least he has a decent story to tell about it.
