When it rains,it pours! I had gone to Safeway to procure lettuce and chicken and burger meat and a few diet cokes…sat in the car for a while talking to the sponsor. Key in ignition. No dice. Try key again. No action. OH NO! DANGER WILL ROBINSON–DANGER!
Surprisingly I stayed calm without Klonopin. Called the roadside assistance. Waited. Went into Safeway to use the potty. Called the Honda service people and said I was comin in. They had a shuttle which could take me home. I started freaking inside. I wasn’t freaking about the money, the stress, the car…I was freaking because how was I gonna get my diet coke and latte tomorrow and oh my god I think I’m running out of cigs.
Back into Safeway. Whew! Stock up on diet coke and buy some cigs. Ok, I’m good now.
Then a funny thing happened as my chicken and lettuce were nearing the point of needing refrigeration badly: this dude on a motorcycle rides up and says, “Ma’am did you need a jump?. I said are the jumper guy? He said, ya. I’m curious–where’s your truck? He said he does it with his bike. Ok, whatever…and he pulled out this little contraption and jumped my decrepid car battery and off I went.”
Straight to the drive thru to get my last diet coke.
MY routine everyday is to go to Starbucks - get latte. Go to Burger King — get diet coke. Go to Jack in the Box — get diet coke. Those are my staples. Those are my “must-do’s”. So, being with out a vehicle is a strange trip indeed.
By the way, three numbers: 3 7 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\
Oh ya, the car bill is 2200 smackers!
