Going on a trip
Wish me luck. Going home to visit mom. First time I've left the girls since
Grant died. Soooo, is this good luck or bad? I was driving to get my oil changed today and my muffler fell off on the busiest street in town. I had no idea there was anything wrong until suddenly I kept hearing a noise. Then BANG! Totally dropped out and cars behind me had to avoid it. I guess better today than tomorrow, right? Now I am poorer but have a new muffler. I'm hoping that there is enough gas between here and there and back again. Whew. Hey, can you clean up the troll situation before I get back on Wednesday |

Wish me luck. Going home to visit mom. Have a nice LONG trip. Really long. Try to stay away as long as you can. In fact, when you get back, try to stay away from your computer for as long as you can. |

Driving down the road and all of a sudden there's a clunk and then scraping and sparks flying behind the car. The muffler had fallen off and was dragging behind the car because it was still attatched by some sort of rubber bracket. All these guys on motorbikes were pulling up alongside me and pointing to the back of my car. Uh, yeah, thanks, I hadn't noticed that! Have a good trip and a nice visit with your mom. -- Britta "There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast." -- Unknown Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album |
