So, as you all mostly know. I am a complete and utter hermit. I spend nearly every waking moment online (though not always on the computer), working on the projects I have going. So today the wife and the inlaws want to drive about an hour and a half to Uvalde Texas, to go swimming. Me, my wife, and my son drive ourselves seperate from them so we can leave early (they were staying the night, but I have work in the morning) So we leave, and are 35 Miles away from our city limits, when BAM. The tensioner on my car simply breaks, sending one of the belts spiraling, and the other one just coming off. Seemingly lucky we are in a small one horse town 35 miles away from our city. Sure enough we call to try to find a tow truck. There are two in the area. Both want a WHOPPING $150 to take our vehicle. As Most of my money is online in various accounts, and I only transfer money over when I need to pay bills, I had a total of $50 on me. Not knowing what to do, (and suffering from as I've told many before, chronic gastroenteris ulceritis) I nearly pass out from the instant stress its caused. Finally after breathing myself out of it, I called the police, who arrived within about 3 minutes of the call (VERY FAST). This was at around 6:45 pm. The police, call up the wreckers, and seeing my wife and son (wife is ballin her eyes out because she doesn't know what to do), they pay the other $100 for us through different city funds. So since the city only had 2 towing services, and both were on runs out of town, we waited 3 hours, with the VERY curteous police offericers, till one arrived. And just barely made it home.


Now tommorow is sunday, no ride to work (luckily I have a emergency room notice from 2 days ago that says I can miss till the 18th) have to get my car done..

over all.. worst...day..evar

Thank god for those officers though.

After an ordeal like that, you deserve a day off tomorrow.

Have a wonderful, safe, quiet Easter holiday with your family.
