So I was getting ready to head to a baseball game on Friday when, all of a sudden, my car wouldn't start. I had loaned my jumper cables to a co-worker a couple of years back (he still has them BTW) and there was no one else around to help me out. So I had to call the service department of the local Dodge dealer and they brought out a tow truck to take my car to the shop. I was hoping to get it back before closing time on Friday but they told me I would probably get it on Saturday.
So I call back on Saturday to see if it's ready and, wouldn't you know, they haven't looked at it yet, so it'll probably be on Monday before I can get it. (hopefully).:mad:
I was able to get a ride to work today and I'm sitting here at my office typing this as I speak, still without a car. Also, the person giving me the lift was gracious enough to let me borrow her car so I could go get something to eat later today. But it still is the succ being without a car for the entire weekend.

All that because you didn't have a pair of jumper cables?:confused:
