What the hell is going to happen next.....

My car began making a noise... Not a happy pleasant noise... A loud banging scraping klanking noise...

So I made it home the other evening and this morning got it to the auto repair place that I go to...

They said it was a miracle that the wheel on the drivers side had not yet fallen off.

All in all the total bill came to a healthy $464.70

CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish it could stop... One more and I am getting off the train...



Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...

You know, I'd prefer to have you alive even if the car bled you dry

It happens all the time with cars. One has to accept the likelihood that something will go wrong and that it will cost a lot of money.

One of my car's wheels locked up once and I there was no option but to destroy the tyre dragging it over the tarmac to get it out of the car park it broke down in (the transporter wouldn't fit). I lost my faith in French engineering after that.

Yeah.... I know cars break down. It is just that I was hoping it wouldn't mess up until August.
