Good Morning...

So yesterday, I woke up in the best mood. I even straightend my hair, made a veggie shake, got out the window scraper, and scrapped the 4 inches of snow off the element...and then was ready to go. It was 9:10, I had class at 9:30. It takes me 4-6 min. to drive to school. So I was doing good. Then what to my horror occurred? My car was stuck in the gravel. IT wouldn't budge. I got out. I tried to move some gravel under the tires, to give a little traction. I tried to reverse again. Nothing. Then I went to the back tires to break up the ice, to give all 4 wheels a chance to show off their all wheel drive abiliites. Nothing. Then I tried some more things, each time reterning to the attmepts to get the car unstuck. NOTHING. So i started walking. It is a 2 mile walk. I knew that my 9:30 class, property would be going over the midterm answers, a class I didn't want to miss.

I walked in the snow.

In my sweater boots (half suede/half sweater)

I walked some more. And tried to look as pathetic as possible so someone would give me a ride. Nothing.

Then a miracle happend.

An Astro Van, Taxi drove by me.

Then turned around and drove me again.

It cost me $4.50 plus a .50 cent tip...but I got to school only 10 min. late.

My sweater boots were soaked, but I didn't miss the class.

Thank you Astro Van Taxi Miracle.


Then my good friend Chip helped me get unstuck, after classes with his big American Truck and tow rope...
