Good Thing We Only Have Two Cars

Current mood: bearmood — angry frustrated
OMG, what a day from hell this was! I should've known things were going to go awry when I got in my car this morning and it started right up. I didn't get all the dough done yesterday because of lack of trays, so I had to go in today. I was done in plenty of time to get home and shower before we had to leave for tree cutting. I try to start the car and nothing...won't start at all. I think the starter went. After 15 minutes of calling his cell over and over and over, Marcus finally answered the phone and came and got me. So, my poor car is still sitting out in front of work and I have absolutely no idea how in the hell I'm going to get it home or even pay to get it fixed. Sad thing is, once again, this is not the original problem and even if I can get a starter, it'll still have issues.

We got down to Woodland Park about an hour later than planned and my head and eyes hurt because I bawled all the way. The last thing I was really in the mood to do at the moment was get a tree. Anway, Marcus' truck has been having some transmission problems. Today is the day they decide to totally jack up. When his truck gets warm, he loses 2nd and 3rd gears. We found out that he also can't put it into 4-wheel drive, either. Of course it was all snowy and icy at the cutting area. *sigh* So, we had to leave and and pack into Mike's jeep. Oh, well. Marcus found us a nice tree and hopefully I'll get it up tomorrow. Dad lent me his car for work tomorrow and maybe, just maybe, I'll get my car home. Regardless, I'll post pics of the adventure tomorrow.

Allright, it's been a long, stupid day. I'm going to bed.
