It’s only Tuesday and it’s already been quite a week – starting off with a bang on Sunday when my car decided to break down while the boyfriend and I were on the freeway. There we were, driving along all nice and happy when I noticed the check engine light had come on.
“Why is my check engine light on?” I asked. “Didn’t know that it was,” the boyfriend answered.
“Why is there smoke coming out of the hood of my car?” I asked.
“Oh wow,” the boyfriend responded, and he pulled over to the side of the road.
We call AAA and they tow us to the boyfriend’s house where the two of us proceed to see what the heck is going on with my car.
Long story short, we don’t really know, and it looks like I’m without a car for a few days. Oh joy. At least the weather hasn’t been all that great the past two days so it’s not like I want to play outside. But it’s still a bummer and it’s consuming my thoughts.
I have no idea where I got this – I’m sure someone emailed it to me – but below is a list of “Larry’s Proverbs” that I found humorous and it made me laugh, and I could use a good laugh right about now. Enjoy!
