The great road trip begins in 4 days. It's like the leprechauns once said: on the other side of the rainbow (which is the road trip), there lies a grand pot-o-gold (being the UK)!! That analogy works, you see, because even the road trip is going to be fun.
I've been so ecstatic about my trip, that my heart sank yesterday when I walked into my garage to find my car screaming at the top of its lungs. Well, more like an invisible someone had laid on the horn: "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...!" (you get the picture).
The timing was perfectly appropriate to make my hair to curl and cause me to start panicking that I'd have to make payments on a car fixture instead of my extracurricular fun on my trip... Especially frustrating because I was on my way to work when I noticed the horn, I didn't have time to do anything about it so I had to leave it (and leave my car's battery to die), and it was still going when I got back from work.
Long story short, I disconnected the battery for night. It randomly started working again and I don't need to fix it. For now.
I was frantic and panicky...until I realized how funny the situation actually was.
Now, off to fix myself something to eat, which will be quite the task as I have been emptying my fridge over the week in preparation for being gone.
Rice cakes?
