…………. I don’t even know where to begin.<\/p>\n
I guess I’ll just start by saying I was having such a good day until I had to call Campus Towing to rescue me.<\/p>\n
It all started when I was on my way to class at 4:30 and realized I had left my phone at home. I didn’t go back for it because I was already running late (of course) plus we had a sub so I figured class wouldn’t run the full 2 hours anyway. After class I decided to run a few errands. I was almost enjoying the freedom of not having my cell phone with me! I went to Target and did a little shopping at the mall and when I was done I went out to my car to drive home when I put my keys in the ignition ANDDDD my car doesn’t start. The engine doesn’t even turn over. This has happened to me before and all it needed was a jumpstart so I went back into Target to see if I could use their phone to call my sister who lives in Coralville. Knowing my sister, I wasn’t expecting her to answer a call from a number she doesn’t know so I make a few more phone calls and finally reach my parents in Okoboji. Not that they could do much from 5 hours away but luckily they were able to reach my sister and she was soon on her way to jump my car.<\/p>\n
After about 25 minutes of two girls trying to perform mechanical magic on a ’97 Doge Intrepid, a kind gentleman named Todd came to our rescue (we thought). Todd tried jumping\/fixing my car while his beautiful family of 5 patiently sat waiting, watching, and laughing at our expense. After another 20 minutes or so Todd suggested we call a tow truck.<\/p>\n
THANK GOD FOR AAA. And for Todd. And for kind Target employees. And for my sister who thought I was going to try to walk from the mall to her house and was driving around looking for me.<\/p>\n
