Unhappy I Shoulda Dynoed the Saturn....

.... because THEN the tranny really woulda went. And it wouldn't have pooped out in the middle of nowhere.

I left the meet today, and the car was acting as bad as normal. Hopped on 46 or whatever that **** was. I was going up a hill and noticed I was barely staying at 50 (which, might I add, took about 2 mins to achieve). Whatever. Down the hill got to 55ish. Keep in mind I'm trying to accelerate and I thought maybe I was, but it was really just the hill. Next hill, I was getting nothing, it was like I was in neutral. I barely crept up the hill getting down to less than 30. Took the first exit which put me in Clifton or Nutley who the hell knows. Basically I came to a stop, put it in first, hand didn't move off 0. Put it in first and dropped the clutch, nothing. Luckily some guy came and pushed me into a parking lot. Keep in mind, my phone assed out. The guy let me borrow his for a minute, I called my boyfriend and he said to check the clutch juice reservoir Looked in there, almost empty. So he says go to somewhere and buy brake fluid and fill it in. I walked about 1/2 mile to target and bought that and was looking for a charger your phone super quick thing but they didn't have it (nor did Staples). That was okay cuz I got kinda optimistic because the reservoir was empty so I figured damn, just fill that **** in and you will get home. Ha. I run back to my car cuz cops are in the lot flashlighting it, they tell me I can leave it til I get a way to get it home (which means tonight). So I walk to CVS hoping they have something to charge my phone. Nope. I call my bf from there again and ask what to do and oh man he's lucky he wasn't with me cuz I woulda punched him. In the end, he had no clue. "Take the bus". Yeah. From Nutley. Well turns out there is a bus. I took the bus to the Newark Lightrail station. Took the lightrail to Penn Station. Took the bus from Penn to Journal Square in JC. I got off the bus in Journal Square and GUESS WHAT?! Some jackass decided it had to rain. So I am walking in a downpour on Bergen Ave waiting for a bus but still walking because I'm cold. I wind up only taking the bus about 2 miles out of 5 1/2 because the busses run slow at this time.

The reason I say I shoulda dynoed is because I am sure 90% of you guys have AAA.

Needless to say, props to Justin for remembering to bring my sweater because that thing absorbs water better than a sponge, between that and my aeropostale sweater, I stayed dry.

After all that, I end the day being randomly called a dingdong by Bubba. Thanks, Bubba.
