Isla got locked out of her car today at Dairy Joy with Lauren and I. Luckily, her window was rolled down a little, and we used my umbrella and Lauren's ice scrapers to try to push the unlock button. We pushed hard and that little fucker WOULD NOT unlock. So, of course, being the suave kid I am suggest that we use my jumper cables to pinch and pull the lock knob on the door. And voila! Isla got in her car. It's all about the team work, bitches.
