Roxanne 1995-2005
Roxanne(my car for those that don't know her name) died this sunday. Well, I am 99% sure she is dead. In technical terms her head gasket blew. My car had been overheating since like may, but only when I would drive from austin to dallas and back. Which had been alot lately with the doctors appointments, grad, holidays and my family moving. I got it checked out at goodyear twice and they did a few things but nothing to fix it. Then on my drive back I was 10 miles south of waco when my car started acting weird, I look in my mirror and there is a large cloud of smoke behind me. I pulled over into a texico and called my dad. I was already emotional to begin with because of my goodbye to my family and now this. My dad was just like I am on my way. So him and my mom drove all the way to waco to meet me. Then my dad drove my car all the way to austin, then they left. My poor dad and mom. They didn't get back to the colony till 4 in the morning and my dad had a flight he had to get for at 5 and my mom was having to drive to abilene with my brother's all-star team(they made it to regionals!!!!!). So now Roxanne sits in my parking lot on life support. My dad is coming this weekend to most likely trade her in for a new car for me. I should be excited about the new car, but I am not. I love my Roxanne. Rest in Peace Roxanne.
