So last night I did laundry, this morning I showered and packed and had all my cds and games ready for the 6 hour drive. I love the drive to Pullman so I'm very excited.
And my car won't start.
I did the DEQ test last night and they revved the hell out of it to get it to pass, it passed but now there is something horribly wrong. It wouldn't start at the DMV for a long time, and I don't know why it finally started when it did. It started at campus, it started at home, and now it refuses to. The key turns, the car goes "wahwahwahwahwah" which I'm told is called 'cranking', but the VROOM that is supposed to happen after all the wahwahwahing doesn't happen. Just endless 'cranking' until I turn off the key and cry about it.
Over the last three hours I've tried at least 20 times. No one is here to help me and I feel so lost. We have socket wrenches but not the sizes I need. I want to be there for Jeremiah's birthday but he is just going to go to the bars so he won't mind so much if I'm not there. If my car miraculously starts up tomorrow I'll go, otherwise it will be too late. I'm very worried about getting to school next week.
I spend too much goddamn money on my car for it to not work when I need it to.
