Car Woes (and Kiele spam)

[thelyn]

I was supposed to be in Pismo this week, but my trip got cut short unfortunately because of car troubles. I was planning to take the Escape down to Pismo - despite it no longer being our primary car - because Mutti had some things for me to bring back up and it is bigger than the convertible. Tuesday morning I got up bright and squirrely to head down, but didn't get as early of a start as I wanted. As I was heading for the 101 South...the check engine light came on even though poor Allie (yes, we name our cars..shut up. :P) was warmed up and seemed to be running fine. I called Evil and he suggested that I switch cars with him - which meant turning around and going to Cupertino which is in the totally opposite direction than I was headed, but whatever. Went, left him the Escape to deal with and I took Rooby the Bug to Mutti's.

Wednesday late afternoon I got a call from Evil that he was stranded because his scooter (which he commutes with when weather is good) wouldn't start. Long story short I cut my trip to Mutti's short and came home because it seemed we had ONE currently working and reliable vehicle...and it was 200 miles away in Pismo.

So the jist of it is that I am back and we are a one car family again for a while until we can afford to take Allie in to get looked at and get a new battery for the Scooter.
Rooby of course is running like a champ. ^___^

So after all that...have some Kiele whom I sprung from Pismo:
