Well.....last night was pretty much a clusterfuck. Took Jess in to work after we stopped at Reasors for some cheap sushi. After that i went to Wal-Mart to get some household junk for my apartment. Sophie did her usual little thing of making me wait a few minutes before she would start in the Wal-mart parking lot. No big deal. I took her to a

Perhaps it's the fuel pump. Almost every one of my cars did that same thing - sounds like it's not getting gas. Dad said it was the fuel pump or the fuel filter. The filter is easily replaced, but the pump is a little more complicated. Car troubles suck. Makes me wish for ye old Wagon Days.

Her quality of life would have declined so badly and i just couldn't bear to think of her limping around the driveway, safe only for short rolls on flat ground in good weather and only properly supervised to make sure she didn't

Man, that sucks. My mom had car trouble all summer long. I hope that Sophie doesn't have a reoccuring injury. :(
