***UPDATED*** My CRUMMY day

I was on my way to work today, and I stopped at my usual station to get gas. Right after I leave, I notice, or should I say I HEAR that my driver side window is not closed all the way. It seemed to be off track and whistling like a teapot. Ugh!

SO, I'm driving down Sunrise Hwy and its raining and I put my windshield wipers on and I notice they are moving kind of strangely, almost like a jerky movement. Hmmmmmmmm...strange. Then my airbag light goes on. WTH? Now I'm getting nervous. I call Scott and tell him I'm going to drop my car off at the station on my way home from work to get it looked at.

Right after I hang up with him all my gauges start going wacko. Great. Thank goodness I'm right by work. One block away, they all just go to zero. I pull into the parking lot and shut off my car and try to start it again. Click, click, click...great!

I call the station and tell them and he tells me it sounds like the battery or alternator. He said if its the battery a jump should get me to the station (they are in Bohemia and I was in Farmingdale), but if its the alternator I probably wouldn't make it. I decided to chance it...you know where this is going...

Of course I get stuck in the middle lane right in front of an intersection about 20 ft over the RR tracks (I prayed I would make it over!). Not ONE single person even stopped to see if I was ok!!!! They sat behind me and honked, yelled and cursed, but no one even checked if I was ok. Nice. Did I say lately how I hate people?

One of the guys from work was nice enough to come help me get my car behind Jillians where I sat soaked to my knees for over an hour waiting for the tow truck.

The first thing the gas attendant says to me was 'weren't you just here getting gas?'

I really would have preferred to work today!!!
