The week of insanity

So, last night began the week of insanity:

I was to work on Monday, start summer school Tuesday/Wednesday, leave for our flight at 6:15am on Thursday, be in Oregon and start wedding festivities while catching up with great friends! I was running around trying to get everything ready and Tim finally got me to calm down and relax.

I went to work this morning - I had a really long day and after many delays, I was on my way home. I was below empty really, so Dad put some gas in my car so I could make it to a station. I filled up, and got on the interstate. I was exhausted. Then it started raining.

I hate rain. I hate driving in the rain. I hate driving in the rain on the interstate. I hydroplane off an exit ramp in Sep/Oct so I was being really cautious going to that same exit. All of my sudden my car makes a funny noise. Not loud, not weird, just funny. All of a sudden as I round the bend of a the ramp and start heading up the hill to turn right on 49 (mind you, I'm 1 mile from home).

So, all of a sudden, my car refuses to drive. It starts actually going in REVERSE. I start heading down the hill. I throw it in park, I try other gears, and get nothing. My car continues to go in reverse rather than drive. I put my hazards on, frantically call Tim, and hope no one comes sharply around the turn and hits me. Tim gets there, we call Allstate, they send a tow truck. One hour and fifteen minutes after my car refuses to drive, the tow truck gets there. One hour and fifteen minutes of freaking out and thinking someone is going to hit my car.

So now, I have no car. Mandy Jo is taking me to class tomorrow. I have no idea how I'll get to class Wednesday. HOPEFULLY, all goes well and the car can get fixed. I have no idea what's wrong. Tim thinks it's the transition. Let's hope the rest of the week goes better!
