Charity's blog: "Extraordinarily Ordinary"

     This really should have been a monday for me. lol. Right off the bat seven this morning I go and start the car up cause it has ice on it and this particular car i need to take to auto shops cause im trying to buy parts for it. Well I go back in the house getting ready and getting my girls ready for school. Nothing unusual. We proceed out the door get to this pain in the ass car and wtf all the doors are locked. Holy Shit! Needless to say at that moment "shit" became my mantra! Not only did I lock the lumnia keys in there but my expedition keys are locked up in there too!! Sooo I had the bright idea of a metal clothes hanger. You know im thinking im gonna pop the lock - not that I have ever done it as I have never locked myself out of my car before. Well that didnt work so I proceeded to have a two year old screaming fit in my front yard ( thank goodness I live in the county with only two neighbors lol) Needless to say the hanger, which took me forever to find as i dont use metal ones, went flying into the side of my house and I lost what little control I had left over myself and like an idiot threw the damn thing as it was useless to someone as inept as me when it comes to breaking into cars! Of course no help from the married front as he is in PA working. Sooo I get my mom to take my girls to school as my eldest (whoever heard of this?) was throwing a fit cause she was going to be late for school!? (I personally hated school lol) Sooo got my father in law to come over and try his hand at it. Had the local police on the line assuring me as soon as a cop decided to come to work that that person would come over asap and pop the lock (wtf?) Thankfully my father in law (poor man) finally after about 45 minutes managed to use another wire hanger to get the back window down and unlock my doors! Sweet!! And so I thought I was saved....wrong!! So I get in said car and proceed to continue with find freaking parts for this car from hell that is my husbands! And as has been the story since saturday, all auto parts stores tell me "We need to see the car. Sorry we cant help you!" Damm it! At least its not like yesterday when everyone wanted to sell me crap I didnt ask for. I might be accident prone and well a danger to myself, but Im not stupid! I know what a lug nut is and I dont want one! I only want a replacement mirror not the whole damn assembly! And on top of it all at the tire shop Damn it to hell I was here waiting before the other two idiots how come I get waitied on last???? Cause im a woman Im sure but my money spends just like anyone elses!!!! And so then went to wal-mart to get a copy of key to car from hell just incase I leave my brain in bed again and the guy at the counter tells me after he hands me the the brand new copy, " It might not work. " Really???? So Im like okay and just looking at him like he sooo just didnt say that to me, and then he tells me the key machine has been broke so if my key doesnt work just bring it back and he will make another ( on the broken machine??? damn it!!!) or he will give me back my money (which I have discovered no one seems to want). I assure him that the car from hell is in the parking lot and ill try it out before I leave the parking lot. So I go to car from hell that hates me and being super scared my dumb ass will somehow find a way to lock myself out again makes sure the freaking window is all the way down and I try out the new copy. Wonder of wonders it works! So then left thinking okayyyy maybe things will work out. So I go and get a gas cap from a different auto shop than the one i was in earlier but that i was in twice yesterday. They looked at me like oh shit not her again lol (is a replacement mirror and rods (stems) for the tire that fucking hard?) and get a gas cap for my mothers truck, and yes it worked. However in the morning I now have to go back to the tire shop and have rods(stems) fixed and new hub caps put on, and then its on to the glass and mirror shop where i have been told they will cut the damn mirror and install it at a resonable price!?? What exactly is a resonable price? Oh yes they have to see the car first!  grrr I really dont know what my reaction will be if I get there and they tell me, "Sorry we cant help you".
