Not what I had planned...

My car died out from under me today. Suddenly the accellerator stopped working. Got over to the side of the road, and then the car would not start at all. Thank the diety of your choice that it happened where there was cell phone reception.

AAA, a tow truck, much waiting for Owen to be able to pick me up from the fix-it place, and now I'm home. Gillian is turning out Brandee today, I can borrow Owen's car tomorrow morning and all day Sunday, and I'm paying to have Brandee turned out Monday. By COB Monday I'm *hoping* whatever is wrong is fixed (the tow truck driver opined it might be "the coil").

Think good thoughts for me and the car, folks. I can not afford to buy a car right now!
