It Would Only Happen To Me...

I've finally accepted that I really am a walking Murphy's Law... there are certain things in life that really would only happen to me. Case in point: yesterday I had two MAJOR tests, so I knew that Tuesday night was going to be a long one. I had a recruitment meeting at 930 (which I drove to), then after the meeting I drove to the library, and parked my car in this side parking lot. I turned off my car, and this happened:



Yup...my key snapped in two. After quickly calling M, S, and my parents I called triple A, to have someone tow my car to my house (I could only park in the lot until 7am) and waited for the tow truck to come. And waited. After about an hour and a half of sitting by my car trying to study, and about 5 phone calls from the tow truck man who was lost, Steve (of Steve's towing) finally showed up....and told me that he couldn't tow my car home because it would hurt the transmission (only he told it in a way that was MUCH ruder.)

After finally getting home at about 1am on Tuesday night (Steve didn't give me a ride) I started studying for my first test until about 3am, then woke up at 8am on Wednesday to BEG the parking people not to give me tickets while my car was sitting in the parking lot, took my test at 10am, studied for my second test about an hour and a half before, came home from classes at 7pm, before going to hear a (GREAT) speaker for my sorority at 730pm.

Whew! So happy that the past couple days are over! I actually think I did alright on my tests (although that usually means that I didn't haha) and the spare key from my parents came today so I was able to move my car. So now instead of doing anything remotely productive, I'm sitting at home watching How I Met Your Mother (S just got the 4th season) and relaxing. SO happy that the weather is FINALLY fall-like, and Happy October 1st everyone...only 26 days until my 22nd bday...eek!!

  6. Ohhh KAC I am sorry but I am laughing so hard right now. First of all I know you were totally freaking out and secondly, THE EXACT SAME THING happened to me with my rover when I was in College except it broke of in the ignition and stayed in there, not fun and yup they dont tell you this but it will mess up the transmission if they tow your car... I know you know how hard it is to be a rover owner but this event was one of the toppers, such a pain in the bum. I ended up getting three extra sets of keys made just in case this happened again (and it did... twice) Hope you have a much better week :)

    P.S its raining in Boston, figures
