I was waiting at the light to change green. Then I would speed down the lane and merge onto the freeway. But something was wrong. I was low on gas. This I knew. But I still had 30 miles of gas left. I just needed to get to the gas station.
The car was choking. "Oh no, what's happening? Am I dying out here? Out here on the freeway?!!" I pulled over onto the shoulder and put on my hazard lights. I started to think about the possibility of having to call in the towing company. Or have someone come to me with gas. God dang this can't be happening. So I called Mas and told him what was going on. Then I decided to use the navigation to get me to the nearest gas station. Thank god one was close. I drove the car slowly off the freeway.
Now I'm driving down the block. It was nice that the folks around me were patient. They drove by me with caution. Then I get to a red light and look down. I can't freaking believe my eyes. I am such a dumbass. I'm blaming it on the fact that it was dark inside the car, cause I had it on manual!! How did I do that? No wonder it was choking!!
Freaking ay....
Well, I'm just glad I got home safe.

I'm glad you're ok, and that you're bloggerizing again! (HUGS)
I Wiied last night. It was great. Found your Mii too. Cute.
coyote, I drive a mazda3. I don't know how I had it on manual, but perhaps I banged into it while I was bending over for my bag, that was on the floor. And I was at a light, so I wasn't speeding and bending over. :)
I hope to Bloggerize more in the next coming days. YESSSS!!
