Taking Etan's car in to get it checked out for a possible alternator problem. I was driving Ethan's car and he was following me in the Escape.
Well we got about 1/2 way to the Automotive Services shop when the car decided to take a nap.
Sputtered shuttered belched out some blue smoke and died.... right in the left turn lane at 63rd and Main street Downers Grove...
Well Ethan was behind me and he had his flashers on. I had the flashers on with the car. So do people go around us... Nope... They pull right up behind the Escape and sit there honking when we don't move. Well people the flashers being on should be a hint!
But nope they back up so they can pull around us. Honking shaking fists, and fingers...
Wow... Like I broke down there on purpose just to mess up their drive home...
Stupid people... the flashers on both cars mean that there is a break down.
Don't pull up behind a disabled car WITH THE FLASHERS ON and get angry because it doesn't move!
Did I mention that the Flashers were on?
Oh well
The tow truck showed up and while he was hooking up to the car (yes the emergency lights on the tow truck were on, oh and the flashers on both cars were still on) some young chicky pulls up and starts honking because the light was changing.
So we start moving finally and she pulls out storms past waving her finger and with the other hand holding down the horn... (not sure how she was steering) and then she cuts in front of the tow truck to turn left. The same way we were going....
some people....
Oh well. Now we wait to find out what is wrong with this car... Hopefully it will be repairable. It only has to last another three years. (he only drives it about 2000 miles a year so that is not unreasonable to think it could last that long)
Keeping our fingers crossed...

Don't you know they don't teach that in drivers ed anymore, flasher=problem. They now teach how to text message while driving.
They had to eliminate something to have enough time to teach texting.
Hey you should have waved back with your finger. It's the "new" way to say hi, how you doing?
People UGH!!!!
