Coat Check

I had a full weekend of driving that already feels like it was ages ago. I went Greyhound 11 hrs down to Buffalo to get my neeew car (in my best price-is-right voice). It's a '97 Dodge Stratus. Pretty decent gas mileage. The driver's side door won't unlock. So I've worked this strategy out today to keep myself from looking ridiculous because I have to walk around the car twice before I get in and go: always keep something on hand that looks semi-important to dump in the passenger seat. Other than that there's nothing else really that's wrong with it except there's not much of a clock and the cd player gets moody after a little while (not cool). I love the smell of febreeze auto. Too much.

I rock in beginning elementary spanish. It makes me happy.

That is all.

or possibly leave the window down so you can "starsky-and-hutch-it" (jump through the window).

Lol.
I can sympathize. I had a car in the same situation. I broke the handle though. I tried to open it, and it came off in my hand. What is really problematic is when a total stranger runs into the bank to inform you that you have indeed left your car in drive and that it is rolling down the hill, and you can't open the drivers door after you have dashed out past a large group of people who think you are insane or you have robbed the bank. It was quite embarrassing.
Also,
Espanol rocks!!!
