Okay so yesterday night i was in a really bummed out mood as some of you kind people know. BUT i am not anymore because of great friends. I have picked myself up off the ground. And i wondered, if there were people today who could possibly be in the same mood but not quite sure how to ask for a smile. SO i am sharing my recent fail. I hope you all enjoy it. Feel free to laugh at my expense. I hope that if someone is having a rough day that this little silly story will cause a smile to grow on your lovely face and cause a glimpse of the sun to shine on your day:)
Okay my beautiful hot sexy friends. If you read this whole entire mess of randomly posted letters i guarantee you will enjoy it. Especially the guys(or girls) who are into cars. So to save my dad gas i let him take my car to work. I also work at the same place later in the day so he drives my car to use my gas so that it then saves my dear padre money. So we head to work. I had forgotten something important so i decided to drive home and come back later when i worked. I drive home. But on the way home i notice the brakes are acting weird. The car speeds up before it slows down and i had to push the brake pedal all the way down.So i get home and immediately call my dad who is a mechanic and was SUPPOSED to fix dear little Ellie's car that weekend. But didn't. Anywho! I call my brother out to look at it. And what do you know......dad put the parking brake on when we got to work. Now when i learned to drive my step mother informed me that what was actually the parking brake, she told me was the emergency brake. So i thought only for emergencies right? Makes sense? So i never touch it. Nope she was wrong. So because i was miss informed and my dad used it, it caused my crazy fail at life and caused me to look like the biggest dork alive. And yeah that is my crazy Tuesday afternoon story. Hope it got some laughs. I give you permission to openly laugh...cuz hey i guess it is funny right?

Thanks, that was Cute!! And it reminds me of my Own Car Story.
:happy: When I bought my 1st Car--a little Brown Maverick--my Grandfather went with me to help me pick a good car knowing that I know NOTHING about cars. He was following me home on the highway when the Oil Light in the Maverick came on. I panicked immediately, hit the Emergency Flashers, and parked the Car on the shoulder. I was practically in tears. Grandad checked it out, and reassured me that it was just a little low on Oil. He showed me how to Check The Oil and said that at the next Truck Stop he would show me how to Add Oil. At the Truck stop we bought a can of oil and after we added it to the car I saved the Empty Can. It was ~ He emphasized this ~ VERY IMPORTENT never to CHANGE the oil.
From then on I always carried at least One Can of Oil in the car. Whenever the Little Red Light Came on I Added Oil, just like he showed me!
:laugh: SIX YEARS LATER my new Husband almost had a stroke when he was driving my car and the Oil Light came on. I told him not to worry, I had Oil in the trunk and we could add it when we got home. He said "How long has it been since you changed the Oil?" Can you imagine his SHOCK when I answered:
:noway: "Even I know better than THAT!! You NEVER 'Change the Oil'!! You just Add Oil whenever the Red Light comes on".0 -

I have my own embarrassing car story! This happened about 6 months ago. I was at school and my car was overheating so I called my uncle who owns a mechanic shop and told him what was going on. He told me to pop my hood and look to see if there was water in the radiator. He told me it would have a top on it that had some sort of symbol and I would know that's where water would go. So I take the cap off to the oil and I look down in there and didn't see anything. I proceeded to pour a bottle of water into my oil before I realized that I was doing something wrong! I was panicking and my uncle sent one of his mechanics to change my oil for me so it wouldn't mess my car up! I was soo embarrassed!0

Haha well personally sometimes I think men don't explain things well and that in turn causes us to mess up. Maybe they do it Im purpose!0
