You wouldn't believe the week I had. I worked really hard to get caught up with all the movies I've missed in previous weeks, and was just on the cusp of getting caught up until Sunday. Well on Sunday I started feeling sick and tried to get someone to cover my shift at work. Of course because it was Sunday, no one was able to come in and cover my shift for me, basically because it was Sunday no one wanted to work that day. I had no choice but to suck it up and left early enough to stop by a drugstore to pick up some medicine before work. I made it to the interstate, just a few miles away from work when my car just stopped running.
What do you mean it just stopped running, Brittney?
Well thanks for asking. Apparently it's a thing that just happens with the 2003 Ford Taurus that Ford has yet to recall. The butt of the whole thing though is that there is no warning as to the problem. One day your just driving and suddenly without warning your car just stops. And for me, it happened to just stop working working when I was on the interstate on a Sunday afternoon, which equated to there being a lot of traffic on the roads.
Luckily I was able to get to the shoulder of the road, and there was no major accident. The car is in the shop and as soon as I'm able to get the money over to the mechanic today, they're going to start working on the car. In the mean time, I've had to ask friends to transport me to and from work each day. It's officially day five without having a vehicle and I'm going mad. I'm super behind now in the movie challenge and I don't know that there is really going to be a light at the end of this tunnel until after October. Regardless of how far behind in the challenge I get, I will have finished watching all 365 movies in 365 days even if means taping my eyes open on day 364 and watching six movies back to back.
Today I'm going to try to get at least three movies in, which means I will only have seven more movies to watch this week now. Wish me luck!!
