Mystic musings

Ok, how is this for Divine Interpretation class 101.

We know the starter solenoid is 'sticky' i.e. when the car is hot the car will not start, so I can't shut it off get out do stuff get back in and drive. Will have to wait for the car to cool each time I get out.

Now, filled the tank to the very very top, thinking ok, perhaps we will try to make it all the way to Vegas without stopping.

The smell of gas permeating the interior of the car when I came back to it from being inside the station. Look under the car... GAS!!!! A puddle of gas has formed. I can see it leaking down.

Push the car over to the retaining wall and leave it parked.

My brother, on the phone from Chicago, "How many signs do you need before you decide maybe you shouldn't drive to Vegas?" Me, "huh?" Bro, "Maybe you are being given a message not to go, maybe something worse is on the way if you go." Me, "huh?" Bro, *laugh*.

Jerry, the auto guy, "I'll be over in the morning and we'll take care of it". Me... "hmm.. "

Ok, Divine Interpretation 101. Am I not to go, or am I to be more clever in making it happen?

*shurg*

I'll check my car again in a half hour... it's still at the gas station 5 blocks away.
