I've had a bad night. Please let me vent. No need to reply but I thought I'd feel better if I wrote this out.
I ran out of gas tonight. I was driving home from work and thought, "oh, oh....I'm not going to make it home". So I got off the Highway at and my car just died. So there is a gas station 50 yards down the road so I go there and THEY HAVE NO STINKING GAS CANS!!! I was like, "what!?". Some kid who worked there (Josh) was SO nice. He offered to push my car but it's a bad road so I declined. He let me use their phone and I called AAA. They said the wait is LONG and it they can get there BEFORE 7!!! So as I was leaving Josh offered me a drink but I declined because if I had to pee...where would I pee...on the street? So I went to my car and waited about 1 hour. I was getting mad and started walking to the gas station to call AAA again but the guy with the gas came and beeped his horn so I had to walk BACK to my car. He got there at 6:45!! I waited about 1 hour!!! Now, normally, I wouldn't care. But my car was at the END of the off ramp and I almost caused an accident three times. Nobody was looking in front of them (where I was). They were looking to merge into traffic. This one woman sped up to merge into traffic then had to slam her brakes and swerve into the other lane. Two people who were in that lane had to swerve and slam their brakes. I thought for sure I was going to get hit. Thank God my dog Fenway wasn't with me and thank God he wasn't at doggy day care (after 6pm he has to boarded). But he did have a 12 hour day so when I got home I quickly walked him. He was fine. He peed and then took 20 minutes to poop and when he did, it was HUGE! So I think I'm going to get one of those pay as you go cell phones. Thank God I got off the highway so I could walk to the gas station. But why didn't they have a gas can? It was a On the Run place so I'm going to email them and let them know Josh was very helpful but they should have a gas tank.
So how was YOUR night? Heeheehee. Thanks for letting me vent and I'm so glad Fenway was okay.

) and call a tow truck. Now keep in mind we had 2 large dogs with us, and a trailer with their kennel in it and we're in Beckley WV
Thank goodness they were able to find us a motel that took dogs (of course the room was about the size of a shoe box
). There were no restraunts around and no convenience stores/gas stations close either so basically no food for us or the dogs, just the snacks we had with us. The next morning my dad brought his truck (he was about 250 miles away) and a trailer and took us home. One of the worst times we ever had. And had to spend an extra $300-400!
Huney, Bon & Simba-missed so very much
