Winter Has Arrived

So...Sunday night, pretty much all of South Dakota was in a blizzard/winter weather warning. And ya, basically, the next morning, my car was covered from head to toe (?) with a half inch of solid ice. I had alot of fun getting it off, that's for dang sure. Especailly when my fucking ice scraper broke. So I now have a big wooden stick with a brush on it. It was OK though, because I got to repeatedly whack my car with a big wooden stick. I had to shatter the ice over the windows (by far the most fun...it was like shattering the glass only not so expensive), around the doors, the trunk, and the hood.

(Ammendment: Today I went to put gas in my car, and while I was at the station realized I hadn't freed up my gas door. So I got out my stick and beat the car until the ice was off. I'm sure I got a few strange looks...)

On Tuesday, I got to go to Mallette and do it to someone else's car. *smilez*

Crystal's car had just been chillin' out at this gas station in Mallette since Sunday. It needed to be fixed before it could be driven again. So she calls the gas station to ask if there is a mechanic in Mallette. The dude who answered the phone said no and asked what was wrong with the car. When she told him, he offered to fix it for free. His wife worked at the station and he was just hangin' out there, bein' bored. So ya...

While we were waiting for Crystal's car to be ready, we just chilled inside talking to the guy's wife. She explained how she had been outside when Crystal called and when she came back in, her husband announced that he was going to go home and get his tools so that he could "fix that car sittin' outside." How random must that have seemed? *lolz*
