What a way to start back to work


I was driving down Main street on my way to work yesterday, and all the electrical goes out and then the truck stopped. Luckly it was very light traffic because of the holiday and I was able to push my truck across three lanes into a driveway. I gave Dad a call and had him give me a jump. Then he followed me as I headed towards work and it died again, so we decide to head to a shop. The place I usually take my truck to is in North tonawanda, but the one Dad goes to is in Buffalo so we head there. After a couple of jumps, we made it. I tell him what was going on and he says that they probably will not get to look at it that day. Dad drops me off at work and it looks like things have been pilling up and it is a busy day. After work I tried out the Metro Rail. There is a stop right by the hospital and then there is one about a mile from my house. It costs 1.50 one way, so it is not too bad to take it. I will try to start taking it on nice days. I took it back into work this morning. I got a call this Morning from the shop and it was as we though.. a bad alternator. It should be done sometime this afternoon.

Wow, metro rail. Nice! Why don't you use it more often? Is the traffic no big deal?
