1) My car broke down about 20 miles west of South PIttsburg, Tennessee (the last city/town/populated area I saw.) in the middle of absolute no where.
2) This is my new (well new to me) car I only bought 2.5 weeks ago.
3) I have no way to contact my Dad and my Mom has no money.
4) I’m now stuck in a place called Kimball, Tennessee.
5) I owe the tower $225 for towing me to my hotel and will owe him more to tow it to a mechanic tomorrow. I only have $75 left after my $79 hotel because it was the only one that would take dogs.
6) I am 586 miles from Daytona Beach.
7) I am 577 miles from Chicago.
8) By the time the cops showed up (2 hours after they said they would) and the tow guy got there (another 20ish minutes) it was so cold there was a layer of ice of my whole car. I’d been standing outside the whole time in just a sweatshirt and open flats apparently I ‘looked cold’ so the officers let me sit in the car (the only nice thing to happen tonight).
Fuck everything.
