What a sad little Miata...

So, I've been having a few car troubles...

Last week during an outing for cosplay supplies I was met with the magical disappearing clutch. In other words, the pedal turned into something of a plaything and I was locked firmly into neutral in a turn lane. In my panic I made my phone calls to friends for help then was met shortly afterward by a police officer who was happening by. The cop offered to push me to the side of the road but in doing so, pushed me into a curb which stopped all oncoming traffic and cracked my bumper.

Once in a parking lot I waited patiently for friends to arrive. My car savvy assistants were unable to diagnose the problem so my vehicle was pushed to a nearby neighborhood.

Later that evening J decided to take a look at the supposed clutch problem which turned out to be an over-zealous leak.

The night was not made any more relaxing by my negligence to take my credit card with me from Applebees.

Since then my car's been towed, i've paid out $300 in clutch repairs and I also have a cracked radiator. Thanks to my incredibly generous best friend, my car now sits in his garage with a brand new radiator for cost.



Oh what a week... I just wish I had enough money for Diablo III

:(
