Not a week after I spent megabucks having my car's transmission fixed, tonight it thoroughly died. Plus, after having been off work (involuntarily) for a week I have an assignment for tomorrow -- all the way out in Reston. I don't think they HAVE public transportation out there.

This problem is nothing that a certain amount of time and a lot of money can't fix. It's just right now I desperately need someone to hug me and rub my back and tell me that everything will be all right.

(One small silver lining: oh yes this is still under warranty.)

hug for you j.lu and hopes for a speedy recovery for your car :-)

it would merely be a sad situation if the car had broken down. however, the fact that you must travel into reston makes the situation tragic. good luck!

everything will be all right, really. i hope it happens soon.

Thanks, everyone. (And Aaron, you are so right.)

"reston sucks" = tautological statement ;-)
