RATS of a day

You know........when you are hanging on by your fingernails and then all of a sudden Murphy jumps in and blows it all to heck? Ever had one of those days?

Yeah. Me too. And today was that day.

Working at the SNF today (because I really want to go to Disneyland for my birthday) and about half way to work, my oil light comes on. So I stop and check the oil. Well howdy doody it is fine. What the hay? So I get BACK into my car and start it to find......the oil light is off.

Start back on the journey to the work place and yep, there it is again. So I did the everything above again. And again and finally on the fourth time I just went ahead to work. Had a FABULOUS day at work, and when I got into the car and started it, no oil light! Yayness!!! And then right in front of KFC it goes on again. Swerved into Auto Zone to have it diagnosed to no avail. All it says is that a couple of knock sensors are acting up. One on tier one and one on tier two.

What in the heck are KNOCK SENSORS??? And what the heck does that have to do with oil??? Weeeellllllll....exactly nothing.

So my mechanic neighbor is looking at it tomorrow to see if my old beater can be fixed. I hope so because I don't want another car payment.

Sheesh. I need a vacation!
