The car was fixed with an astronomically priced tune-up. Apparently, Volkswagens are supposed to break less, but cost more for each break, which I suppose makes it a wash in the end.

This complication has caused Sammy and I to decide to rent a car using the Enterprise discount I get through my work ($302 for 12 days, AFTER taxes, not too shabby!)

The road trip is on!

Just…it’s had nothing to do with that light.

Is that bad?

The solid light, I was told ages ago, was just a sensor malfunction. I thought the blinking light was more of the same. Since the blinking light always stops (and nothing has happened) I, uh, haven’t done anything about it…

Heh. Hmmmmmm…
