Well my day started off good I was in a wonderful mood for 2 reason one I did not have to work and the second was I had to meet Bob at noon to pick up the Omni.
Well I found a ride down to his house my dads girlfriend gave me a ride so after she drops me off she heads out well as I start driving the omni away Bob reminds me to take it easy on her( she has a rod knock and broken tranny mount) I was like OK so as I leave I go up to the gas sation by Bobs house to get some gas in it well go figure I run into some fucking retarded redneck in a station wagon and the ask me what is wrong with the car and I told them what was wrong with it and he said well how long has it been like that and I said i dont know I just bought it and he started giving me shit and offered to sell me his car for $200 well I just ignored his ass and pumped my gas.
Once I get moving down the road and I get to the interstate and low and behold who do I see none other than the redneck in the wagon so as we are mergeing into the interstate I give the omni some gas and get her going well I pull up beside him and he floors the rust bucket he calls a car well still in 3rd I just floor the poor omni and leave him in a wonderful bliss of rod knock and spoolage. I dont think he liked it.
Well all is going well and I get to my exit I slow down and stop at the stop light well I put the car in first and start to take off I go to shift into second and then BLAM it happens the shifter linkage falls off(the tranny mount is broken so the engine moves as it feels free and the linkage poped off at the tranny) and the car is stuck in neutral I pull off the side of the road and wonder why the car is not going anywhere then I realize that the shifter linkage is broken well I get out of the car and I was going to attempt a side of the road repair I get the jack out and jack the car up. After it is jacked up I get under it to see what is up I can see the linkage just hanging there but the car is not up high enough for my fat ass to get under so there I am stuck on the side of the road well after freaking out abit and sitting on the side of the road I remember that I now have a cell phone that works so I get on the horn and call my pops he says nots a problem isa be down tha ina couple minutes so as I am waiting for him to come my new best bud in the station wagon drives by honking the horn. He kinda stops for a sec and says see ya shoulda buys my car all I could do at that point was laugh my ass off then here comes pops round the corner with some tools needless to say I did make it home.
Total time for the trip: 4hours
What a fucking day!!!!
