So this morning has sucked miserably, and its only 7:30 am as I am beginning to write this... 
 
First off, I overslept.  Not just 10 or 15 minutes, but a whole hour!!!  So once I awoke, I flew through the shower, threw some cloths on, and lastly hastily applied makeup.  I ran out the door and turned on my car and noticed...Shit...I don't have any gas.  Certainly not enough to get me the 25 miles to work this morning.  So I go to the gas station, swipe my card and begin fueling.  As the gas is pumping, I glance at the freeway.  It looks nice and smooth.  Thank Jebus for Friday light.  I might actually only make it in 20 minutes late.  Thats when I just so happened to look at the amount of gas that was pumping into my care.  As it approached the 9 gallon mark, I was wondering why it wasn't stopping.  It should have stopped by now.  Thats when I heard it and smelled it.  The damn pump didn't stop pumping when it was supposed to.  Gas was squirting out of my gas tank and all over the side of my car and onto the ground, and onto my tires.  I grabbed the pump and shut it off, but not before I stepped into the growing puddle of Gasoline at my feet.  Now my damn shoes (my favorite shoes) smell like gasoline and that pisses me off.  I didn't have time to clean up the gas that was on the side of my car as I was already super late for work, so I got in the car and prayed the entire way that the gas that was on the tire would not ignite from the heat of rubber on asphalt as I drove into work.  Twice I swear I smelled smoke as I was driving.  I have never been this scared in my entire life.  Never has the fear of my own car catching fire been so real.  Thankfully I made it into work. 
 
I will be spending my lunch break at a car wash today.  Lucky me.  But I NEED to get that gas off my car.  I only hope that everything will be ok.  Thaks for reading about my issues.

If they do catch on fire. You can sue the gas station for not maintaing their pumping equipment. 

Gas evaporates pretty quick, a spill on your car would be gone in an hour.

This token entitles you to one internet hug, redeemable any time.

" @The_Laughing_Man: Ya, but I can't afford a good lawyer sadly.  I can barely afford to put said gasoline in my car... 
 
@Insectecutor: But the smell will still be there, and I will still be fearful. "

Ghost ride the whip.  Take pics.  Be happy.

Bah...I've once overslept a whole day!...Seriously, oversleep is like my type of vice =/. And 25 miles to work?? You have my sympathies. I'm only willing to go as far as a couple of bus rides for a job I apply for ;P

Wow that is a pretty bad morning. I'm sorry to hear it :( Did your boss complain about how late you were? Hope the day turns around for ya, afterall, its friday :) 
 
Ps. Anyone notice how the op was running late for work, but then once at work, posts a blog? :P i found it amusing :)

That sucks, though it would've been awesome if you were flying into the parking lot driving a fireball.  Would've shown your dedication to your job :).

" @Abyssfull: You left out the part where my car was going to catch fire. "

And the fate of the shoes?!?! They sound like the biggest victim here.
 
Are they and your feet just stained black now or what?

bummer... (loled at the jebus part)

I once woke up early to take a leak and it burned
 
Still made it to school on time though

Ah, that sucks. I probably come off as an asshole by saying this, but my morning was beautiful. The sun was shining and I had plenty of time to waste before I had to get going so I made a good cup of coffe and watched cartoons while I eat breakfast. Haven't had a good morning like that in a looong time though. 
 
Hope the your car issues gets straighten out, and your SHOES too! 

I would have called in sick at stage 2

yes, I have some aromathereputic candles we can lite at evening "

That's hilarious, and something straight out of a comic.  I miss owning a car and driving to work, and the good old fun it has.  
 
This is also why I take public transportation.  if some idiot suicides on the tracks, like they did every fucking day in Tokyo, they gave us slips to give to our company.

Hell yes! It's a date. I'll pack my bag right now and I'll meet you in the tunnel of luv. You ask me when?? When the time is right, baby! When the time is right... "

Another day, another dollar to flush in the toilet.

Ah you are so cute!, keep up with the good blogging

Suddenly, my three hours of sleep followed up by my dads' dog waking me up doesn't seem so bad anymore.
 
Hope your day goes well.

Hmmm a thread where a girl is bitching about something, and has car troubles hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

No, the worst morning ever is a really bad hangover and regretting the horrible decisions you made the previous night.

Man and I thought I had some terrible mornings.
 
I hope the rest of your day goes alright.

ahh you  call that a bad day . *sigh*
