Car Trouble

It was a regular day on that Monday (Feb. 22, 2010) when my vehicle clutch pedal went out. I was about to bag out of my parking space when all of a sudden, the clutch pedal was stuck to the floor and wouldn’t come up. I was glad that I wasn’t stranded on the side of the road. I went back inside and called the auto service company to come out and tow my vehicle to get it fixed. I asked them how much would it cost to get it fixed, and they told me around $65o.00, but if I had to get the clutch pedal replaced, it would be between $1200-$1300. I knew that would set me back a bit, but praise God, my total bill was $776.28. My clutch didn’t have to be replaced, the cylinder of the clutch needed to be fixed. All the other fees was for labor, towing, and parts. I needed a vehicle to get from point A to point B, so it didn’t take a long time for them to fix the vehicle.

When the towing company came to my place to tow the vehicle, the auto service company was about to close, so we headed back to another auto service company so they can fix it. It was on the other side of town. When we arrived, most of the mechanics weren’t present for me to talk to, so I called there main phone line and spoke with a representative. Unfortunately, I had to keep the vehicle their so they can work on it the next day, but it was done. The towing company dropped me back home, and during the way, I started a conversation with him. His name was Mark. He was a cool guy, and really enjoyed his job. I invited him to one of my upcoming shows so he can check me and my band out. He gladly accepted and said he would also invite his family.

I didn’t know from a minor breakdown of my vehicle, I would make a connection. However, all things happen for a reason right? So from now on, I’m going to take life as it comes. No matter what happens good or bad, I will look for the positive out of every situation. How about you? Let me know if you experienced something like this. Talk to you later.
