Dear Car Gods

Dear Car Gods,
Please stop attacking me.  I'm pleading with you.  I will get my car registered with the State of California.  I have an appt May 18th.  But you know there is this whole money thing.  I know you are angry but throwing an awning off an Arby's at my windshield just makes it take longer.  Or putting a cop on my previously un-policed street to give me tickets two days in a row, just makes it take longer.  Or the strange rattling sound that now comes from the bottom of my car.  Or the fact that I can hear my brakes when I just got them in August.  Or Or Or. Grace me mighty ones with just a  moment to catch up. One moment or a winning mega millions lotto ticket.  You're choice. But I would go with the lotto ticket.
