People I'd like to thank today: The asian man at the dry cleaners who let me use his phone 3 different times to call to see why my roadside assistance hadn't arrived. It was more than 2 hrs. after the posted time on the the door, and he was still working. Doing the math, I figured he just put in a 12 hr.+ day, but he still offered to put a spare tire on my car. The attractive 30 something guy who lives around the corner who helped me attach the air pump to my tire, while he was holding his big black lab, that my little dog hates. I really mean it, I have never seen anything like it. Now I know that he doesn't hold it against me that we create a scene when we are walking our dogs at the same time. Also in the nice try category, my neighbor who attached her bicycle pump to my tire in the attempt to pump it back up. The fellas at Goodyear who let me use their phone to call roadside assistance the first time, and finally the young black man who was sent out by roadside assistance, unaware of the saga that had been unfolding for almost 4 hrs.. He was so nice, I just couldn't take out my upsetment on him.

P.S. I am on vacation for a few days, so it shouldn't be any surprise that I had car trouble, but somehow it was.
So much for the shoes I was going to get at Kohl's, the little girl outfits I was going to look at for my nieces upcoming 3rd birthday. The DVD's and the Jack Skellington doll I was going look at in Media Play.
Tomorrow is another day
