The Stroppy One and I were in the car, driving down to Portland for this weekend's Vampire Ball.
Then one of the car tires blew out.
A nice state trooper came and helped us, and it looks like the tire blowing out did ... something ... to the ABS. (There's a loose cable that looks like it should be attached to the tire, and the ABS indicator light had lit up on the dashboard, and look, neither of us are what you would call mechanically inclined.)
So. The Stroppy One is going to stay home this weekend. I am taking the train down to PDX tomorrow. There is a good chance I am going to take my work laptop with me and just stay the week with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
