It's getting hotter everyday, and finally reached the 80s this weekend. Heat doesn't just make ppl horny, it also burns up my car.
I was driving out for a few minutes to pick up my dinner. The air is stifling in my car, so I had to turn on the A/C even if this means extra gas money. Then I smelt burning on my way back. After I parked my car in front of my apt, I saw smoke coming out under the hood. So I popped the hood, and FIRE! It was small and confined to the bumper area, but it was starting to spread with the influx of air. One of my neighbors suggested calling fire dept, but I have to act quickly, otherwise, who knows what wud happen (car blown up maybe? This thought made my cringe). Lucky for me, there's a water horse (sorry, water hose, lame attempt at a joke) nearby, and I used it to extinguish the fire. (I do have an extinguisher in my glove compartment, but forgot it at that moment.)
When I had enough time to calm down and write this blog, it occurred to me that probably I was driving while my car was already on fire. Scary...
Now I have get rid of this second-hand car immediately and buy a new car this week. I'm think about going stereotypical, which means Jap cars.
