I hate lemonade!

Really...I mean REALLY!?!?!

So I really think some higher power wants to see how much it will take to 'break' me :P. I was driving home today talking to my fiance. He was headed to the store to get some necessities. I was telling him about something and he says "what the hell?!?" I said what's wrong. He said his car just died. I'm sorry...what?! He said "I was sitting at the red light waiting for it to change and when I went to go nothing happened. . .then I realized the car was off. I tried to restart is and it wont go." OK he just replaced the battery and starter about 4 months ago. The noise I heard in the background was the engine was trying but just couldn't turn over to start. So there he is stalled on a fairly busy street at 5:00PM and I'm still 45 minutes away because I had to pick up my race packet for Sunday. He decided to call AAA and get it towed. I got to him about an hour later and still no tow truck. When he finally showed up, the tow driver said "that sounds like a fuel injection issue". Oh, that's just freaking fabulous!!!!!!!!!!

So we tow the car to my house because we have NO IDEA where to bring it. No places were open at this point to call and see if they even worked on his type of vehicle. More than likely they do but we didn't want to take a chance. So we get to my house and my beighbor sees us outside with his hood popped. He said "hey you having car problems". Hi neighbor...yea :(. He said let me take a look. He's a mechanic, yay! He said he thinks its the timing belt (CRAP!). He said he can see the cam shaft and its not spinning which usually means timing belt. The only good thing is that if it did break he wasn't doing 90 to nothing on I10 he was just idling at the light. That might have saved his engine. So now we will be bringing him to some mechanic soon to see if it is the belt and how much. I know for my little car its about $400 to change the belt...in his SUV I'm sure its much higher. . .*sigh* We can fix my car...affordably (under $200) and now his car may have SERIOUS engine issues. Why why why why!?!?!?!
