In a jiffy...

SO...most everyone knows that I drive a 98 VW beetle. A lot of you know that my bug is a very SPECIAL car....it has soooo much personality!!!!
For example you can't put the key in the driver side door or you will never get it out again, this I learned about 3 times and after much prayer, tugging, saying not so very nice words(stupid, retarded car, and stupid) I was able to finally wrestle the key out of my door. And then a couple of weeks ago my keyless entry which would only sometimes work completely stopped working so this requires me to always go to the passenger side to unlock my car. Another example is that I have a hanging front fog light...it's really pretty:) most people check it out and make sure they mention to me that i have something hanging off my front bumper which is just barely hanging on.
SO...I went to get my oil changed today...Pull up and the FIRST THING I SAID was DON'T PUT THE KEY IN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR...anyone guess what happened?! These 3 oil people were smarter than me and put the key in the driver side door. mmm hmmm...so a little while later I look out the door window and see this guy struggling and trying to figure out how in the word to get my key out of my door. :) I let him try to figure it out for a little while. One the guys finally came & asked me..."is there any special trick to getting that key out of the door?" I went out there and tried what I usually try but no it was NOT coming out! Okay so then one of they guys tries again and they whole key thing, where you put the key in part of the door, came off my car...hmmm...that's interesting now my car will sports a new feature no key hole on the driver side and just a hole. LOL so by this time I'm getting really embarrassed because of my special car...lol NOT to mention that I don't have a hood holder thing that holds the hood up while they change the oil because one time i was doing something, i think my cousin was helping me check the oil and the stick was up and instead of putting it down, I just slammed the hood...lol so that went missing. Anyways they finally got the key out and everything all set and ready for me to go....they guy went to open the door for me and can't get it open...LOL

OH some more special things bout my car...I'm missing a back reflector thing on my rear bumper, I don't have an antenna because i tried driving out of the garage one time and closed the garage while i was backing out, and in the winter time you have to charge it cause it gets too cold. :):):) LOL And I drive in silence most the time cause my CD player gave up the ghost. Also, the breaks have a special built in vibrating massage when ever you press on them and you kind of have to shift with the gas even though it's an automatic...those of you that have driven my car know what I'm talking bout. I had that checked out one time and they said it was normal..so whatever...:)

SO...I'm looking for a new car....:) Something a little more reliable...but I think i might be sad when I get rid of my bug...so many fun memories. It's kind of fun when you pass someone and see them slug someone:)
This is her on one of her better days...:)
