Taking a hint for now.

Steve and I made the executive decision to get vaccinated for the H1N1 virus. Since Steve is back at work now we have to go at night, no big deal. Yesterday morning I woke up early and drove with him to work then headed to the grocery store and grab some dinner supplies, enjoy my day and pick him up to head to the needle clinic. I get the bright idea to make a fancy dinner to surprise him when I picked him up. Dinner was looking awesome, roast pork with sauteed pears and melted goat cheese, roasted potatoes and grilled asparagus. I even warmed up the container so that the food would stay warm on the drive to his work.

Jumping into the truck with all kinds of warm clothes in case we have to wait in line all night I had no problems starting the truck, actually the problems didn't start until I ventured onto Deerfoot. Oh good. Then things started getting interesting, I got about 2 .5 exits down Deerfoot when the truck would no longer accept the gas pedal.

I managed to pull off the road into the shoulder, realize that I have no way of calling anyone as we have yet to re-hook up our cell phones. After a few tears and a couple of curse words I needed to think of a plan to call Steve and get him to get a ride home.

Flashers on and the truck locked I booked it to the closest place that I could get a phone book and a phone. While running down the side of Deerfoot I noticed that a car had pulled over and a nice lady was asking if she could give me a lift somewhere. Thank goodness I was running out of time. She dropped me off at the Co-op and they were able to help me. I got a hold of Steve and after much driving around we made our way back to the truck which Steve managed to drive home with out any issues.

So now we have no idea what is wrong with the truck. We will try again to get our vaccines but if there is yet another road block on that day Ill take a hint and debate if the shot is actually for me.
