Stuck In Wyoming
Aug 30 2006

So… my car overheated due to some “bad gasoline” which in turn caused some minor problems which are changing my travel plans majorly.

I’m still in Sheridan, Wyoming [Population 15,804] which is the self-proclaimed “#1 Western Town In America.” Long story short, I’ve snagged a motel room for another night and I’m hoping (fingers crossed) to get out of here sometime tomorrow afternoon.

This means no Yellowstone. Which, actually, is ok with me. I was looking forward to it but really wasn’t going to have enough time to do all that one needs to do when visiting the National Park.

Today my car literally broke down at door of a Pontiac dealership. However, there’s much to be grateful for…

  • I have a rental car.
  • I’m in a great hotel.
  • I saw some buffalo and elk today.
  • I’ve got an Internet connection.
  • I’ve got cable TV.
  • I’ve got a book to read and some magazines to peel through.
  • Laguna Beach, Two-A-Days, and the season finale of Entourage (which I have yet to see in its entirety) all come on back-to-back-to-back tonight.
  • Sometimes you just gotta make due with what life throws at you. I’m good for now. Just hoping to get the car fixed before Friday (PLEASE Jesus!).

    Out.
