An Expensive Amusement Ride

Yesterday was a pretty amusing day, well amusing/pretty sad. The day started out making cookies, from there having some lunch with a buddy of mine and then meeting up with another buddy of mine for a movie. Sounds like I am popular, but don't let it fool you!! In between leaving lunch and going to pick up my other bud, something happened. I really don't know how to explain it, but so you can kind of get an idea or a picture in your head I will try. I was driving and all of the sudden I felt as though I was in a popcorn machine, constantly bouncing. This might help, remember watching Ace Ventura and he's driving along constantly bouncing, yet not on a bumpy road, that was basically me (although I was not trying to be funny.) My abs were hurting from trying to keep me upright along with the constant laughing that I was doing. (Yes I was by myself, literally dying laughing) So I called mom and in between laughs managed to ask if she had ever been in a car where the struts or the suspension went out. She was like no, why? So I explained myself.
While getting this all sorted out, I needed to pick up my bud. So I did. It came with a warning though I told her that she may feel as though she's in a popcorn popper. Well I really don't think that could give it enough justice. On our way to her house we laughed continuously, I told her well it's pretty much an amusement park ride for free. Wow, was I wrong.
Took the car in and found out it was the struts in the rear that had blown, and was going to be 700 dollars to fix. (p.s. my car isn't worth 700!!)
Moral of the story.... once in your life you need to have your struts blow!!
