Just my luck...

So I finally sold my old car (96 pontiac firebird). A buddy of mine wanted it, and drove down Saturday from Houston to get it. It's been running fine, but as soon as I sign over the title, we leave to get something to eat. Well...Murphy's Law being in effect, (can ya see where this is going?) it breaks down about 100 feet out of my apt complex. Something popped in the transmission, it seems to not go in any gear, and even in park it rolls freely. So I'm getting it towed this morning to a transmission shop, gotta see how much this is gonna cost and if he still wants the car after this...

At least it did it there and not in the middle of nowhere while driving home... I joked with him that she's upset that I'm getting rid of her...
