Last Friday my boss gave me 2 free movie tickets for working so hard and filling in for people so Jace and I decided to have the date night we missed last Saturday from the truck dying. We got ready and Jace called Texas to put on names on the list again so we wouldn't have to wait. We decided to take Big Sexy too since he was fixed and had been working really good. We were so excited to have a real date night and to take the truck too, but we didn't make it out of the parking lot. We made it out of the parking spot and about 20 feet in our parking lot before Big Sexy died. I couldn't help but laugh since it was the same situation as last time just in our parking lot. Jace was able to pull off to the side of the parking lot out of the way and try to get it started again but no luck for a couple minutes. Big Sexy would start and run for about 20 seconds then die. It was like it was getting choked. But Jace was able to back it up finally into a parking spot. The longer he let it sit the longer it would run. So he let it sit a little bit, would start it, put it in reverse, and gas it. We are so glad it worked. It took about 35-40 minutes before getting the truck in a parking spot again but no one came out to see what we were doing and we were reving it up pretty loud and cars drove by too. What a rude world we live in. Even last saturday 3 cars pulled in the parking lot we were broke down in and one guy even waved but no one stopped to ask if we needed help. Our hood was up and the tonneau cover was up and nothing. Not even the 4 or so cops driving by stopped to help. Kinda made me sad to see how inconsiderate people can be.
Anyway, after getting the truck a the parking spot again we jumped in the car and went to Texas. The food was great and we didn't get sick since we thought maybe the truck was trying to keep us from eating there and getting food poisoning or something. We even had left over for lunch the next day. :) We saw The Switch which was really cute and funny. I enjoyed it lots. It was nice to have a fun evening even though Big Sexy still needs a new fuel selector valve.
