OMG, OMG, OMG. Scary shit. o.o
Drove home with no brakes all the way from Basehor 'cause I was like "Do I really want to pull over and wait on the side of the road for an hour and wait for dad? Or try to make it home."
I opted for home, because I'm a stubborn idiot. Like my dad.
I mean I made it home just fine, I just had to press on my brake pedal real good to get the truck to stop, but I scared the shit out of myself doing it. All because I didn't want to wait in the cold.
Luckily I kept a straight head and realized what was going on so I didn't end up rear ending anyone or crashing (thank god! >.< Stop signs are killer when you have no brakes.)
Then when I get home my parents tell me about how they always had to buy parts for cars when they were younger and old car wrecks or situations they had been in or knew about when their brakes went out. I think that they were trying to cheer me up, but it just scared the crap out of me. :D
The part that needs to be replaced isn't very expensive, so pa's gonna go buy some new soft lines tomorrow. I swear, I just have the absolute worst luck with cars. First my accident last year, then the Taurus broke down last month, now this. This just makes me hate the fact that I have to drive. -Sigh-
