Thank God my credit card was declined.

May 5, 2016

I stopped at the gas station on the way home. I pulled up to the pump, and inserted my credit card. No. Your credit card is no good here. What?! I looked at the card and sure enough it was expired.

A guy(the Jump-er) had his car parked crosswise in back of my car, and he had jumper cables connected to a big-*ss truck that was blocking the roadway to get out.
