We were young and in college and so she freaked out about how we couldn’t afford to fix the car at the time. She kept saying hopes this wouldn’t be expensive.
I kept he on the phone as she was not far away. I could hear the noise over the phone as well. I told her to drive it home(a few blocks) and I would look at it. I stood out in the parking lot of our apartment complex to wait while she drove up with her on the phone. When she pulled up, I told her I knew what the exact problem was. She asked what. I asked to get out of her car and walk around to the passenger side. Somehow she got the stem of a giant tumbleweed stuck in the door and was dragging the tumbleweed on the road as she drove.
She that people were waiving at her and point at her car so she thought something was seriously wrong.
I couldn’t help but laugh at my teary eyed wife. She hates when I tell that story now, but it’s too great.
