Overheating Betty overheats. Hence her name, Overheating Betty.
Tonight, my college room mate and friend Elizabeth is going to perform
at Secretly Y'all. Secretly Y'all is a story telling performance held in a
very hipsterish bar in Richmond. I have been planning to go see Beth,
as I called her 20 years ago in college, perform a story she wrote about
"Found". Beth and Secretly Y'all both reside in Richmond Va. , approximately
93 miles from my house in Afton. (if you assume goggle maps is correct)
I was about 10 miles from my house when Overheating Betty overheated
to the extent that as a responsible adult I could not drive 93 approximate
miles.
Ice was also falling from the sky and snow was on the ground, I was
pushing the remnants of adult behavior by even trying to go to
Richmond for a night on the town. Overheating Betty saved me from
a partying, college student minded descion to drive to Richmond (93
approximate miles) where I would inevitably drink wine and then drive back
to Afton on icy roads.
My apologies to Beth, and my thanks to my little red acura for being the
surrogate parent I obviously need.
