Why

Why on the last day of the year do my brakes go out in my truck?  There is no way to get the truck to the shop in time to get the brakes repaired today, so I will be without my truck for at least two days and maybe three days. I will have to take my car to work tonight, I hate to do that to my car it is not made to haul all the junk I haul everyday like my Tahoe is.  I carry a lot of books and crates of teacher gadgets  to work.   I guess I will have to do all of that after I get my truck back from the shop.
