The Room 208 Blog

I got word that my father was ill. He was in the hospital, and although my mom said there was no need for me to come home, I felt I should be there. I have a fear of flying, and my car was in the shop, so I decided to rent a car and drive to my hometown. When I pulled out of the parking lot, a cd was playing on the car stereo. I was barely paying attention, but after I got on the main highway, I noticed it was about the basics of roofing. I tried to remove the cd, but it would not eject from the player. I tried to switch to the radio, but the mode button did not seem to be functioning properly. I attempted to turn the stereo off, but the power button was not working either. I would have pulled over and removed the fuse that powers the sound system, if I had known that it would not affect any other components of the acr that I may need to use. I thought I would simply turn down the volume and no longer need to listen to the cd, but that button, like the others, was not adjustable. I listened to the cd for seven long hours. It kept replaying, over and over again. My father was discharged from the hospital a few days later. I left, and once again listened to the cd for seven hours. When I returned the car, I told the clerk of the problem. I was refunded some of my money for the inconvenience.
