House Warming Party DISASTER!

Description: My very friendly neighbor who just moved into the neighborhood a couple blocks down just bought a big house and has invited me for a warm up party! i am so excited and i am just about ready to go, but apparently my car thinks otherwise! my car is making weird sputtering noises and keeps coughing like it is being choked! what is the damn deal car?? my new neighbor just called and is asking where the hell i am at! what do i tell her? my car is not cooperating? she will think i am just making it all up! this is freaking nuts! i never been so embarrassed! i need to move! this car is not going to do this to me not this time!
