Who's the idiot that left the car running in the garage?

That would be me. I don't know what happened. I had a lot on my mind what with Crystal now deciding to move back to NM and our field trip on Thurs. and the Falloon reopening so I hurried home from my parent's house Wed. night to see Jake and pulled in the garage and closed the garage door. I grabbed my purse and phone, hopped out of the car, while it was still running and the lights were still on, and went into the house. The next morning I wake up at 6:50 to a gas smell so I go check the furnace and that is not it. I go in and tell Jake to get up and ask him if he smells anything and his response was "GAS!" He said he thought he smelled something last night but then didn't smell it later so assumed he dreamed it. I tell him to call the gas co. cause I have a field trip and can't be late (such a teacher) and jump in the shower. A few minutes later he comes in to tell me that he found the gas smell--my car was running and had been all night in the garage. I still didn't think I left it running. I thought maybe the autostart had been hit but when he was finally able to hit the door to open and get out to the car through all the gas and heat, my keys were in the ignition and were really hot because I had also left my heat on. I know I get the award for all time moron. So thank God we are alive--Payton was not with us that night and Barkley is ok. I don't know what I would do if something happened to Pay and it was my fault. We are all good though by some miracle of God. Till next time.
