I'm sorry; I know what a drag it is to go from the relative freedom of having a car and being able to go wherever you want without questioning to...not that. I'd offer to sell you my car (for much less than $1000, because it's frankly kind of a crappy car), but you know, I'm in Maryland...

Anyway. I know it's tough right now, and we all have those days. But things get better, I promise.
