Trapped Inside My Own Car!
I was driving down the lonely road when suddenly my car quit. I tried everything to get it going, but nothing worked. Now, I'm stuck inside my own vehicle with no indication of help. The sun is beginning to set, and I'm starting to feel scared.
My cell phone battery is almost gone, so I can't even call for assistance. This whole situation is horrible.
I just hope someone notices me before it gets too night.

My brain feels like it's melting and I just want to scream! I can't even remember if I {locked myself out{ before, but this time it feels way worse. Maybe I should try calling my roommate... unless they're just as clueless as I am.
