Trouble follows me everywhere I go...

And I thought last Friday was exciting...

After class, I stopped at McDonalds for a bite before running various errands all over St. Louis. I'm next in line at the drive-through, and I'm flippin' through my cds, deciding what to listen to next, then there was this horrible, burning smell. I look up and there is all this smoke surrounding my car! A bush behind the intercom had burst into flames! I pull up to the intercom and the lady said, "Welcome to McDonalds, can I help you?"
"Yeah... um... I'm not sure if you are aware of this but... the bush behind the intercom... is on fire... and could I have a 10 piece chicken McNuggets meal with a Powerade. Thanks."
About 8 people came running out with buckets of water and hoses to put out the flames.

Never a dull day in the life of Erin.
