Default Very Sad Week for me and my Accord

So i took my car in for repairs at the beginning of the week, i need new brakes a realignment and what i thought was an 02 sensor. 2 days and 1600 bucks later i got all new brake calipers, rotors, and pads on all 4 corners. A new catalytic converter and a front and rear realignment. Last night I was out for a cruise with a few friends and as i went to accelerate from a red in first gear my clutch let go . Got it towed to a transmission shop and again I had to leave my baby. I cant complain though because the clutch, brakes and catalytic converter were all original parts on 238000km, its a 2001 so the thing is over 10 years old, i must say i am quite impressed it made it this for. Anyways I just thought i would share my heart brake over my car and the unfortunate circumstances hitting my hard in my wallet hahaha, I'm sure other accord enthusiast on here have had similar things happen and when just like to say I feel your pain. I'm hoping i will have the girl back this weekend and with all the repairs she should be as good or better then new cheers guys!

Well it was a bad time but at least the last part turned out a little better than what you thought.
