The pouting will last for days upon end, making navigation difficult and communication almost impossible with my little car companion.
But why is she refusing to speak to me? Have I taken too many wrong turns lately and she's tired of having to recalculate?
I checked her mute button, and it isn't that. I have her on 80% volume, which is plenty enough to be heard. She should consider herself lucky because few people sound in at the 80% level in my life.
I'm nervous because I'm not sure if she's still under the 30-day easy return policy at Radio Shack. But, even if she is, how can I say good-bye to my little friend who's successfully gotten me to all of my destinations in the last month? A geographical bond has formed between us, and bonds formed over topography are very hard to break.
