SOS San Antonio Area! please help- Steering locked

Hi I really need someone who lives in San Antonio's help.
I own a '90 4Runner with steering locked. Anyone who has one knows what I'm talking about. I am currently as we speak driving from TX to TN to visit friends and family. I am driving my girlfriend's car. My girlfriend is using my car. She has somehow managed to lock the steering. It takes me about 2 seconds to do and I have tried to explain to her in about a thousand different ways to do it, but she can't seem to get it unlocked. Add that to the fact that it is the original key which is rounded and worn so that sometimes you have to jiggle the key to get it to turn, which seems that at this point it will be impossible for my girlfriend to unlock it at this point. As a result, please, if there is anyone in the San Antonio area who has experience with this or Toyota's or mechanical expertise, would you please go to my house to unlock it for my girlfriend? We would even be willing to give you $20 for you trouble.

This is a serious SOS! If there is anyone in the area willing to help, please call my cell. If you are seriously able to help, please call since I am driving cross country.

615-545-8237

THANK YOU!
Alan
