One of those days

2008.10.27

I’m prety sure I’m getting sick.  Near positive.  That’s not really the point of this post, I’m just tossing it out there to get extra sympothy ;)   Did it work?  Good.  So, I picked my car up today from the mechanic.  You know, whenver a mechanic says “Well, the good news is, you don’t owe us anything” you should just throw up your hands right then and there.  TRUST ME.  Why didn’t I owe them anything? Well, because they are cool like that.  But, on top of that, my damned head gasket is blown.  Which means, either I cough up $1,500 for a new one, to repair a car that has 175,000 miles on it, or, I get a new (very used) car.  guess what kiddies?  I’m going to have to hunt down a new car!!!  Shoot me now, please…
