have we discussed how much god hates me?

So, my car wouldn't start this morning. Luckily, I have a fabulous roommate who works across the street from me who could drive me into work today, but I'm kind of screwed as for the rest of my weekend plans. I was supposed to pick up Stew to get my computer in working order tomorrow morning, and then head to Towson for manduhchow's senior recital, and now I have to try and jump start my car tomorrow morning and drive down to see my dad. Where, hoping against hope here, I can buy myself a new car.

Now, if you're wondering whether or not I can afford to buy a new car, the answer is no. Definitely not. But I cannot survive without a vehicle.

This sucks big fat hairy monkey balls.

In other news, if I were still in college, I would have seen Goblet of Fire already. ALAS. Instead, we're going to see it next weekend when Racheal gets back from California. We have big plans for next weekend, oh yes. Lots of Marsathoning and movie-watching and hitting the town-ing, etc. etc. I'm very excited.

Though, I have to go meet my new sibling on Thanksgiving. I'm a little wary about that. But hey! Maybe I won't be able to do anything if I can't get a car tomorrow! :p


P.S. Because, did I mention how I, not two months ago, sunk $350 into my car for brakes and a new muffler? And how, not six months ago, I put almost $400 into it for a new battery and starter? ARRRRRRGH.

Hugs! Lots of them! And love and luck and all those other things that you'll need. I'm wishing them your way.

Thanks, you. This is really poopy. Being a grown up sucks!!!

I know, it really, really is poopy. And being a grown up does suck, but try to put it in perspective, at least you're not still living at home, or in high school, or too young to drive at all. Those things would be worse, right? *grins hopefully*
And you have good friends and we love you and we'll make it better somehowsortof.

Yeah, you're right. It could be worse. I think mostly I'm bummed about my immediate problems of not being able to do what I wanted to do tomorrow, and having to figure out how I'm getting to and from work tonight and Sunday. Hopefully I'll be able to afford a decently priced car, and then I'll be able to stop sinking so much money into an old piece of crap.

ARRGGH! An old piece of crap I just put $35 worth of gas in yesterday! GRRRRR. Okay, wish I hadn't just remembered that. :p

Anyway, I love you. :)
