so, my car will be towed before sunday! AHH!!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! FOUR EFFING YEARS. This month makes four years. I got a super awesome deal with this guy at Speedy Transmissions on Sandy Plains. He'll do my transmission and fuel pump for $1900. That's after tax. So long as I pay cash only. Fine by me! Also, he'll either repair or replace (again, I'm a newb and a girl, I dunno the exact words used here) the spark plugs for $30 and then put oil in the cylinders and rotate the engine (something like that) 30-40 times so there's a safe start-up...for free. Ok, I may say a lot of bad things about mark that are true...but he did jew the guy into this deal. Scotsmen and jews are said to be equally as shrew in negotiations. I now know it to be completely true. Also, I signed up for AAA. Something I'll need. And b/c I joined, towing is super cheap. It'll be like $25 to tow it there. And Mark'll spot me on the battery until I get paid this upcoming thursday. It'll be a shit check, considering I was out for two weeks and only had 12 hours pto to spread during that time. But, it's something. Just enough for me to pay for the battery and my rx. So I'll be having a car very very very soon. Which is great news.
B/c...well, mark made me sign a contract. Stating that I have to take full responsibility for that isuzu rodeo, and behave properly or it's ok if he evicts me. O.O Yeah...he went there. Now, Paul and I are incredibly happy together and have been wanting to move in together. But he had to get a new job and a new car. Both of the previous ones literally crapped out on him. So, to save a bit of money on rent for a bit, his sister (who lives up in town lake) was gracious enough to let him live there for cheap for a while. He does not intend to stay long at all. To give you an idea of how much he actually gets shit done-he was unemployed for only a week. So he means it when he says it's not for long. Now, he was ranting to her about the whole situation and how I've been basically spending my time crying at the house b/c Mark is almost desperately trying to push me out. Honestly I want to move out. But can't do jack without a car. She said in passing to him that if I have to move out while he's living with her, they won't mind. That's incredibly sweet of her and she's an amazing person. But I hope it doesn't get to that point. I'd hate to intrude, y'know? But what paul's plan was: live with sister for a bit, save up for better apartment, live with courtney. I'd love for that to happen. I'm almost 21 for chrissakes. I need to move out. But I am NOT leaving...until my mom is fully recovered from her neck surgery. All this arguing around the house has not helped her in the healing process. So, hopefully, I can have a car, and then hopefully get a job at the new sephora in the mall and hopefully get full time, period. actually make stable hours, make an actual living, and hopefully they pay better than blockbuster! I mean, me + car + full time job at makeup store= happy courtney.
I'm just glad that I have an option if I am indeed evicted or kicked out. All this bullshit has been making her cry all the time and me as well. I'm sick of being unhappy. I apologized for shit that I don't think is true for the sake of peace for my mom. He royally pissed me off tonight and I didn't tell him to go suck something. I behaved. For mom. Otherwise I'd be telling that jerk what I really felt. He's just so overly controlling and the sick part is, he loves it. He won't admit to it. But when I ask if (at age 20, mind you) I can have a friend over, and he says yes but only if you sign this contract, there's a sick control freak. For serious. Ok, I'm done ranting/airing out some dirty laundry. But I just thought everyone should know what all has been going into this car issue.
So now you'll know why I have a reason or two to be super pissed lately. He's just been a tyrant and paul is getting pissed b/c all he wants is a happy girlfriend and that isn't what he's been getting. I'm happy when I'm with him, but usually he's talking to me after or during crying, or picking me up after being depressed in my room.
Btw-I totally punched mark in the nuts. we had a small fight. but I totally got him more than he got me. is it sad to say I enjoy the fact that I finally got to deliver at least one of the many things he deserves? I'm not happy for myself that I started it. But I got him in the nards. That is a small simple win for me. And don't worry about me, I'm fine. He just held my arm pretty hard and shoved me onto the couch as a defense. Somehow the top of my right foot got bruised a little. So it hurt to walk but oh well. I apologized for starting that fight, but I'm never apologizing for hitting the nuts. He fuckin' had that COMING. Be a tyrant, get hit in the sack. Boom. Done.
Well, I think everyone who cares knows enough now. I am hoping to move very soon. And to have a new job that ACTUALLY PAYS ME. And have a car! And then celebrate my 21st! Yay!
wow, a really angered/depressing entry ending on a yay? I swear I'm not bipolar.
