So it dawned on me yesterday that I am driving a 6 year old neon with 132,000 miles on it. I know its a small piece of trivia, but one that will become important later on.
Yesterday, when driving home from work, my brakes nearly stopped working. Now, I am not an expert with cars by any stretch, but I am pretty sure you need those. Needless to say, I am in a difficult situation. It is sunday, no car places are open except firestone. I will ROT IN HELL before I take my car there EVER again, after the fiasco last time. I guess I will have to miss work and try to make it up again. I may not even make it up, I don't have time for everything this week.
Today, Matt is bailing me out. He said he could come get me, we'll probably watch the game and do the final walkthrough on the townhouse that I thoughtfully scheduled for 4:30.
My brain reminds me "RETARD, YOU DRIVE A NEON WITH 132,000 MILES, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU EXPECT?!?!?"
There are times I feel pretty darned intelligent. . .this is NOT one of those times. . .
