Bah.
So, Tony has been driving the car for the last three week. Which means I have been stuck at home for the last three weeks. The van is operable last I checked. What happened was this. A few weeks ago, T drove the car because we had hot, hot weather. He was sweating his ass off in teh van. Its so big, that it takes forever to cool down. Plus, the gas. Oh the gas. So, I said Hey, no biggie drive the car. Well, then the next week, he just drove it, and then the next and so on. I havent really said anything. I asked him if he was to scared to drive the van, and he said no, he was fine driving the van, yet, every morning I'd get up and the car would be gone. I know at one point we were kinda broke (around the bachelorette party time) and we just dindt have the $60+ to put in the van. The other day, when he tried to start it, the battery had died. And he never jumped it. The other times when he's started it, it started.
It hasnt really been that big of a deal. I COULD drive the van, but, it will still on occasion die or not start. Same as before. Its not worse or anything. I think maybe he liked not being bothered by it. Fine whatever.
Well, its starting to irk me not having a car. I would like to have a car at least one or two days a week. We've been stuck in this house during the week for THREE weeks. Now granted, we havent made plans or anything so we havent necessarily NEEDED the car, but, still. I've not complained. I'v been shopping when T has come home, or he picks up things on the way home. Fine.
Today, I realized that we were down to TWO diapers. I thought we had more and we didnt. In this situation I would have just taken the van, but, he had the car seats and well the battery is dead. I called him a told him. Instead of being sympathetic or helpful he siad "Well can't it wait till I get home" Hmmm lets see 2 diapers till 8 tonight? Not likely. Plus J was outside swimming and we are out of swim diapers so the new one I had just put on him was getting really full. Normally, I am a very anal about ensuring we ALWAYS have stuff on hand, but, thsi one time I dropped the ball. I got pissed, and we ended up arguing, me in tears. Because I didnt ASK to be in this position ya know? If he would just take the van occasionally, it wouldnt be such a big deal.
On the plus side though the Depper he had in his car said that he'll bring his dad to the station to morrow and they'll have a gander at it (they rebuild cars) Sweet!! The guy thinks it what T already replaced. I guess you can get bad ones or something.
