Well yea, it's New Years, and don't expect any Resolutions. Expect goals. Like to get a better job. Clean my room. Go to a 4 year college. Work out more?
New Years started out great... that night I was coughing and almost throwing up, and I've had this cough for... 4 weeks on friday! I called the doctor last Mon or Tues, and they scheduled me for this Thursday. I hope they don't dismiss it as a cold.
Plus, ball joints, brake cable, strut, tie rod oh my! For 150k miles my car sure likes to fall apart. The ball joint is my fault though, it's new but it turns out they changed the joint in the middle of my model year and I got the wrong one. First is to see if the auto parts store will take back the old one and give me a new one. Second problem is how to get to the parts store with my car on jacks. Third, it's too fucking cold to work on my car, I need a garage! Fourth, I want to do the strut at the same time, but as I'll be ordering the strut online it probably won't come for a week... Oh, and my brake cable's sticking and tie rods will eventually need to be replaced... fucking potholes.
And that list of events and likes/dislikes about the previous year I usually write 3-4 months after New Years? Fear not, as I'm compiling it now rather than later, and will have it up soon. Not that anyone cares anymore since hardly anyone's on this site anymore.
Oh yea, and this new years I stayed at my mother's house, popped a bottle of the bubbly, and scared the dog with those party poppers with the string you pull hard on. She never wants to go out anymore, and this year I kinda didn't either. The last time she dragged me out somewhere was 2005-2006....
