So two weekends ago my car was playing up so Dad offered to take it to Rick to get it serviced. This meant that I had to take one of either Fritz or the MG (and how is it that the MG doesn't have a name?). Because of parking at work, I chose the MG. That was a Saturday night.
Monday morning I go to it, and the engine doesn't start. Lokking around, I realised I had leaft the lights on for over a DAY. I can't believe that someone in the carpark didn't tell me. I mean the number of the apartment is painted very clearly in the car bay.
Anywho, I get to my neurologist appointment - Mum has to come and pick me up, and on the way back Mum and I consider phoning RAC - The thing is niether of us knew the MG's Reggo number. We come back to onslow towers to call RAC and get the number plate. And hit ourselves on the forhead. The MG's numberplate is along the lines of MG04. I couldn't believe we didnt rememmber it. I men there is the whole story as to why It is called that too. *sigh*
Then the RAC guy checks out the battery - Completely and utterly dead. So he starts to charge it. Of course the car, as soon as it has charge in it, realises there are cords attatched to its battery and it hasn't been disarmed. Hence the deafening Alarm that continued for about 10minutes whilst we tried to work the remotes to disarm the car.
On that thursday it rained - to the point that if I was in Zazu, I would pull over. But this car has windscreenwipers that actually work!!!
And the puddles - It was so good to go through them, and not over them and lose all contro!!
The When I got to TAFE it was all good. However, on the way back to the car that afternoon i noticed the lights didn't flash when I pressed the 'Unlock' button. The MG had decided to take its revenge! It took numerous pressing of numerous buttons to 'retrain' the MG. Hilarious really. And I couldnt talk back to it either - I couldn't say "stop being so mean Lady Blanche'', or I get the point Fritz' because the MG has no name. Here I pose a question:
What should we name the MG?
On that Friday, Sheeba came over and we watched Star Trek. Again. And the Gag reel. At least when you go into Space in Star Trek THERE IS NO SOUND!!!!
And Chesna said it was alright, which is the best compliment any Sci Fi Movie can recieve from her.
Speaking of Nut. I went to he 'Not-Graduation-but-we-put-a-Dr-in-front-of-their-names-now' cermeony Last Saturday. I can't believe people are gonna be calling her Dr Heydenrych. Or Dr H to save face :P To me, she is not going to be Dr any thing. Queen of the Universe suits her just fine.
I have been stressed lately over my tests and workbooks. Ridiculously stressed. I just want it to be over so I can actually feel excited BEFORE I leave for Europe.
More than ever, I want a dog. Whilst chihuahuas have grown on me (pun definately no intended), I still find that my favourite dog would be a Staffie. They are just so sweet.
Speaking of staffies, there was this ridiculously cute puppy at TAFE today. I thought it was a staffie cross, others thought there was corgie in it. It provided us with a nice guessing game untill we found the truth (Staffie x Rhodesian Ridgeback x Rotwieller) Which would make for the best puppy. Three of my favourite breeds rolled into one. At work we have two RotwiellerxLabrador's. The female looks like a Rotty, but is Lab size, whilst the male is huge (50-something kilos) and looks like a Labrador that forgot to stop growing.
There is a beautiful sweet cat at work that makes me want to have a cat - but my staffie will be first.
I am wanting to collect my DVD's back before a go to Europe, or at least know what I have where. (I had a reall craving for both Dinotopia and "Hush" (Buffy season 4) befor I realised I don't have either of them at the moment :P
Tell me if you have these or of you have others:
Dinotopia - Sheeba
Bones S1 - Jayde
Bones S2 - Jayde
Bones S3 - Britt
Buffy S4 - Dinusha
