Ugh, of course I had to deal with snow on the first day of 2014. The good thing was that there wasn't much traffic since most people get the day off (not me!) I've been dreading the day when I have to drive to work when it's snowing and there's a lot of traffic. I go to work at 8 and even though I'm headed in the opposite direction of all the ( Read more... )

I got a new car today! The one I currently had was having transmission issues and it was only a matter of time before it would go kaput. I got a 2011 red Honda Civic. It was previously leased for two years by someone else, but other than that it's never been owned by anyone else so it's in really nice condition. I think the best part for me ( ( Read more... )

Last weekend I noticed one of my front tires was pretty flat. I was able to put air in it and drive home in it, but the next morning it was flat again. I had woken up at 7:30 to check it and called Dad because I had called him the night before and he told me to call him if it was really flat the next morning. So he came up and I helped him change ( Read more... )

Yesterday during work, Molly, Natalie, and Sammy Jo came in after they had left to tell me the tires on the left side of my car were getting flat. Great. So I went outside and went to look at them. They weren't totally flat, but definitely needed air. Since Mike, the cook, was going to the gas station on his break, he said he would help me put air ( Read more... )

I got a new car! Well, sort of. More accurately I inherited a new car. My dad got a new car because his previous one got a little dented from some hail damage, so he gave me that one and is going to trade my 2000 Mercury Cougar in. So now I'm the new owner of a 2002 Acura! The damage isn't that visible unless you're right up next to the car, but ( Read more... )

So it looks like my car needs a new transmission and it's going to take two weeks to fix it and it's going to cost $2500 to fix it. What does that spell? F-U-C-K-M-E! Well, there goes the rest of my Christmas money (and I'll still need to dip into my savings for the rest of the cost). I drove down there to get the stuff out of my car that I needed ( Read more... )

Ugh, my car has been giving me so much shit lately. Yesterday it wouldn't drive at all when I had it in drive and I could only get it around in D2. So today I drove to a place where they could look at it, praying to God that it wouldn't break down on me since this place isn't exactly close to where I live ( Read more... )

Arughghghghgh! So it snowed again today...I think this is the fourth heavy snowfall since the season started and so far we've accumulated a grand total of thirty inches. Seriously, if I never see snow again, I wouldn't be at all sad. I AM SO SICK OF ALL THIS SNOW! Yes, I know I live in Nebraska and it's fucking January, but still it's causing me ( Read more... )
