My Joe got me an early birthday present! He got me a new computer and monitor to replace the suck-ass computer I had before. My monitor is bigger, too, and has a flat screen. Not a flat monitor, just a flat screen. It's so big and bright it almost hurts my eyes to look at it. On the down side, Joe got a new power supply for his computer and it was defective. In the process of letting him know it was defective it killed his computer. So that sucks.
My Freecycle group really paid off!! Joe's little egg car (heh, not my fault those ugly Metro things remind me of eggs) has some problems with the front tire/wheel assembly. Just one of the many parts we need was going to be $90. Then a couple days ago, I see this post offering a '93 Geo Metro with a blown motor. I told the guy I wanted it for parts and had it towed- which cost the same amount as one of the parts we need would have. This car is in WAY better shape than Joe's is!! It's a 4 door instead of 2 but other than that it's the exact same car, and in fantastic shape. So Joe is going to just switch the motors and some other things, instead of taking the parts off the 4 door. It's weird, everything wrong on one car is fine on the other....the 4 door has a crack in the windshield, the 2 door doesn't. Etc. Just, what are the odds?!? Maybe enough bad shit has happened this year we were due for something good. Now we just need to get the other car fixed. It's burning oil like there's no tomorrow. Any suggestions, Ike? LOL
I watched a neat movie last night, laughed my ass off. 'Holes' is pretty funny, I definitely recommend it.
"Once upon a time, there was a magical place where it never rained. The end." I almost fell off the couch at that point. You'd probably have to see/have seen it to get that, though.
My perv brother and sister (
vinegrette) made a scene at my grandma's tonight when my mom was reading Lauren an old nursery rhyme. He was laughing so hard he was crying, and Val was gasping for air. Damn them, they made me start laughing, too. It goes:
I love little pussy,
Her coat is so warm,
And if I don't hurt her
She'll do me no harm.
So I'll not pull her tail,
Nor drive her away,
But pussy and I
Very gently will play.
Hehehe.
Kids are so funny. I swear I am kept amused. OWen and I ran to Wal-Mart earlier, and it's kind of chilly here, so I wanted him to keep his coat on. I turned the heat on in the car, and he took the jacket off. I asked him if he was warm enough and he tells me:
"I'm warm and cozy and delicious as a bread."
Hahaahahah, wtf? Delicious as bread??? Where do they get this stuff?
