Thanksgiving was all right, had plenty of food though the greens actually ran out pretty quickly. My dad made it home after all, he's gone now but he and my mom particpated in the whole Black Friday thing by buying a car. That was probably a good thing seeing as how they sold one of their cars last month and all that's left is the van and the Linclon, which stopped working yesterday as my dad was driving back from the dealership, oddly enough. We just took the car to the shop on Wednesday, it's been off and on these past few months so my dad said he'd take it to a Lincoln shop to get it looked at when he comes home again. This means I have to take the van to school now which sucks muchly. I should be grateful I have a car to drive but I don't like taking it out. I had a not very good experience with it in the beginning of the semester and it's hard to park as the spaces are pretty tight and frankly, it's kind of embarrassing to drive around. The semester's almost over, thankfully.
My dad actually said he'd get me a car if I saved up a couple hundred. Of course this means I have to get a job which is something I've wanted to do for a while. I couldn't though as my parents wouldn't let me work until I could drive and I didn't get my license until my last birthday so it's really their fault I couldn't work. I suppose I could get a holiday job but I was thinking that I could get my wisdom teeth pulled out over the break. One of them has partially come in and it's been bothering me for some time now. I'm not looking forward to it but I heard it gets worse the older you get.
I suppose I ought to be used to a bit of pain as I'm always managing to injure myself in some way. Like recently, the fence closed over the back of my heel taking most of skin along with it, needless to say it was quite painful.
I thought I had a pretty strong immune system but I actually have a cold. I haven't had one in ages, figures it would happen over the break. I went through the whole sore throat, congested nose bit and now I'm on sinus pain. Guess I ought to start taking vitamins everyday. I don't want to get anything worse, I still remember the horrid cough of early '05.
Okay, I think it's time to wrap up this up. I'm a babbling kind of mood.
