BAH! I want my caaaaaaaaaaaaaar!
I took it into the body shop on Tuesday and had a rental until it was fixed on Friday. So I left early to pick it up before I went into work and knew something was bad when they had to jump it at the shop. *sigh* Sadly, this will be a reoccuring theme, folks.
So I get home to get dressed and get back out to the car to go to work. Stick key in the ignition and---click click click click! What? There's no Vroom! I want Vroom! So I call up work and see if Joe's there since he knows where I live and would certainly give me a ride. He's not there yet. *sigh* So I get my supervisor on the phone and explain the situation and she comes to get me (thank goodness I live five mins from work ^_^). I call Momself up on Saturday before Joe picks me up for work (I slept too late) to let her know of the situation and she gives the message to Boss. Boss informs me that it's not the battery as he bought a brand new one and put it in and it still didn't respond and he tells me to call up the body shop on Monday.
So, Here it is Monday and I called the body shop and they said they didn't do anything mechanical to the car, everything was cosmetic. Essentially, they say they can tow it and look it over but if they discover it wasn't their fault, I have to pay lots of money for the tow and repairs out of my pocket. Grrrrr.... So I call up Boss and inform him and he comes by to try and jump the car since it worked before. We leave it running for ten mins and nothing ever jumped. He called my insurance guy and told him the situation and the insurance guy said that it all boils down to I drove it in there fine and left only when they jumped it. Something they did had to've occured there.
SOOOO...... my car is going back. And I'm not happy as I hate relying on others for transportation. As it is, I had to borrow my grand-aunt's car for tonight since I picked up an extra shift this week and Joe doesn't work tonight. >.< I'm angry about my car being dead.
But, on a good note, my Severus Snape finally found a home! *dances* And one of the Mod's of the game might be joining Hogwarts No More as my Neville! *dances* Something good came of my sleepless night, at least.
Oh look! Bethany just doused the Metatron with flame retardant chemicals *laughs* Alan Rickman rocks... "I'm pissed off is what I am!" XD!
Oh! And just for a reminder:
