Long overdue update....
I haven't been updating.. lol.. I always forget I have this thing and just end up venting to random people depending on their field of expertise ;) Anyway, I'm making this a picture post because I'm ADORABLE.
1. Car Problems - Justin and I crashed the PT Cruiser in January, on our way back from Chicago. It took until last week for the body shop to actually open the car up and assess that the damages were going to cost more than the value of the car, so AAA decided to total it. Fine. They just offered me $13k, and I owe $16k. Highly uncool...so I asked how they came up with that figure. They said Auto Trader.com. Well, Auto Trader doesn't have any comparable vehicles in my area (no Limited models witih Turbo engine and Nav system). So they're quoting on really shit PT Cruisers. And I went to list my vehicle just to see what it would quote at, and they said look at the Kelley Blue Book price. Which is $16k. I told AAA that and they're like "eat it, bitch, your information is irrelevant". So now I'm frustrated. It's been 1.5 months that we've been carpooling. Anyway, I rejected their offer and the next step is a 3rd party assessor. He can't POSSIBLY give me lower than what they were quoting. I'm assuming it's AAA's job to give the lowest payout possible on the first offer.
2. New Car - JEEP COMPASS!!!! Sexyyyyyyyy! Should be here in a month or two. We ordered it from the factory just the way we wanted it, and with lease payment/insurance, we'll be saving $100/mo. Oh, and AAA sent me an insurance cancellation letter b/c of the accident, and then sent me a renewal. RETARDED.
3. Roommate Drama - I got a roommate in November, Veronica. She's about 6 feet tall, blonde, pretty, and pretty SLUTTY. She needed a place to stay until June because she was on probation for her second DUI and couldn't leave the state. Her plan was to move to Connecticut and live with her parents. So she was a waitress, taking the bus to work. Then she lost her job. Then she got a new job at a strip club. Then she started driving (without a license). Then she lost her job at the strip club for prostitution (taking a guy home with her...b/c it's taking $ from "the girls"). THEN, on Friday, she took a full bottle of my muscle relaxants from the accident. And then called the police. Well, something told me that someone who was suicidal would take something that would kill her, not turn her into a big pile of feel-good. When she returned from the hospital, she told me "now I get to go home, just like I wanted". So crazy Russian bitch was trying to get out of probation the whole time, and her lawyer is letting her! RETARDED! And I'm out a bottle of muscle relaxants. Bitch.
4. New Roommate Situation - Do I want one? I kind of liked the $500/mo. Don't really want to get one b/c as soon as Justin gets a job, I don't need the cash or the hassle.
5. Justin Situation - I hate that he thinks he can be grouchy with me when he gets home and I don't have dinner on the table. What the hell, I'm a working girl. If you're SO freaking hungry that you're going to be bitchy, pick up some Taco Bell and spare me the drama. Other than that, I love him to pieces :)
6. Wedding Planning - ROCKING. You all know I couldn't care about this stuff less, but it's going well.
I've picked out my dress.
I've picked out the cake. Chocolate fondant with cream leaf embroidery, with little wires with hanging jewels coming out the top. I have pictures, it's pretty. But even prettier than it is, it's going to TASTE yummy. 1 layer of carrot cake with orange-ginger cream cheese filling, and 2 layers of banana cake with baileys chocolate ganache. Marvel at the delicousness. MARVEL!
Got me a ceremony site, reception site, photographer, and a string quartet for the ceremony. Now all I need is a DJ and to figure out tuxes. Oh, and tickets to Hawaii. That'll be pricy :(
