The plan:
• Drive car to get brake pads replaced for X amount of money, which I have.
• Drive car home
• Stop for fast food dinner and lunch food for tomorrow
The reality:
• Drive car to dealership, discover that being broke and putting off brake repairs means brake repairs are now 3.5X... so, you know, money I don't have.
• Decide to do one set of brakes with aftermarket parts for 1.5X now and will do other part later.
• Discover that aftermarket parts aren't in stock and they can't get them tonight.
• Plan on getting loaner for tomorrow so they can do the repairs tomorrow.
• Discover that I've lost license (okay, I knew this about two weeks ago, but didn't think I needed to light a fire under my butt to replace, after all I still have my state ID.)
• End up getting shuttled home (because, of course, no license means no loaner FML!)
• End up attempting to El to work tomorrow at the ass-crack of dawn in the very dark and very cold. FML A LOT MORE.
So yeah... the universe can fuck off right now. Things were going SO WELL yesterday. Yeah, okay 1st world problem and at least I have a job to struggle to get to tomorrow.
Send fic... or at least fic recs... preferably in Sherlock (John/Sherlock) fluff, humor, romance... but, you know... not up for Reichenbach fic... not at all.
