The Car Saga, part II
May. 3rd, 2007 03:58 pmI know y'all just couldn't care less are all wondering how the madness is taking its toll.
Poison Ivy: dodged that bullet, whew! Still getting psychosomatic itches, but no bumps
Sodden moldy insulation: thrown out
Lawn company: Fixed! Huzzah!
Gutter status: unknown
And then... there's the car. Poor Eddie is having a bad time of it.
Long story short, the technician overtightened something which was A Bad Thing and the best way to fix it was to get a special tool from someone who worked at a Subaru dealership. So they got the tool and fixed one side of the car... but when they went to the other side to even things up, the tool snapped.
So since I made a big fuss about hating the minivan on account of I hated the minivan, they're renting me a smaller car (at their expense) to toodle around in until this is fixed (we all hope tomorrow).
Part of me is relieved that someone else is having a worse week than me.
In the meantime, is it wrong how funny I think this is? Or this?
And continuing the perverse humor streak, the Life on Mars episode by episode slash guide Added not so much because I'm that big on slash as because it's that funny.
