Why is it, lately, everything I say is gonna happen, happens the opposite of what I said?
Criminy.
The car is here and the kids aren't. Vic runs well.I'm gonna keep driving the Bird a little longer, anyway.
I think. Anything else backwards?
Oh.
Yeah.
I still need to get the house clean.
*rolls eyes* The reason it's still not done is because the car is here.
That's also why I was late to work last night.
I knew I was gonna be at 9:30, so I called and told 'em and my favorite boss man, the one I work with every day (the one who took over hosting when that bitchy little woman left), I think I've called him Sweetie on here before, anyway... he was cooking for yet another cook on vacation, or maybe the same guy the King of Weinie World was workin' for Tuesday... any-friggin'-way, HE was cooking when I did finally get there and he so didn't even give a shit that I was late or anything...
See why I call him Sweetie?
Like he said when I called off when Storm died... "You never call off or anything, so don't even worry about it..." He's a good guy to work for.
A really good guy, though.
Not like that last asshole I thought was cool, who kinda was, but ultimately wasn't. ???? Okay, back to the point, as if I had one. Vic's here, and it took til 10:30 to get him here, mostly because of waiting til dark and having to fuck with batt'ries and jumper cables and shit... V-8, overhead cam (whatever), airbags (and no, not just when I'm sitting it in, smartass), tilt steering, cruise control, excellent stereo, nice interior, bucket seats, "challenging" rear doors (oh, most definitely a cop car at some point), hell, it's even got (hugely embarassing) red flashers in the trunk screwed to the lid, so when ya open it... boing, boing, boing, boing... ugh. They gotta go.
So do the decals and all the dust-n-dirt.
Oh and it needs the driverside window put back into it's track, but the air works, so.... Found that out when I also found out the controls work. It goes up and down just fine, but ya hafta hold it from the outside to get it seat right, but it does.
125,000 miles.
1995.
Nice body.
No cancer spots or anything.
Oh, and I could do surgery inside this thing with all the interior lighting it's got.
Goddamn.
Turn 'em all on at once and you could get "bulb"burnt. It's even got those two pushbar things on the front bumper. When my headlights swept over it on my way to work last night, I said outloud to myself, "Oh Jesus. There's a copcar in my yard."
There is, too. *shaking head*
Talk about "have some irony"...
Goodgodfuckall. Ya know? Okay, on to the rest of it...
In order to be legal with this car, I need $250 to start.
That renews my reg, pays a fee or two, I think, and starts my own insurance. After that, I have, I think, 10 days to get it inspected.
Then, I have to pay for whatever repairs they deem necessary to pass the thing.
The inspection is gonna be damned near $100, itself, let alone whatever repairs. So, what I'm gonna do, is break it all down into component parts and do it in steps and keep driving Chris whilst I do it.
First, I'll have til the beginning of September to get the insurance money.
Then, I have til the end of September to do the reg.
Then, I have til the end of October for the inspection on the Bird.
So, by that time, I'll have a renewed reg, insurance going and only hafta come up with the money for the inspection and repairs, but I'll let the Bird go and switch to Vic then.
Also by then, I'll have had my Fridays back for a while and the agri-tainment shit, too, so it ought not be too hard, I hope. Easier than coming up with it all right now, that much I know for sure. 'Bout the only other thing I know for sure is that ya do too have an accent.
Yuh-huh.
Shur'nuff do too.
In fact, you even said "Ey?" at the end of a sentence the other night.
That was so completely cool (and Canadian), I forget what the sentence itself was, but it was something affirmative or positive and you said then, "... ey?" *grin* So cool. Ey? *gigglin' my ass off, now* Anyhoo...
Off to go... play at cleaning the house while ignoring the copcar in my yard. Peace, y'all...
