We picked up the car this evening. It’s a Pontiac 6000 LE. From my Google search, it looks like it’s an ’87. Haven’t looked it over really good, but it pretty much looks like this one. It drives really well, bounces a bit while it’s idling. It’s not built to allow for much seat position [...]
Things didn’t work out to where I could see Twilight on opening night, so I saved it for my Birthday. Overall, I liked the movie. It wasn’t the book, of course, but for someone who’s read the books, it was still worth seeing. As for those who don’t know the story, I think it would [...]
We should be heading to Douglas tomorrow to pick up a loaner car from my dad. I forgot to call today to confirm that it’d be ready, but there’s really no reason it shouldn’t be. There’ve been two distinct sides to how I’ve felt about not having my own way to get around: It has [...]
Another year, another tagline. For now I’m sticking with some bits from a favorite song of mine, “23″ by Jimmy Eat World. “Amazing still it seems, I’ll be 23″ “Don’t give away the end, the one thing that stays mine.” You can listen to 23 over at Aftershocks. Of course, it’s subject to change should [...]
For me, I just really adore this song. It’s got a fantastic melody and lyrics. It doesn’t touch me 100%, but there are parts I always feel deep down. It’s also now the source of this year’s tagline over on Sweet Catastrophe. Enjoy! [Audio clip: view full post to listen] I felt for sure last [...]
From Tuesday on, I actually had a pretty fantastic week! I really needed the pick-me-up. I could babble on about these few days, but I’ll just hit some highlights. Tuesday, all I had was one class, and there we just sat while part of the class did presentations. After class I came home to find [...]
I just received this e-mail forward tonight: HEADS UP………………. I wanted to give everyone a heads up that if you tend to give gift cards around the holidays, you need to be careful that the cards will not be honored after the holidays. Stores that are planning to close after Christmas are still selling the [...]
The one upside to not having a car right now is that I have no way to go waste money. No gas to waste and buy more, no fast food trips, no running to the grocery store because I have a craving. It’s only been the essentials. Unfortunately, those paychecks were still from when we [...]
I guess you could say I’m superstitious, but it probably really falls more along the lines of delusional. I decided a while back that my 23rd year would be just….made of win. So now that everything is sort of falling apart right before my Birthday, part of me can’t help but think that after next [...]
I’m just rolling in the updates today…sorry! Just got off the phone with Daddy and he’s gotten the impression that I should be able to come out of my settlement with $20,000. I don’t know for sure where he got the idea, or how accurate it is, but generally he won’t throw information like that [...]
