Stupid car
New Water Pump - $269.10
Brakes replaced - $262.76
Getting 1996 car winterized and tuned up because I need to make it last through the winter - $ 247.94
Spending $780 on my 9 year old car in the last two weeks - Priceless? Nope. Sad? Yes.
This has put a major crimp in my travel plans. I'm pretty sure I won't be able to go the bridge festival in WV next month. Sorry Glow Pop. *pout* I'm pretty sure I won't be able to make it to Tampa this year to see my surrogate family. Sorry Lydia and Jon. *pout*
Damn, I hate being NIW (not independently wealthy).

I'm sorry, Augie. If I had the extra money I would send it to you because you are my favorite older sistah and because I love you and because I want you to be able to travel and do the things that you want to do. Did I mention that you were my favorite older sistah? Because you are you know. *smooch*
I am your only older sistah. But thank you anyway. I'm gonna go and curl up in the fetal position in the corner. And suck my thumb. And feel sorry for myself.
Surprise expenses suck the most Augie. I hope you can at least make to Tampa. (But it is sad you are going to miss a chance to hug Glow Pop) Did I mention you were my favorite older sistah? Because you know you know. (See, it works better when the youngest says it)
Damn. I was trying really hard to win the Mega Millions last night too. If I had won, I would have bought you a new car. Bentley or Humvee, my dear???
Monsty - Yes, it does mean more coming from the youngest sistah. *smooches*
Rose - I was trying for the Mega Millions too. *pout* But *smooches* for the offer. You are too sweet.
Dear Bravie,
{whiney voice} I am thinking of dumping you and Augie because I don't get enough love.
Signed, Monsty
Dear Monsty,
And you wonder why the love has stopped.
Signed, Bravie
You're my NIW favorite.
*sits with Augie in the poor house*
To make matters worse I just found out I never transefered money to our checking when I went to pay the bills on the 10th...we in the hole for a whole lotta service charges. :(
Makes me mad, cause we may not have much money but I had it to cover those bills.
I am an optimist and I am sure something will work out for you and you will be able to go away!
I'm sorry to hear that Augie. ((((hugs))) You know, you are MY favorite older sistah too. (It works MUCH better when the ACTUAL youngest says it. :P)
You paid how much for brakes? *boggle*
