The starter is fucked up on the Camaro. I called the repair clinic this evening and left a message. I said we (Morgan and I) are bringing the car in next Wednesday (first chance we'll have to get it to the shop) for them to replace the faulty starter, and to replace the knock sensor wire they broke. I'm sure they'll call first thing in the morning saying how they're going to charge us for the work. Jackasses. That's when I'll tell them I'll contact the Better Business Bureau to see what the recommend. Fuck that shit. We'd have been better off not paying the $137 to have the car fixed; at least it ran fine and started (99% of the time) when we needed it to.
I spent 3 hours in the hospital today. My Mom had to have bloodwork, an ultrasound and a mammogram. Yeah, she was happy.
The "Everything's A Dollar" store had green box spaghetti for $1 a box! They also have bubble mailers (Duck brand) 2 for a buck, and the 3.5 ounce Toblerone for a buck, too. Woohoo!
Get my start date, and meet the vice president of the company, tomorrow. I have to be there at 10:30AM, and Morgan has the Camaro, so I'm using the Montemobile.
There's something about a FWD car that takes all of the fun out of driving in the snow. Reverse donuts just aren't right for some reason.
Negative windchills for tomorrow; that'll be fun.
That is all.

Where Have I Been?
OK, apparently I live under a rock. I had no idea Portia de Rossi is a lesbian. Ha, guys, you don't stand a chance!
I have a cold sore, or to be more exact, 3 smaller cold sores that make up one larger cold sore. I should have known, though, since I'd been letting my lips get way too chapped before applying my balm. Thankfully I think it's at its worse stage today, and should be gone by the time I start my job later in the week.
It snowed.

For Those Of You
OK, for those of you who don't listen to my AudBlog posts, Morgan fixed the car again. While replacing the starter, they bumped the knock sensor and broke the clips that hold the wire in place on the sensor. Morgan plugged the wire back in, and the car runs fine. Good thing he's around to fix the fucking car.
Got a job, start next week sometime.

Go Fuck Yourself
I talked to Brian at the Camaro clinic, and of course he's trying to say the Camaro's current condition is totally unrelated to them replacing the starter. Bullfuckingshit. It ran perfect when we dropped it off Wednesday night, and now it runs like shit (from the second we picked it up from the clinic?) So we have to have it towed to the repair place, how I have no idea, since Morgan works all weekend, and I have no way to get to his house to wait on the AAA guy. This is fucking ridiculous. I'll probably have to wait until Tuesday to have that piece of shit towed down here. I'm back to hating that fucking car. I need a VW.
I've been trying to call my friend Jenny for two days. Her town is supposedly completely blocked by flood waters, and I want to find out if they evacuated or if they stayed. Last night no one answered, and today the phone is busy. Hmmmmmmmm.
I'm fucking hungry.

Not Interested
We're not going to the Detroit Auto Show. Don't fucking email me and tell me what a great time you had; I don't give a fuck.
I'm going to bed.

I'm Such A Whiner
Man, I jacked my neck up something good Tuesday. It was so bad last night I couldn't even talk without the left side of my neck hurting. It was the whole left side, along with my left shoulder. Thankfully, when I got up this afternoon, my neck and shoulder were much better, but still not perfect. What did I do? Try to sleep standing on my head?
That is all.
That is all.
It Never Stops
OK, so Morgan IM's me from work at about a quarter after 6 this evening. I was napping, so after waking up, I called him. Turns out the car is all fucked up. It has no power at all (he got beat by a school bus on the highway) and stalls everytime he stops or hits the brakes. Also, the check engine light stays on. I called the place we took it to and left a message for them to call me first thing in the morning so we can get the fucking car fixed. $137 to have the starter replaced, and now it runs worse than it did before they fixed the starter. I understand things happen, though, so as long as they take care of it like they should, I won't bitch. Too much...
That is all.
That is all.
Did I Wake Up In Florida?
OK, this is some fucked up shit. Not that I'm complaining, mind you, it's just fucking weird. I live in Northeast Ohio. It's the middle of January. It was 66 degrees today. I saw two people driving around with the convertible tops down on their cars (newer Corvette and Mustang.) Numerous motorcycles were out too. Now it's fucking pouring rain, and we're under a severe thunderstorm watch. This is really fucking weird!
Car is fixed. It was the starter like we thought. We're losing coolant because the freeze plugs are going bad, just like Morgan and Dave (the mechanic where Morgan works) said. $200 to get the freeze plugs replaced, because they have to drop the tranny. We'll get that fixed one I get a couple paychecks under my belt. It's not going to hurt anything as long as we make sure the coolant level is OK. Besides, with all this warm weather it's hardly leaking at all.
All right, I guess I'll do some laundry and probably take a nap. I've not slept for shit the last week or so; someone keeps me up all night watching TV and stuff.

Lady Luck Is A Cunt
So yeah, I think we're finally going to get ahead by a couple hundred bucks, and I can start paying people back money that I owe. Oh nooooooo, we can't have that. We go out this afternoon to go to Morgan's Dad's house to get photos of the Iroc, and what happens? The RS won't start. Won't turn over. Won't.Do.Anything. Finally we get it to start, and by this point we both know exactly what's wrong. The starter is giving us a big fuck off, and it's finally dying. Either that, or it's loose. Regardless, the RS is going to the clinic on Thursday morning for a new starter. To the tune of $150. Fucking shit. I'm still holding out hope the starter itself is OK, and it's just loose (much cheaper to fix; just tighten the bitch down and send us on our way.) With the way my luck is, though, the whole fucking thing will need replaced. I guess I'll have them check the coolant leak while it's up on the lift thingie, so that's good. I guess. You know, since we use a container of coolant every 4-6 days.
Someone shoot me?
I'm going to watch TV and eat pizza since Morgan's at school. Hopefully the car will start and get him home from school, then start again to get us to my house. Then start a final time to get over to the repair shop (clinic, LOL.)
That is all.

Wurd
OK, I almost have the new layout tweaked to my liking. I fixed the space problem by deleting the size 4 header codes. Now I noticed only two of my sidebar headers are red; the rest are the greyish color. Hmmm, something else for me to figure out.
Oh yeah, TheLawnBunny is back.
That is all.

That's Better
OK, it isn't perfect, but better than it was. Now I have to figure out why my footer isn't working, and how to remove the spaces from between the titles of my stuff, and the actual items (links, photo things, etc.) After that, I'll be set.
That is all.

Damn Right
I guess bitching to Sprint really did pay off. My first bill went from $89.50 to $59.00 in the last 4 days. Damn right. If it weren't for the $36 activation fee, my first bill would only be $23. Wonder if I can get them to waive that too, since it took so long for my phone to be turned on? I'm such an ass.
Yeah, I'm still up.

Rally's Sounds Good
I have the car, and Rally's has 99 cent mushroom/swiss burgers. Woohoo!
I have nothing else worth talking about.

Not So Much
I have a headache. I've had a headache since 4 or 5 this afternoon. I hate headaches.
I have the car for the weekend! Somehow I managed to con Morgan into letting me have the Camaro; I'm still amazed. Now watch, I'll wind up sitting at home all damned weekend even though I have the car. That's just how lame I am.
Today I went to Staples to drop off a couple UPS packages, and while I was there, I picked up a Staples catalog. Oh my, I really shouldn't have done such a thing. Did you know there's 24 shades of Sharpie markers? 24!!! I love the pastel colored ones, and everyone who knows me well is aware that I love pens, markers and especially Sharpies. I'm such a dweeb.
Morgan and I need to get photos of the Iroc. Seems as though Mr. Morgan decided to find some photos on the Interweb of a car that looks identical to his Iroc, and tell people (myself included) that the photos were of his car. Now don't get me wrong, Morgan does have an 89 Iroc-Z with 27K original miles. It's a gorgeous car, and matches the photos exactly. But still, he should have mentioned the fact that the photos weren't of his car, but a car identical to his own. Long story short, the owner of the car in the photos found our site and is now saying that we don't even have an Iroc, let alone a black with blue stripe Iroc. Oh yes, yes we do. Thing is it's supposed to freeze over tonight, and be icky all weekend, so how are we to get photos? Morgan tried getting them last night, but his Dad doesn't even have the car in the garage so it's covered in no less than a foot and a half of snow! A gorgeous Iroc sitting outside during the Cleveland winter. Pure silliness! But anyway, we will have photos ASAP just to prove we do have that car. (That's why the photos were removed from my Flickr account, and my Yahoo photo album. I'll replace them with photos of our actual car.)
The Camaro (RS) and I are getting along just fine now. I drove him home in the rain, and all was well. It was just at the freezing/non-freezing point though, so I was careful once it started raining. I did have to do a little back tire spinning about a mile from my house, though. The punks on the sidewalk were asking for it, so I delivered.
OK, I'm going to bed.
That is all.

The End Is Here
Don't believe me? I bring you a Dolce and Gabbana Citroen. Oh my.
Finally have my PCS Vision and camera stuff working on my phone. For my trouble I received a $10 credit and 50 extra minutes. The minutes are fucking useless since my nights and weekends start at 7PM, and I have 400 peak minutes a month. Assfuckers.

Blah
Still no Interweb/IM/photo uploading on my cell phone. This is way too much for me to handle; I better get one hell of a service credit for this shit.
I cleaned out my closet, again. Who needs 7 comforters? Apparently I think I do for one reason or another.
I'm going to add some pages to my blog, including a facts page and a page with a list of people I mention most on here. There's still a way to go on these pages, so look for them to appear sometime this weekend, maybe sooner.
I just had elk meat for the first time. It tastes just like regular hamburger, but leaves a nasty film on the roof of my mouth so that makes me not so much a fan of elk meat.

Service Credit, Bitch
Yes, I'm up at 3AM because I slept until a quarter of 6 this evening. Yes, you read that correctly. Morgan and I went to bed at 5 Sunday morning, and he had to be up by 9:15AM for work. So he gets up to go to work, and I was back to sleep by 9:45AM. I woke up once around 3PM to pee, then went back to sleep until a quarter of 6PM. Obviously I was tired or something. LOL
Isn't it sad that Morgan had never watched Clerks before last night? At least he seemed to enjoy the movie since we stayed up until 4AM watching the damned thing. LOL
Twelve days until we go to the Detriot Auto Show. I can't wait!!!
I spent a half hour on the phone with Sprint's tech support and my Vision services still aren't working. Thankfully I am getting a service credit, but still, it's been 2 days since I got the phone. I want to upload my photos all ready!
So for Christmas I wound up getting the tea set/doily/cookie mix (the cookies are rockass, by the way), a Pear VS body spray (from Hannah, Hope, Hayley and Hillary) that I use as a bedroom scent because it makes me itch when I put it on my skin (sucks cause it smells hella good), the license plate purse, the Zorro purse, a camera phone from Sprint, a Joe Boxer comforter (purple with zippers and pockets), a CD holder thingie and the Cruel Intentions DVD from my secret santa. All-in-all not too bad. Now if only Morgan would break down and get me these slippers for my late Christmas present (hint, hint) I'd be all toasty and warm once it decides to get cold again.
OK, one more whirl at getting my phone to upload, then I'm going to bed.

Happy New Year
Hope everyone had a happy, and safe, New Year's Eve. Morgan and I went to Turtle's house and then proceeded to the 704, a gay club in Canton (Turtle's gay.) We stayed there for about a half hour, then headed back to my house since Morgan worked Friday and was tired. But not before we went to Wal-Mart where I took photos with my camera phone! Sprint is being retarded, so they haven't activated the PCS Vision portion of my service yet. I can make/receive calls and SMS messages, but can't send any photos, nor can I reply to any IM's received on my phone. Of course the customer service center is closed today, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to get that straightened out. As of now, I have one photo of last night, and that's of Turtle at the 704.
That is all.
