This cupcake is sub-par
Ok, so I'm a glutton. For breakfast I had: 2 fried drumsticks from QFC. For snack: beef jerky - cardboard style (my favorite-next to my Mom's). For lunch: a spinach and feta croissant pastry, a tall latte, and a mini-cupcake.
Let me tell you about the cupcake. The frosting, which ususally tastes like chocolate mousse, tasted like playdough. No wonder it was the only white with brown frosting cupcake left in the window. F'in reject.
Anyway - work has been busy and I have been busy collecting overtime. Also been painting with L and watching Lost and Firefly.
(Don't worry, BP, I'll call you when/if there is a real painting party at my new place. )
Other than that, the days have been going fast, and thank goodness because I'm low on cash. This is the reason why:
I also have that dent on the driver's side door that is becoming a nuisance as I now have to force my driver's side window to close using brute strength (and sharp wit).
I went to my secret volvo mechanic (who remembered me, so I must be a regular now) and he told me it'd be cheaper to replace the door. It'll be about $130 bucks if I don't have to paint it. I don't have that kind of money laying around though - gotta save it for surprise bills, so I'll just live with the dent for awhile. I'm also supposed to try and get my suspension checked out which means a trip to Midas where I got my muffler fixed so they don't charge me for a diagnostic fee. Bollocks.
oh well - once I get into my new place I won't have to drive 30 min to and from work, I'll use my feet. And maybe I'll steal T's bike, but I haven't asked him yet, so don't tell him. I guess then it wouldn't be stealing...
hmm. well in the grand scheme of things - we're all just dust, so whatever. (<---that was really just an excuse to link. I like space and shiny things.)

what is your volvo mechanics contact? i am desperate to find a mechanic in or around new orleans. --carrie
I dunno if I can help you about New Orleans, but the place I go to in Seattle was Daisywagon (listed on this page) and this other used parts place in my neighborhod. If you're truly interested in their info, let me know and I'll get it to you. :)
I hope that helps!
Sadly I don't drive my volvo anymore because it broke down at an opportune time for my parents to help me out with a new-ish toyota camry. :( wait - I'm sorta happy about that. :D
I miss my little tank though...
