Life of a Creative Writing Grad Student [and knitter]

The occasional opining of a sleep-deprived grad student, with cheese.

Tuesday, June 28, 2005

Update.

Monday am: Car battery died. Maintainance jumped the car, I went to work.
Monday pm: Car battery died. Boss Man jumped the car, I drove to Pollard Ford.
Monday pm: Nearly died while being driven home - some people should never drive.

Tuesday am: No car, Co-worker picked me up.
Tuesday pm: Ford called, left message. Alternator shot; took out nearly new battery on its way to alternator Hell. Need alternator, battery. Will have to order them.
Tuesday pm: Called back; no Ford guy to be found. Told secretary to relay message: go ahead and fix the damn car. Est. $480. Insert swear words.
Tuesday pm: Boss Man drives me home. He lives across the street. Creepy.

Summary: Pissed off as all Hell. In no mood to blog, and angry at world. Computer battery acting up again. Furious. Why does everything in my life break down all the time? It isn't like these piles of crap aren't high quality.

More swearing.

End.

    Remember when the Walmart guy said there was nothing wrong with your battery? He was right. Your alternator was beginning to go bad. You are fortunate that it died when you were in town, not busy with school, and had people around to help. This is good experience for dealing with life. sr
