Sometimes I Just Sort Of Want To Slit My Wrists

[xifeng]

I took the car for an oil change this morning (finally) and asked them to take a look at the shocks and brakes. The shocks are fine, thankfully, but the front brakes needed new pads. Good-bye, paycheck! What fun we could have had together! Seriously, I would have liked to build up some savings or something, but obviously that wasn't going to happen this month. (Also, they came up with a whole laundry list of stuff that probably needs to be done, and I can't say I disagree with it in principle, but I don't have a grand to drop on the car right now, so I guess it's going to be little by little. I knew some of this was stuff that I was on borrowed time with already--f'rinstance, the battery is the battery that was in the car when I bought it, but I think I can nurse it through another month if I have to.)

Trip to Salem: Not happening this weekend.

Fun DIY project: Also not happening this pay period.

On the other hand, I did call my insurance company and found out that Depo is covered, so YAY. This is good as the impending Crimson Tide did in fact arrive and now I just have to make an appointment and get the prescription filled WHEEYAY. :DDDD

I really, really wish H were still around.

*hugs* :---; Aww bb, I totally feel your pain b/c that's what I'll be dealing with as soon as this month ends. I'm going to start giving my dad about $200 a month for covering the car insurance - well part anyway and I've got quite a few things to deal with my car and unfortunately, the tax man isn't nice to me so no extra monies to help out either *sigh*

♥ Man, nothing is cheap. I wonder how I can get more money. Without going to jail. XD

GUH CARS.
Yeah, I recently had my radiator replaced, nursing it a good year or more after it needed to be replaced badly. >.<

Good luck with the rest.
