I've always been partial to mummies...they're just not hip anymore. Poor mummies

Do you love Night of The living Dead? Have you seen any of those cult movie magazines - like "Psychotronic"? It's a cool resource, but ordering videos is a big $$ problem.......

That's pretty much impossible...when I was 14, I was consumed with handling fireworks. Then I discovered girls, which was exponentially more dangerous.

I was taken to parties by my mother as a kid and I always felt horribly out of place and bored to tears... Think I usually ended up annoying the hell out of everyone there trying to get attention.


Which means, I have changed very little...

Your terrier looks as neurotic as mine. Just an observation. Oh yeah PS, you're absolutely gorgeous.

not having heard of Jiffy Lube in the UK I had to re-read your journal to check what it was we were all discussing

I can appreciate the whole sexist taking-advantage kinda garage thing, I get sorta the same vibe whenever I take a car in for any kind of work. Bike garages, on the other hand, don't seem to fuck about. Maybe this says something about the kind of guys who work in car garages and a good deal nicer things about bikers? Or is that just my bias

In my experience its about a 50/50 proposition that a mechanic is being honest to me. I'm not a female though and supposedly they take advantage of females more often than males.

Thankfully I have an uncle who owns a garage and I trust him. He's always telling me other things that need to be done or things that should be done. Like when I got my water pump changed I also got my timing belts replaced. It was because 90% of the work overlapped.
On old cars like ours (mine 89 Honda Accord) there is always things that could be done.

Usually the upsells garage have tried on me where things like chassis parts (tie rod ends, ball joints etc). Those things go all the time on old cars. I've had ball joints break moments after I've pulled of the highway. A few seconds earlier and my tire would have ripped off and done nasty things.

If you really want to know more about cars get the Haynes manual for your car they're pretty handy and they're like $20. If you lived closer I'd gladly tinker on your car for a fair price.

Wow, Crater lake sounds cool.....I need to do some travelin'! Good to hear you are better - did you fix your landlord? xoxoxo

see, the problem with having spent my youth watching assorted video nasties is that as soon as you say "Crater lake" I start imagining scenes involving mutant piranha, cannibal hillbillies, gelatinous blob things under the raft and people stabbing Kevin Bacon thru the neck from under the bed. I take it the reality is not quite that bad, huh

i got a new hampster
does that make you feel any better?

Its been five days.... Do you still hate everyone or are things looking up?

camping kicks arse... and it's probably waaaaay more interesting in your neck of the woods than here in the tame U of K

Our sink is plugged up too.

Is the Crater Lake you're camping at THE Crater Lake. The infamous really cool one caused by the giant meteorite in the middle of nowhere. Super deep right away?

damn if i was your landlord you'd have the nicest apartment in the whole world. i 'd keep making excuses to come over and do improvements. you wouldn't be able to get rid of me.

shit, i'll come over and fix that sink right now!

Have you had Smoked Salmon on Pizza? We do our own salmon in the smoker........I hope there wasn't a massacre! xoxo

I just found out my sink is leaking...I got a big ol' puddle of water underneath it. I have no plumbing skills.

your friday nite cannot possibly compare to mine. mine was pure rock'n'roll evil!
i sat and watched a bunch of computers so they wouldn't run away. then, i ate rican food, ate some raw cookie dough, and went to bed.

fucking rocking like a hurricane.

I always loved West Coast sunsets... When I lived in Coronado, Ca., it was incredible to sit on the beach at one of the local pubs in Pacific Beach (La Heina Beach House) and cheer and toast as the sun crept below the horizon... Many a fond memory from those days.

P.S.
Christopher Walken is incredible. I don't think I've ever seen him play a bad part... My favorite, of course, was the scene he did with Dennis Hopper in True Romance - fanfuckingtastic. And who could possibly forget his cameo in Pulp Fiction? He's totally rad to the very core. :
Wishing you a great weekend... Ciao.

thanks sweetie..i'll definitly try the papya ..you are a doll and so so pretty
xoxoxox

yeah, piniata etiquette expert Rodney Anonymous told me once that anything less than candy is like using the wrong fork at an expensive dinner party.

being an onion/potato/tomato lover, i would not have any personal objection to said piniata.

Wait a sec..We didn't hang out this weekend.

Too bad really but still.

hanagasaku?!?!?
