Bleh. I feel stressed out today.
Today begins the journey of unknown length, which stars me, playing a hippie with only a bike, and no car. As you may or may not know.. my car was broken into, and half ass stolen a while ago. Well things have been okay since then, because it was warm outside and I didn't mind riding my bike everywhere. It was actually kind of nice to ride everywhere, but somewhere in the back of my head (even though it needed to be fixed) I had the "it's okay, you still have a car if you need it" thoughts.. Well, now that it's cold and rainy every day, I thought it'd be a good idea to have it fixed. I got it towed to a mechanic this morning to see about getting it repaired. Just got a call from them.. to just get it back into running condition it'll cost me about 1500$. Not worth it, says I. So.. I have decided to donate my car to charity. I'll be dropping off my title tomorrow morning, and heading over to the mechanic to say good bye to the car that has served me well for the past however many years. As the car leaves, so will alot of the memories I've had with it. My sister told me about how she got really upset when she had to get rid of her old beat up volvo, because so many important things had happened to that car, and now I kind of know how she feels. It's kind of funny really.. the logical part of my brain is going "It's really not a big deal.. you've been living for the past 5 months or so practically without a car.. nothing will change." But the not so rational part of my brain is going "OMG YOU HAVE NO CAR NOW!". I guess it's not so much that I don't have a car, but what that translates to.. which is getting another car at some point. Which means I'm going to be spending at least 5 grand here in the future. I can do that no problem, but it infringes on a lot of other plans I have going on right now, so it's really just a big pain in the ass.
So long, good ol' Honda. You've taken me through relationships, through crazy 20 something' hijinx, and you took me all the way across the country to my new home. You'll be missed.
In other news.. I got an A on my mid term in my computer science class, which is nice because Im' continuing my legacy of never ever studying for anything ever. So with that in mind, i don't mind missing a few questions.
