So tonight should be another interesting night. I have been listening to Mnementh snore for about the last 1/2 hour, and I'm in the living room with the t.v. on!
Hopefully it will quiet down by the time I go to bed.
Today it took Mnementh 5 hours to get home (usually only takes him 20-30 minutes). Yea, yesterday we took our Saturn to Aamco to get the brakes done, on the way there my truck died, so he bought a new battery and it seemed to be running better. He took it to work this morning and I guess it didn't do too well, and it died on him about 10 minutes after he left work. After a lot of calling around looking for someone who had AAA, and talking to aamco about getting the Saturn back that day (they called round 5 to say it was done, but I didn't have a way to get to the shop before it closed at 5:30) Mnementh's dad came down and helped him put in a new alternator in it at an Office Max parking lot. Hurray for Mnementh's dad, he saved us $230! Aamco wanted $361 to put a new one in and it only cost Mnementh $130 to buy a new one and put it in with his dad. We lucked out cause we had the money, although Mnementh wasn't too happy about spending that money because we had been keeping it in an envelope labeled Wii Money!
Anyway I woke up this morning after hurting my shoulder while rolling over, to find that I was pretty sore from my physical therapy on Monday. Not too bad though, I'm looking forward to going again tomorrow (today I guess). The thing that sucks though is that I really wish I had skipped this semester at school (I didn't know I was having surgery when till after school started). After missing a week right after surgery, and not really being able to take notes the way I should, and just being very uncomfortable at school period, I wasn't doing too well, but now with pt, I'm going to be missing a ton of class cause most of my pt is scheduled right before or during class. I think it's too late now to drop classes, plus that would be a total waste of money (workers comp won't reenburse me for the $2500 loan I had for this semester), so I'm trying my best to pass my classes. It pisses me off cause I wanted to do well this semester, I was going to really try cause I'm sick of school and just want to be done. But if I'm not working over the winter break I might try to do some school them, I like shorter terms better, kinda makes it easier for me to stay concentrated cause I know it's going to be over soon.
On another note, I get to have dinner with the lovely Koala and the very fine CineMonk tonight. Makes me happy, haven't gotten to hang out with them in awhile and I get to see their new place.
I leave for Idaho on Thursday night, As of right now, I am going to a Halloween party for my mom's work on Saturday night, but apparently I get 3 drinks free, so it's all good. The bad thing is I have to go to church with my mom on Sunday. I'm not real big on church, and my mom likes the ones that are a little nutty. Ohh, well, I will survive, maybe she won't notice my earbuds!
Well I can't hear Mnementh snoring anymore, so I think now would be a good time to head to bed.
Have a good day.

I know isnt it great when you have someone who knows stuff about cars?
Have fun at your mom's crazy office party with your 3 drinks and mandatory church service.
