Wahoo! It's a new week, and as anticipated, things are looking up, just a bit, but there's still a long way to go before my life is stable again.... or at least I'm not all kinds of bummed like last week. I also got to spend a few days with my honey over the weekend, before he left for Deleware for a week. That definitely helped. I think him visiting was the highlight of my week.
I dropped the jeep off at the mechanic today, and he actually got back to me within a few hours. The reaaally scary part is he didn't talk down to me because I was a chick. This guy is okay in my book. The transmission is leaking, as I knew... but it turns out, all of the hoses are rusted away... so, the entire underside of the truck was leaking. But it should be a simple fix, and much cheaper than replacing the whole transmission. He assured me this should resolve the issue! Awesome! I won't be stuck driving only to and from work, and I'll be able to have more adventures up the anthill! Woooo!
Training went all right today, I was an hour late. I woke up at four, hit the 'snooze' button... the next thing I know, it's five thirty. I was going to be late, no question. Sure, i had half an hour to get ready and get there... but, I'm a brute in the mornings. It's not pretty. So, for the safety of the world, I took the time for my morning coffee and cig, and my morning routine.
Other than that stuffs and whatnot, there's really nothing else going on. The date for the set to take place is between August 11th and the 25th. If there's time, I might try to squeeze in another one, just in case the first one gets accepted. My photographer is going back to California for another month after that. But, we'll wait and see what happens.
