so one thing that will help you heal (when you cause some kind of damage to your shoulders lifting heavy objects in a dead lift manner)....lots and lots of restful sleep! at least for one day!

wish me luck....still looking.

new quote from a girl I work with....

that's all.

so new method of dealing with work BS. the Front End loves calling me in to run register when I'm closing the lot Saturday nights. I rant and rave, to no avail (I hear "These things happen" and such....even if I get called in to run register to cover breaks).

so now....I'm timing how long I'm on register, and when I start bitching now, the...

never a good thing when working maintenance and you get a call "The front women's bathroom has a situation."

even worse when you walk in cold, see it, and go "Oh God noooooooooo!" and almost hurl!

yeah...that sums up my day today!

so finished the latest Dresden Files book early Sunday morning. really nice to get through a good book....but it sucks since it ends. what's next? another year to wait. oh how I hate that about book series.....a good author gets you hooked and you have to wait for the next one! can drive you nuts!

so my step-father brought his car in today to have the A/C fixed. he said it was fine...well, it was blowing out 95%+ heat. so guess not.

the A/C got fixed...and the serpentine belt was cracked so that got replaced. and his wipers were bad. so he had them replace those as well (Firestone).

to the tune of $375+. so guess it was quite a...

so last day of vacation...I need to fix the hood latch (again) of my car and get another engine flush done. and make sure the radiator hose stays attached this time. my neighbor was quite surprised by the fact that the hose stayed on so long without the clamp being locked down.

although I did run out of radiator fluid...oddly enough, I still had a...
