so found out my cousin is taking her ex-husband to court to change their separation agreement....

not because he doesn't pay child support (he does)
not because he doesn't see his children (he does....well, except for when she lets the youngest one stay home because he doesn't want to go)
not because we're not sure about the father of her youngest (rumor is she was...

fun day on Wednesday...and long day. I worked overnight. thankfully I had (and accepted) the offer to drive my Mom's Jeep Liberty to work. Tuesday we got hit by snow (not as much as Canada, but a good amount). I decided to drive my Neon to work.....not too bad getting there (only slid once) but slow driving.

coming home at 8 AM, though...different story! I...

just wrote the complaint letter to fire off to Chrysler regarding my radiator/transmission (I had to replace it around Thanksgiving).

asking for the $2343.60 back I had to pay for a new radiator and transmission overhaul. in getting things together (since the radiator was previously replaced), discovered my dates were off...by a year. I had the radiator replaced in 2006 by Doan Dodge....at 45,000 miles....

he memorizes her...

good laugh time (oddly enough...on the anniversary of my uncle's suicide)....

my one aunt (Mom's sister) just called. I'm not to mention anything to her 55 year old husband (who has worked 2 weeks in 20+ years of marriage...and lets her work her tail off to support his habits such as hunting, fishing, and drinking 100 year old bottles of scotch) about the fact that...

one way not to get a date.....and sadly a true story.

one person i work with is the epitome of emo. he's constantly bitching and complaining about how much his life sucks. a new manager started, and he professed his "love" for her.

asking her out....his line? "I got depressed one time, went down to Lyell Ave and got myself a hooker."

okay, I got...

car is back, the garage had to rebuild my transmission (due to not having one in stock), the true cost was about $2200 for the transmission work plus $320 or so for the new radiator, however, since the guy quoted me $1500 to $1900, he charged me $1900 for the transmission work, credited the additional amount, and the $320 for the new radiator. so paid...
