Both suck. And I have had both.
The car is running, which is the good news. It was expensive, but it's running, and it still is costing me less than a car payment would, so I am putting off buying a new car until such a time as the repairs are costing more than a car payment. (Plus, it's tied up as collateral in a loan for the class that I hate in spite of the fact that I'm doing well in it.)
I have caught the cold of doom. Doom I tell you! On the plus side, this means that my annual viewing of the Lord of the Rings extended version DVDs was accomplished in a weekend instead of two weeks. On the negative side, it means that people have begun to wonder what has happened to me as I have been unable to chill with the homies for quite some time now. Also, I am way behind on all needful things, including homework, writing, work, and housework. On the other hand (which gives me three for those of you who are counting), I don't care.
I went to bed at like 8 last night, which was marred by the fact that I had crazy Nyquil dreams of the scarey variety. Which I will not talk about.
On the whole, I pretty much want to go home and sleep some more, and I probably will because try as I might, I just don't care about the consequences. And that is all I know for now. Peace out, peeps.

I'll conceed that they cost money, especially to fix, but I think it is worth it. All you need is a cheap, reliable, fun car. They do exist.
Posted by: jeff at September 29, 2006 04:50 PMI have to say that I too love cars. I mostly blame myself for my car's troubles. I gave her a high maintenence name: Rita Ramona.
Speaking of, am I the only one who names her car?
Posted by: Lo at September 29, 2006 05:08 PMI know you aren't the only one because mcdbro has named her car and an ex of mine also named their car. However, my car doesn't have a name, sad, but true.
how about: cars suck up money, which sucks. I enjoy having a car - but I could do without the fill up, oil changes, tires, and things breaking :-)
Posted by: 10lees at September 29, 2006 08:41 PMI don't name my cars. My family doesn't either because we all drive different models so that works as their names. Although we now have two Honda Accords (best car EVER!!) in the family so we go by color. Blue Honda and Green Honda.
