Today I start a whirlwind of stuff! So I won't be posting 'til Wednesday, probably. My face hasn't broken out like this in a while!! I need more sleep. Anyhoo, this morning, I noticed the "Check Engine" light on on my dash :( I hate car problems. Now I don't feel 100% safe driving my car!! And I am to do a considerable amount of driving around today. *sigh* I guess I will just run my errands, and take a cab to the party tonight. I wonder how much that will cost :? Gotta make an appointment with the body shop. And I did a lot of packing last night. I think I am missing a glove. Seems like everything is really stressing me out, and I'm the kind of person who doesn't like asking for help. Either that or it never occurs to me. I did write up a to-do list because those have always helped me in the past. By having the list, I can actually see what needs to be done, and then I realise there's not that much. But right now, I'm stressed because I am not able to tackle the things on my list!! Yesterday was a day of the return of the men or something. C appeared on line "we've only seen other twice since TO [Back in May, we were both in Toronto]." The idea of hanging out with him doesn't really appeal to me. And J messaged me, too, and he was being really nice. He was asking me what I wanted for my birthday and Christmas. I was thinking "huh"? Speaking of birthdays and Christmas...my birthday is close enough to Christmas to get me gypped. It annoys me to no end to get combo gifts, cards, and wrapping paper. No, I don't want a Christmas card that says happy birthday! And no! I do not want Christmas wrapping paper around my presents. If your birthday was in June, and I used Christmas wrapping, what would you think?? "You cheap-a$$..." I bet. Anyway, I got a birthday card from my a dear old aunt yesterday. I had to get my mom to translate what she wrote in it, which was "happy birthday and new year." I had to feign some fake anger "AND"?? "AND?" Was that too selfish? To me, the whole birthday-Christmas combo thing is just silly. If it's too much holiday cheer for you, just pick one to celebrate. !! |

A - if you take your car to an Auto Parts store they can usually hook a machine up to your veh and let you know what the code refers to. At least AutoZone here in the US does that. I think others do to. Sometimes it is set so that you will get your overhaul check done at the 30,000 and 60,000 and 90,000 and 120,000 Miles (sorry don't know the KM). So might not be a big deal. My Check Engine comes on if I use any gas that IS NOT CHEVRON. Weird, but I dont' argue with it! *Grin* - kara

That is too funny!! At least you figured out your car biz. I'm not sure if we have any Auto Parts stores, but I JUST made an appointment at my usual place. I will leave my car for the day since I'm due for an oil change and all that, and then I'm going to get my ugly snow tires on!!

I think I'd rather take frozen tires than melted ones!! How warm does it stay in the winter over there??

Jonathan's birthday is on Christmas day and he feels jipped a lot too. It's funny because when he was little he was so used to other people getting presents in his birthday that one year on his brother's birthday he said, "Well, where are my gifts?" Poor kid!

It could be worse, rosie. When I was growing up, I knew a set of triplets whose birthday was Christamas eve. They got a lot of combo "for all of you to share" presents. :(

Triplets having a Christmas Eve birthday; I guess they learned the value of sharing, well!
