Get up and go where?

Let me just get this off my chest.

I hate my life!!

I feel better now... Okay, not really. But it helps.

A little clarifiaction? What more do you need clarified? I hate my life. It's a simple as that.

Okay. So there is a reason to it. Whether it merits all the dramatics. No. Not really. I just feel like being a little dramatic.

So what is my dilemma this time? My fucking car! Again!

After spending close to $500 for a fucking tune up, my car is still not running right. On New Years Eve I was heading out to Livermore to go bring in the New Year with friends. As I was getting onto the freeway my car decides that it doesn't want to give me the gas to get up and go. I was forced to get right back off the freeway. Now, before I was stranded up in Ukiah I was having this little problem with my car, but my car would eventually kick in after a few seconds and I was good to go. I figured it just had to do with my fuel filter being terribly clogged or what not, and after I had my major tune up it was all good. Or so I thought. Now I can't even drive my car on the freeway, at all. I know I've got to get my car to a shop, but gawd damn it, I just don't have the fucking money for this. I'm hoping it just has to do with something as simple as replacing the fuel pump, injector, level sending unit, and pressure regulator. Or even just one of those, if that is possible since I don't know how a fuel injector works in tandem with all those parts. I mean, I get the idea just by each of their descriptions. I just don't know if you can replace just one or you have to replace them all at the same time. However, since I know nothing about cars what so ever, that probably may not even be my problem anyway. The way my car is acting, I'm suspect that is what it is. I'm just praying that it's not my transmission. That, I really can not afford! But the only way I'm going to find out is taking my damn car in. Yea, I need to charge more on my credit card! Just shoot me!

Now, to be able to drop my car off at the shop I'm going to need a car to get to work. Yea, let's just add the cost of having to get a rental car too, on top of that!

Since I am thinking of taking a trip up to see my Wenchy next weekend, lord knows I can't drive my car to Ukiah, or flap my arms (times like these I wish I really could fly like I can in some of my dreams!), I'll just get the rental car and drop my car off to the shop on Thursday night. If I'm lucky I can have my car back by Friday night and not have to have the rental until Monday. However, luck hasn't ever been a very good friend of mine. So I'm not counting on that.

I think I can use a little weekend escape to see the Wench. Between all my car troubles, lack of money and my Grammy still being in the hospital, I need a little escape time!

Wenchy has been dating some guy, we'll call just call him Slater, for a little while now. Last night was the first time she really told me about him. When I was up there a few weeks ago I saw her repsonding to an e-mail, and when I asked her, "Who's Slater?!", she kinda of gave me the deer in the headlight, no body's home, look and said nobody. Yea, ri-ight. I know Wenchy all too well to know that it wasn't just a nobody. When I called her on it last night she said she just didn't want me giving her any shit about it. See, Wenchy has a habit of meeting all these creeps on-line and I keep telling her that she needs to quit looking, that she is trying too hard. And yes, I give her a hard time about it. I do it out of love though. I hate seeing her put herself out there, and they are always the same type of guys. One's that she needs to stay clear of!

So last night she is telling me all about this Slater character. She keeps on telling me that he is different from the rest of them. Where as I replied to her, "Yea, we'll see when I meet him." Yes, I have to meet all of her beaus. I have to check these guys out and see if they are good enough for her, which most of them aren't. She has warned Slater about me (she warns everyone about me!). I have to see for myself if this guy is as Wenchy says. We'll see. It's always very interesting to see how these guys come at me with all they got. I hear Slater has read my blog, now I don't know if has continued to read it to see just how 'her friend is'. If he is still reading this 1] I'm sorry you are subjecting yourself to my ramblings, 2] these ramblings are just little snippets to who I am, you'll find that I am a bit more complex to figure out, and 3] I am very protective of my Wenchy! With that said, good luck! LOL!

I am looking forward to meeting this Slater character though. From what Wenchy has told me he seems very interesting and I would like to get to know him. It will also be nice to hang out with someone our own age beside hanging out with her younger brother and all his 20 something friends. Not that there is anything wrong with her brother and his friends. I love her brother and think of him as a younger brother as well. It would just be nice to hang out with people that are older and have been through the same shit as ourselves, ya know.

So, we'll see how it all goes. And oh yea, I will keep you posted. Specially since Wenchy wants me to meet one of his friends. Yea, this should be interesting in deed.
