No idea, sj, but hopefully not too expensive for you right now.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

GC, health~ma for GF's dad!!
AAA just left with my car. The guy thinks it is the fuel pump. Does anyone have any idea what that is going to cost me?
I know ballpark from having one replaced in the past... but I think maybe you should just wait and see what the mechanic says. If someone tells you higher than what the mechanic quotes, you'll have been overly freaked for nothing. If someone tells you lower than what the mechanic quotes, it'll just be even more upsetting to hear the actual cost.
Car ~ma, hon.

God, did that sound extremely mother-ish?!?
Obviously I'm not wording things well today. If you really want to know, sj, I'd be happy to tell you. Or feel free to call me at work if you want to talk to someone.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Ick. If it's just the pump (and Mike's an honest sort) then it's somewhere between $100 and $350 for the part. I forget the make and model of your car, but I'd bet off the top of my head that it'll come in at $250 or so, after labor.

Not at all.

Mike seems like a nice guy; he's supposed to call me back soon, so hopefully he will have good news. It's a 98 Accord, fwiw.

If it's not something that frequently goes bad in Accords, you might be able to find one in a junkyard somewhere. But that might just be from my acquaintance with semi-pro mechanics who feel it's an admission of inadequacy to go to a professional shop.

Baby's asleep. She looks like a little doll all bundled up.
I'm gonna have to rouse her though since I'm making an outing to the laundromat.
It's nice to have a stroller again and Indian Summer days for talking Matilda out on walks.

Have skipped in a most egregious way, but I'm in library somewhere near Boston. Am not dead. No internet in the house though, which is close enough.
