One can dare to hope.

Last weekend we noticed a wildly pitching steering wheel when I drove the Grand Am.

Fearing the worst, a problem with the front steering components, I called in my cousin Steve.

Turned out to be a massive bulge in one tire, enough to make me take Windsparrow's car to work, because she was driving locally, I was driving 100 miles RT.

So I had Steve get me a used tire from a dealer. He ended up getting two, because the guy wouldn't sell him one of a set.

Fine, but only need one now, so Steve went to get it mounted for me before i had to drive to work Tuesday.

He got the car back to me just in time for me to drive to work Tuesday.

Just before getting in the car, I noticed an inscription on the outside of the tire.

Mount this side in.

I have an appointment tomorrow.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

He's going to fix this, but....

Last weekend we noticed a wildly pitching steering wheel when I drove the Trans Am.

Dream on.

I just found something creepy.

I had noted that the Google satellite view was updated for my house, so I checked out around town for landmarks to see when it had been taken. I dated it sometime in early summer 2006.

Then I started thinking about landmarks in other parts of the area.

I found that If I brought up a map of Minneapolis [link]

I could find the bridge that collapsed a year ago. Weird, but not unexpected to see it whole.

Finally the creepy part. It has "street view" pictures.

Pictures taken while the construction work was being done at the time of the collapse.

Not taken at the moment, of course...but still? Cree-pee.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

o_a has a cool dad. Perhaps I'm just impressed because my father never asked me what I wanted.
Ha! No. Not quite. He's a bit of a drunk. It was during the messy divorce with Mom. It was probably some passive-aggressive moment to get at mom somehow.

I managed to escape from the preview performance. Which meant i could eat dinner at home! I sit down in the evil chair to put the feet up and rest and watch some TV. What do I hear? An alarm clock? What the hell? So the clock next to the bed was set 12 hours off, and the 8:30 alarm was going off. Um. This might explain (a lil) of my troubles waking of late. I'm guessing I set it wrong when the power blinked a few weeks back. Life has been so frazzled, I hadn't even noticed. and people wonder why I prefer 24-hr time. Stupid AM/PM thing.

Did anyone else catch the Obama speech? OMG! So glad I got the evening off and was able to watch it!

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I manage to sleep until 4am. I skipped the fact that Matt needs jobma~~~. There were some signs that could be benign,but could be bad. I honestly think unless there are major changes, he needs to leave,but I would prefer it to be by his choice.

and the cat seems fine,but Ihave to decide what to do over the weekend. Yes, I will be talking to the vet,but I want my answer now I wish everyone an exceptional friday.

“Not dead yet!”

job ~ma for Matt and kitty ~ma that whatever's going on isn't a huge deal.

I'm glad I'm taking the dogs in for boarding today-- for the last day or so, Mooshu has been scratching and licking at his groin and since he's been prone to skin issues before, I was concerned. At first, it was just red, from his licking, so I gave him some Omega pills and swabbed the area with the prescription aloe and oatmeal lotion, to try to give him some relief. This morning, though, his skin is dark, almost like it's a fungus. *sigh* It's tough to wrestle a hundred pounds of very furry dog to the ground so you can check his hoo haw when he most decidedly doesn't want you to.

At least, though, the boarding facility also has a vet, so I'll have them check him out and get him on some antibiotics if that's what's needed.

Mostly lurking...

Much job~ma for Matt!

Goodness...so much happening the last few days. Hugs and ~ma all around!

So, I think my dog is the only dog I know that gets extremely excited when his crate comes out. He's running around like a five-year-old that's getting ready to leave for Disney World. "I want to go NOW, mom!" He's going to be in doggie friend heaven this weekend!
