Aaaand an email came in from GM's Communications Manager (Western something or another).
They'll provide me with a loaner for at least a week.
Zoe: Nobody's saying that, sir. Wash: Yeah, we're pretty much just giving each other significant glances and laughing incessantly.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's a start, anyway.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am so ready for a break from the heat - 10 day forecast, still no day under 100. That will be 4 days in the last 2 months under 100, and 3 of those 4 were officially 99.

Well, now, isn't that promising? What's the time-frame on getting the part and getting it installed? Will your local dealer install it for you?

Allyson, if you don't get anywhere call a consumer reporter and/or tweet your story to Ed Schultz or someone(Rachel Maddow?) I got negged a few times. Although I'm not sure if one counts, because I told the guy his profile looked like crap, and shouldn't he be trying to win people over with it?(Which might have looked like a neg in its own right, but honestly? I really am sick of people not putting effort into these things.) But what made it a neg was that he wrote back "Are you always this friendly?" which I believe was intended to make me abase myself with ladyguilt about not captivating a stranger.

That's great news Allyson. Depending on how far you get with this person at GM, a friend of mine who saw your post on Facebook suggested tweeting your problem to @cartalk. NPR to the rescue!
