Oh, and one bad thing about my car--it lied to me the other day. What happened was the SYNC infotainment thingie crashed, leaving the stereo playing at high volume. Nothing I tried would reduce the volume or shut the music off. I had to pull over, shut off the car and restart it. When I did, the SYNC system displayed a status bar and said it was performing "routine maintenance." So I said, "Bullshit. You just crashed. This is non-routine maintenance."
I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A computer lied to you. That's what they do.

Because books.
the SYNC system
I read that as the N'SYNC system. Time for bed, I think.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)
Although I feel like an N'SYNC system is something every car really needs to have.
I wonder if it plays Bye Bye Bye to you as you get out the car or something.

If my car started playing NSYNC music at me on its own initiative it would be singing Bye Bye Bye from the dealership I promptly drove it to as a trade-in.

Maria, my dear, if you aren't already dialing R for Rx, your doc will likely be happy to prescribe some nice, small supply of ER anti-anxieties.
I dunno if you're a tough-it-out girl when it comes to drugs, but I have to say, they help a LOT with situational anxiety...and they don't leave you hanging over, either.
Xanax pretty much got me through the last month and a half of school. Just knowing I had one in my purse meant that I could tough it through better some days. And you have been under a shitton of stress.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow. That was a lot to read all of one day. Sorry to hear about the impending rain damage and the car damage. I hope they both turn out minimal.
Spent the day getting a portacath put in. They really dosed me up with meds because I was having a mondo migraine and they're wearing off now. Now as much fun. I sympathise with Perkins.
