Ick, sorry askye. Car repairs are never fun.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Thrive to spite them
I'm not too upset. It would have been a lot more if I'd just ignored everything until all the oil ran out. And in the past I might have just done that.

I had my car in the shop yesterday for an oil change and check up and was completely sure I'd get a call about additional work that was needed. But somehow the sun shone on me and it was just an oil change.
askye, I hope they get the work done quickly and don't discover anything new that needs immediate attention.

That's a bummer, askye. I'm glad you caught it before the oil ran out and your engine seized, though.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
ChiKat, I am so sorry. Much peace and love to you, Mickey, and your family.
2012? You obviously weren't listening. I *told* you not to act like your big brother 2011. That's not a good example to follow. Knock it the hell off.
askye, what Calli said. Replacing the engine would have been a lot more than $400.

And *that's* what I forgot! Congratulations, Laura and family! Your new dog is adorable.

Congratulations, Laura and family.
{{{Maria}}} I'm sorry this year is already being difficult for you. Is there anything we could do?

sj, my 2012 comment was more in the general sense, because there seems to be a few buffistas that already find themselves giving the year the stinkeye. No difficulties for me just yet, though I still peek around the corners and tread very gently so as not to anger a year that's only 5 days old.
Thank you so much for the hugs, though. There's never a bad time to hug an Italian.
