I have to pack tonight, and my packing list includes a swimsuit because my mom thinks it's a great idea to go to an indoor water park this weekend because her grandchildren will like it even though we are celebrating HER birthday.
It's winter, mom. I do not want to wear a swimsuit right now unless I'm vacationing somewhere tropical.
Welp, after charging the jumper thingy all day, I hooked it up the battery and the car still wouldn't start. So I called my dad for advice, and realized that the place that put in this battery was about to close anyway, and was generally disheartened, but I kept jiggling the cables and trying the starter and eventually it did start. So now my parents are coming out to loan me their truck while we figure out what to with my car. Which is still running in my driveway because I am afraid if I turn it off it will never start again.
Supposed to be getting ready to watch football, dammit.
Cars can be such a PITA. May yours decide to cooperate, -t.
I just realized that all I've had to eat today was a PBJ sandwich and a couple small cookies this morning, and that might have something to do with why I've been feeling like shit. I still have zero appetite, though, so I'm opting for mac-and-cheese comfort food.
Gonna watch Jeopardy and see if I can beat the contestants at Final Jeopardy, my nightly ritual.
I'm pretty pleased with myself that I got FJ tonight!
I shouldn't complain. I neglect the poor thing pretty badly and it generally does what I ask.
I did not get FJ tonight, and I am indignant at what it turned out to be. I mean really, the
Spice Girls
?! I thought it was Nirvana.
I realize these are not even close together in magnitude, but I am stressed out about both the football game and the Ferguson announcement.
I may be the only person rejoicing over the weather leading into Thanksgiving, as it give me justification beyond what I already have going on to not head home for the holiday. I wasn't planning on going, then got sad over the weekend and started looking into train and bus schedules and prices, then saw the prices, then saw the weather. Now even my mother has said it's a good thing that I'm not coming up.
I am stressed out about both the football game and the Ferguson announcement.
I'm petty enough to not want it to preempt Sleepy Hollow.
I thought it was Nirvana.
The category was something like British Music of the 90s.
