It's certainly not my driveway... Oh no, it's far from here. In fact, it's in the middle of the woods... It just didn't make it home in one piece.
...f@#king flat tires.
This is the second one on a set of perfectly good tires, atleast, good enough to have passed inspection. This time, I didn't have a spare tire, since, it's in use from the flat I had a month ago. As per my wish list, new tires are in order. And, well, I have to work tomorrow morning. This is going to be interesting. Shopping... on black friday... for tires. Then... getting the Beast... and putting the new tires on... all before work. Granted, I don't think my Mom works, so I could just get a ride to work. My Dad may not either and might be doing the tire shopping and installing.
Cheap cars... You gotta love 'em. I think it's time I try getting a car that requires payments. I don't need anymore cars requiring TLC. My Millenia did me extremely well until minor needs met a random problem and the money needed to put into it wasn't there. But, I'm beginning to think I can't take these chances. I need to get a car that can be trusted right off the lot (or driveway, if from a private party). Whether or not I can actually afford that is another story. Sure, I have a job now, but it's minimum wage with hours that fluctuate sharply. I might not have a choice in the matter. The Beast, despite starting off as a good deal, is turning into a real money pit. After tires are purchased, the total amount invested will rise above $1000. I don't think I can justify putting anymore money into it. The real irony in all this is, however, that the amount we've invested is more than what I would have needed to put my Millenia back on the road... and the carburetor and alternator problems haven't been fixed yet.
You know, I guess I just have to laugh at it all. *shakes head* f@#king cars. I should just move to NYC with my friend. No more worries.
