If I only could I'd set the world on fire...
Time for some venting because my day has just been so unbelievably shitty. So last nite I decided not to drive back to Tally because everywhere on the West side of Jax was without power and I definitely did not have enough gas to drive back. So I slept at my dad's and figured I would start heading back at around 8:30 so I could at least make it to work on time. So I'm driving down I fucking 10 and all of a sudden my car starts making all these fucking banging noises so I take it off of cruise control and it starts gradually decelerrating and making a grinding noises to accompany the banging. I try to accelerate...not happening. So I fucking pull over on the side of the road and stop...it's making worse grinding noises by this time. I put it in park, turn it off, then turn it on again and put it in drive and press the pedal...nothing but more grinding. I knew my transmission was FUCKED at that point. So I call my dad crying because I'm so frustrated and my cell phone was dying on top of it all and he asked me where I was and I told him out by Maclenny and mile 332 or whatever and he called the tow truck. In the mean time I ditched my new pipe that I just bought in fear that a state trooper would fall out of the sky, as cops tend to do...so that sucks. Then we had it towed to a shop in Maclenny which was just chocful of rednecks. (Oh and the tow truck driver was totally redneck and he said he was from West Virginia!!! BGIMM ) And I told them I thought it was the trans and they turned it on and pressed the pedal and heard the same grinding as I did and said "Well that didn't take long to figure out." Sooooooooo...while I was sitting in the freezing cold office w/ this 500 lb lady and her 8 year old daughter running in and out saying "Mama, Chris keeps takin my knife." , some guy called around to get some prices on transmissions and the best one he found was for $750 and plus labor and all it's gonna be around $1200. That's more than that car is fucking worth. My dad and I agreed that we have to fix it so we can at least get something for it to trade in or whatever. And yeah I am looking for a new car. So after all that...they're not even going to get the part in until tomorrow afternoon so that means I have to stay here in Jax until it's finished pretty much and miss all my classes and work...I called in today and Tacha was cool cuz it was slow and all but I really don't want to have to miss Wednesday too. ::sigh:: I hope they'll be able to fix it tomorrow...they seemed like they were doing a whole lot of nothing while I was there. And one ugly fucker looked at my John Kerry button and said "So you're a John Kerry fan huh?" and I looked at him and said "Yep, he's got my vote." Ugly redneck summer teeth(sum r there sum r not)motherfucker, like you know shit about politics...you're wife is about 1/2 a ton and you let your children run around with knives and play in the mud and dirt around old busted up cars and shit all day. I almost feel sorry for those people sometimes. So back to the point...my dad came and picked me up and now I'm here until we can get the damn thing fixed.
What did I do or who did I piss off to deserve this?
Question of the Day: Why do bad
things happen to good people?
EDITED FOR THE ONLY GOOD NEWS OF THIS SHITTY DAY: WE DID IT MOTHERFUCKERS! FUCK THE GOP, FUCK THE IDIOT SON OF AN ASSHOLE...MICHAEL MOORE IS COMING TO SPEAK @ FSU THIS COMING SAT @ 7PM! HE AGREED TO COME SPEAK FOR FREE!!! NORMALLY IT COSTS $40,000! HOW KICK ASS IS THAT?
And since I'm a College Democrat I get preferencial seating! I'm going to bring Littlestar, and Hellmark and we're going to hopefully meet him and most definitely take lots of pics!
