  Yesterday was horrible. Seriously, today is a blessing compared to the fury that was Friday, September 9^th. Annnnyways.

  
  

   

  
  

  Took my darling Sylvia the Civic into the auto repair place, where I was warned that new brake pads would cost $150. Imagine my thrill when Car Guy Steve called me up to say that there was a rock stuck in my brakes--- and that he’d removed it at no charge. I paid him with a case of beer, which cost way less than new brakes. And no, I’m not actually joking. I bought him a six-pack of Bud.

  I got some fruit snacks outta the vending machine & when my change came out, it gave me more money than I’d even put in! The snacks cost 60 cents & it returned 75 to me, plus my snacks. I made a profit off the vending machiiiiiine.

  I ordered “Anchorman” off of Half.com and it arrived today…. It’s a burned copy, with computer-printed inserts & labels. I’m furious. Some little shit in Batavia, Ohio, thinks he’s pulling the wool over my eyes like I can’t spot a shoddy copy when I pay $8 for it?
