ole!

i can't believe it's the last day of my holidays already. this is totally not fair.

yesterday was interesting. i had an 8:30 appointment at the car place to get les car looked at. i got home at noon, $400 poorer, but at least the little blue geo both goes up hills and is so quiet i can't even believe it. for the motorheads out there who might care, the list of repairs: new plugs, plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, air filter, exhaust pipe and muffler, oil change, tire rotation, and wheel balance.

the best part of the experience was chris the midas manager. he was friendly, chatty, funny, had a great voice and was totally cute. i think we had a moment of some sort as i was standing at the counter waiting to give him my money. he was looking me straight in the eyes without saying anything and then it was as if he realized he was staring, slightly shook his head, smiled and fetched a print out of my bill. part of me wants to find something still wrong with the car so i can go back and see him.

today i'm going out for lunch and a wander with jamie and then having some chips'n'fish with my papa tonight. everyday should be a friday off work!
