being sick sucks the big fat ass. had to call in sick yesterday. having customers bitch at me for getting sick germs on there stuff gets old fast. calling in sick did get me out of the last day of a 7 day week. 7 days working in a row is just to much for me. I started the week out feeling cruddy and so tired. going through most of it in the full blown ick was the definite suck. on a good note my tax returns came in yesterday. my car is in the shop yay. driving with no rear breaks I could handle driving with no resistance on my break petal cause I had a serious break fluid leak was scarier than shit. I drove with it like that for a couple days. I was so glad when the money came in I called the break place right away and took the beast in to be fixed. they are only doing minimal stuff to keep me safe and running. new break lines cause my fell apart when they went to check them. new break cylinder, pads and an oil change. Jer has a job so the car really only has to last a couple more months. 4 at the most. in that time we should be able to get together the money to get a car. car places are happier when you give them a few thousand down on a car loan. Jer cant get a car loan strait out and I'm sure my credit isn't good enough to get one aether. with a few thousand down we should be able to get started into a car ok. it will be so nice to not be driving the death trap anymore. granted I love the van but its old and its time for it to retire. the van is well into 260,000 miles and stuff is just starting to fall apart. the zip tie on the passenger side wind shield wiper is a great look. had to tie it down after it quit working and kept flying up and getting stuck on the driver side wiper. its nice that it was the passenger side that quit. hell I only really need the driver side wiper anyways. I have been told by a few people that having one not working could get me a ticket. so I avoid the cops.

Garry Jules - Mad world rocks. great song very cool video. having the day off is great but having no one else here is odd. its so quiet. yesterday I kept busy. I cleaned and went to the store. having cleaned yesterday there isn't much to do today. maybe Ill go up and clean trav ans shels place just for something to do. I don't much feel like reading probably cause I'm sick. its just to freekin quiet. with Jer working now there is not going to be someone home to keep me company on my days off. so sad Ill just have to get used to it.
