aren’t all my coffee-flavoured work application icons adorable? yes. i thought so, as well. that is why i am sharing them. =)\nevery time i take a semi-deep breath, my middle back hurts. i think i’m dying.
\ni need to phone jim the mechanic and see if he can quote me prices to either rebuild or replace my car’s engine (i almost said “my engine” but thought better of it. although, considering the previous paragraph, maybe my engine needs replacing too). there are lots of leaks and it make scary rattle-y noises and it smells burny. every time i stop at a light, i watch the edges of the hood for smoke.
\nit’s either get into two-thousand dollars more debt just to keep the car in safe operating shape or get into twenty-thousand dollars more debt to buy a new car. if i was absolutely sure i could make the payments, i’d do the latter. i suppose it depends on just how much it would cost to get it fixed up. at this point, any money i put into it is a diminishing return. the car will be ten years old in april. it’s a 3-cylinder geo. i don’t think it was meant to make it into its teen years.
\nwhy does it always come back to money? maybe i’ll have to apply for that scheduling job i don’t really want. i have to decide by tomorrow, whatever i do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
