Thursday, February 25, 2010: Auto Travels

Me. In the car.

(NOT driving...sitting in the driveway!)

I feel like I am ALWAYS in the car. I practically live out of my car. For the last year or so, I've had the feeling that I spend more time in my car than in my home each week. While it's true that I have this feeling, I don't know how accurate an assessment it is of where I spend my time.

I like my car, and have come to become desensitized to spending oodles of time in it. It's a comfortable place to be, and I'm happy as a clam with my books on CD, music, and the open (or even trafficked) road ahead of me.

My lady--Restored to her "glory"

I DID NOT take my car in to the body shop.

If you look back to my post on 2/16, you may do a double take as I did today when I went to peek at the damage done to my car. It's gone. This is miraculous! My family and I have theorized that the heat from the sun must have forced the indent back out...but really, who's heard of that happening?!

To top it all off, the police called and shared that the person came in to report hitting my car. My faith in humanity is completely restored, and my faith in the supernatural/divine is renewed.

Tues. February 16, 2010: Poor 'Yota

My dinged lady

I discovered this lovely blemish on my rear bumper today. It was kind of "one of those days" today... I started the day by being awakened by a lovely dripping sound from the ceiling. So, I got up to do work, and made quite a bit of progress typing out a whole chapter of notes for my study guide. My computer chose not to save the document and Word proceeded to crash, and I lost all of it. Then, in the late afternoon, I made the discovery that my car had been violated. (AND--who ever hurt my car didn't leave me a note!!! Grrrr....)

Not a terrible day though, and I'd made it 47 days into this new year without having "one of those days" so it was about time!

Tomorrow will be a better day. :)
