my computer comes back tonight... my computer comes back tonight.... yay for me!!

Back in the real world.... I am coming off of a long weekend... long weekends are good, but tomorow (when I have to go to class... ) is really going to suck. So this is a summary of what I did this weekend:

Friday, I had grand plans to work on The Bug and make it very happy, or at least a liitle more so than it was... I was oging to scrub out the floor pan and replace it, and caulk up the drippy spots on the hood, and rewire the electric choke. But my roommate came home frm class and asked me if I would mind checking her fluid levels in her car.... since of course, I know everything about cars. At this point, knowing Esa, I should have asked what else was involved... it can never be something simple.... but no, I fell for it. 6 hours later, William and I had flushed out the radiator on her car and refilled it, inspected her brakes, suspension bolts, and exaust system, adjusted her parking brake, cross rotated her tires, and refused to bleed her brakes and refill them. Oh yeah, and I think we checked the fluid levels too.... grrr. So Will and I went out to dinner (Taco Bell), and started our weekend Kevin Smith Marathon... We watched Clerks and Mallrats. And then my car refused to run (I thinkit was offended because I broke our date for a Honda)

Saturday I went thrift store shopping.... and it was fun. And then William and I watched Chasing Amy and Dogma. And my carr still wouldn't start.

Sunday, I went ot church and stuff, and then called my mom who had been trying to get ahold of me all morning. My granny (Mom's mom) had an accidnet on the way to church, and is in the hospital.... all in all, she made out ok, considering she hit an SUV head on... but she still had three broken ribs, a fractured pelvis, her liver was lacerated, and she took a chunk out of her forehead.... she'll be in surgical ICU for a couple of days, but they expect her to be ok. So while i was waiting for updates from mom (who was at the hospital with Granny) , I worked on my bug.... I got the choke rewired (so it starts now.... yay!) and a couple other things done.... Then i went ot dinner with William and Paul, and we went to the Wesley and watched To Be Or Not To Be (Mel Brooks). Oh yeah, and I made a late night trip to Wal-Mart....

Today I slept until like, 11am.... then Neil called at 11:30 to tellme about his weekend.... then I did homework... and did homework... and did homework..... but I'm not done yet. *sigh* My applet still won't work. anyway.... so now I'm thinking about food.... food woud be good.
