I guess it all balances out...

I got called in to work this afternoon. The kids were pretty good. It was at the elementary school. They were fourth graders. It wasn't anything too complicated.

But the car died today. As in, I went downstairs and turned the key and it didn't start. The lights lit up but the starter didn't turn over. It did click though. I'm not sure exactly what's wrong. It could be something as simple as spark plugs (which I haven't changed since I got the car) to something like the starter needing to be replaced. I need to call the auto shop on post tomorrow and change my appointment on the 21st to something more substantial than getting the brakes checked. And we're going to have to get it towed to the shop.

Today was a rough day. I'm tired. I'm sitting sipping a strong rum and coke and eating sunflower seeds. Hopefully elvnsword will get off close to on time. I sent mom to the PX. I was just really snappy and needed some time to cool off because I kept snapping at her too. I can always ride my bicycle most places. We don't technically need the car until the end of June but it would be nice to have it work out.

Tell me you all had better days.

My day felt kinda off kilter too. . . I did have a really nice evening tho' - bluesimian invited me over and cooked me dinner. He made a Garlic Chicken Pizza which was really yummy.

Then we cuddled on the couch and watched TV (a treat for me!) We watched Jeopardy and House. I liked House - it was entertaining.

Hope today goes better for you. I'm glad you got a gig at the school!!
