I am sitting here sipping my coffeee, trying to stay awake until midnight so that I might buy an imported CD that I've been wanting as soon as my pay hits the bank. It is becoming more difficult to stay awake by the minute...
Why? Because my car needs an oil change...
Huh? Allow me to explain...
It has been eons since the oil in my car has been changed. Shame on me! The oil and filter were purchased at least a month ago and are sitting in the trunk still. Yesterday, "the estranged one" told me that he would change it for me, all that I had to do was switch cars with him for the night. I really didn't want to do that. I had places to go and his car is a disaster area that is always running low on gas. I told him of the errands that I needed to run, and he said that it was OK. He would stop by and pick up my car late at night after he was done doing whatever it is that he does until the wee hours. He 'd probably be by at around 1 AM, he told me. I'd only have to drive his car to work in the morning. He'd have the oil changed and the car back to me before I finished working. It sounded like a good plan to me, ao I agreed to let him do it.
When my errands were run I came home and took my CDs and coffe mug out of the car. I didn't want to accidentally leave them in the car during the switch. They are much needed items for me. I had to wait up for him to come for the car, He doesn't have a key and my key to his car has vanished. 1 AM came and went. 2 AM came and went. At 2:30 I gave up and went to bed. The S. O. B. never showed up! GRRRRRR!
Tired and pissed, not exactly the best way to be feeling...
