Don't you eff with Izzy.........
How many times does this happen???
I was really worried that I had too much water mixed in. Either way I figures out I was leaking, which I knew, but I am leaking from a head gasket. Nice it will be at least 1500 to 1800 to fix. Yep give me a break.
After talking to the nice mechanic. I am fine and won't do any damage as long as I keep antifeeze in it. They didn't flush it because I have corrosion and it could break that loose and we would have another prob.
So I left without a cent spent. Never Happens Ever.......
He also told me he does work on the side and could do it for me cheaper, If I decide to do it.
Fiesty, you will be sooo proud of me. I researched in my new "Car Repairs for Dummies" before I went and I was prepared for the worst. Thanks again for the book.
I'm addicted........

Guess what?????
My car is fixed. $288.00 later the sensor that has been driving me insane has been fixed. I am sporting my car. Hooray!!!!!!!!!!!
I also changed my serpentine belt the next day.
Heres whats left:
3 new tires and 2 new rims( thaanks 55)
transmisson fluid and filter change
Drain and pressure test hoses for antifreeze, need new antifreeze.
Thats all I can think of now. I need these done before winter.
But the car is running fine and I am happy that I get to drive it again.
welcome back to hell
Here is a list of obstacles I had to deal with today driving to work: I know your jealous...
(I forgot one) I went to my car and there was frost on my windows. This is new... So I sat for 5 mins and waited for the windows to unfrost. Who knew this was the beginning of an Wonderful Adventure.
1.) 3 new stop signs on a road that is done and taken 8 months to accomplish(it was a whole 3 blocks)
2.) A Detour that I had to figure out on my own. The detour I wanted to take was stopped because the train signs were down and there was no train.
3.) Awesome detour in the middle of nowhere. Ended up at a stop sign on rt 30. It took forever to pull out.
Whew sucky but it should be smooth sailing from here, right??
4.) Got into Aurora finally, behind time but can still make that time up, but not with a cop tailing me. So 30 mph I go, weee, its like a roller coaster.
5.) Go to turn into the parking garage and an idiot tried pulling into the exit. They had to backup and go in the entrance. These people did the austin powers and backed up 4 times. wow some people do not need licenses.
6.) So I continue to follow the slow asses in front of me getting all confused and don't know where to park. AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
7.) Finally theres no one in front of me and I am going to park on the 4th floor. But its blocked. BLOCKED, you know why not. I bet I scared the living shit out of the workers because on a normal day not in the twilight zone I fly around that corner.
Fine I go around the 4th floor again park it. Finally work. So excited right. Eff no.
I clock in at 7:08 that little 8 there makes it quater after. At this point I laugh, whatever.
Then Im not here too long and my boss tells me that I didn't get my 1.75 PTO(paid time off) because it needs to be in 2 hour increments. i proceed to tell my boss Im used to getting screwed over. Fun huh.
I go to the bathroom and the cleaning lady sprayed the living shit out of the floor and toilet. I just want to pee. So I wipe the toilet down. proceed to pull the bottoms of my pants up so they don't get wet and sit down. Why is my BUTT wet!!!! Lets just say wet ring around the butt. HAHAHA really really Awesome. I am surprised my chest didn't start to hurt. Because thats been happening lately.
I ate my stinkin oat-nasty-meal and drank my water, because what i really wanted was some dunkin donuts or mcy d's.
Exhale!!! haha haha crazy laugh ha ha ha ha.

Freak out on the highway...
You feel something possibly tickling your neck. You realize your hair is down and it may be a stray. BUT... this stray was moving a little too much.
This stray was not a stray it was this:
I knew this because I said "Dennis I think theres something on me" and by the time he looked over it moved from my neck to my boob and he hit it but he didn't want to spook me too much by hitting me hard. He saw it fall or run down my side.
I got a glipmse of the thing so I was freaking the hell out. So I made a high pitched noise and as fast as I could but as safe as I could pulled over to the side of the highway.
I got the hell out and people probably thought i was on fire. I was shaking my hair and brushing my self off, all while cars are speeding past me at lightning speed. I had Dennis look under my shirt. He was also inside the car trying to find it, with no luck.
So I wasn't going to kill myself by getting hit by a car so I got back in and luckily Dennis injured him(I found a couple of his legs on me, yum) and I found him next to my seat and killed him.
Not cool not one bit. I can't believe that thing was crawing on me let alone my bare skin. And how long was he chilling on me. eeekkk!!!
Soccer mom?????
Heres the deal. I have no kids and drive a little black car.
She made a sign for me...It has wildcat paws on it and a soccer in the middle with a face on it. It says SOCCER MOM. She put it on the side of the minivan.
I just happened to see it. I would of been driving around with it if I hadn't.
I was cracking up all by myself when I saw it. Too funny....
I should of known right before she left the house. She said "bye soccer mom"
Who knew grapes were so comedic...
My boss drives me up a wall...
Did you know I am a fucking mind reader. i bet you didn't know that, I didn't either.
He need to step back from my desk and just do the job himself, because thats what hes gonna do anyway.
I get to deal with the whole casino trying to setup their Voicemails today. Its automated, it couldn't get any easier.
I get to record the greeting for the department again. It took me a million times to do this before. They never sounded right. I will definitely have to calm down a bit.
So my random vent was probably more for my sanity. Even though I am not feeling more sane yet. Exhale............................................
I have some really funny posts and I will try to get them out when people stop hovering around me.
SAHM's today i envy you for being your own boss. haha.

Sporting a minivan...what what!!!
So driving this minivan is like driving a bus. My dad has the steering wheel set up like you would be driving a bus. I am so used to my little Hyundai Elantra this is weird.
Well I did make it to work and didn't take anyone out in the process.
The sucky part of all this is that I had to get up at the ass crack of dawn, so Dennis could pick me up and drive the 30 mins to my dads so then I could turn around and drive the hour to work. Fun!!!!
Well I indulged with some Mcy D's and I am awake and raring to go today.
Work will be fun, our vm mail server went down and they are fixing it but.... everyone in the whole casino is going to have to reset up there passwords and messages. I can't wait, can you feel the sarcasm.
So see ya later and P.S. party in my minivan later.......
