Gas prices + dying car = reason Jonathan is saving up to buy a scooter
Oh, crappy!
I just wish that the transit system was better. I'd have no problem packing up the kids and hopping on the bus in most instances, but the price has risen, routes have been cut, etc.
I'm really very irritated with the car right now. We bought it a few months ago, and it's shot. It will cost more to fix it than it's worth. Our credit is shit and we have no savings, so it's not like a new or newish car is in our future.
I'm just praying that Damien can get transferred back downtown, so he doesn't have to drive to Brown Deer every day any more.

Our new to us trailblazer is holding up but it's a gas guzzler (most things that will hold three car seats are awful). Jon's old minivan is going to get run into the ground, the trans is slowly dying but will cost more to fix than the bluebook value...
That's exactly where we're at. We paid 1500 for our car (yeah, I know. You get what you pay for.), and the transmission, etc is going to cost 2000+. So now the question is- do we put that money into fixing it, or get another car that's going to last us just a few years.
Bleh.
Bleh.
Ditto on the hair on the back of your neck thing during the summer! I've had long hair for many years, so I'm used to it, but it's awful when it gets sweaty. Icky. Hence why I've been getting into wearing scarves and headbands lately.
I second you on unescapable clutter -- it's EVERYWHERE and most of the time when I attempt to clean it up, I just end up pushing it around....
More comments from me to come. Lab is closing. Damn. I hate summer computer lab hours. I don't wanna go home! I miss you!!! Must escape SOON.
