I'm in a Fugly Mood

Well, things are almost back to normal after the disappointment at the outcome of the Super Bowl. But the Steelers will be back, that I am sure of.

The loss wasn't the only disappointing thing that happened this week. I am without a car. My back passenger side brake was making such a terrible noise, I knew I couldn't wait any longer to have it replaced, so that is what Dave has been working on. He had to order new parts which should be here tomorrow. He did replace the back driver's side one. Oh yeah, he decided against buying a new car at this time (bummer), which I think would have been a better option. I could have gotten one more fuel efficient. Oh well, maybe this summer after his is paid off.

I can understand why he doesn't want to buy a new car, the payments mainly. My van has been paid off for close to, if not, two years now. It's been nice having the extra money in the account. I know, I'm being selfish wanting a new car. I will have to make this one last, which except for the brakes and having a gas tank that keeps spitting out gas when you're pumping it if you don't do it just right, it's been doing pretty good. So I should be satisfied. I was the one who wanted a minivan to begin with.

Oh well, I guess I'm in a fugly mood right now. What I need to do is get up off of my butt and get moving. If it weren't so cold, near zero, I'd go out for walk. I do have plenty to keep me busy here in the house though. The problem is that it's here in the house. I think my mood is because I'm stuck here in the house and there are things I have to get done up in Des Moines and I can't because I don't have a car to get there. I hate being without a car and thinking that I was almost able to get a new one, has me frustrated. You know how it is, I'll get over it.
