    Talking Boo! Did ya miss me?

    Wow I must be feeling rather self important today based on my choice in titles. Anyways, I realized that I haven't been around for a while and i wanted to pop in just in case anyone was worried. Not that I live in a dangerous area (california foothills) like some other members that have seen the craziness but i remembered the concern that i had for them and i wouldn't want to do that to others. So, I won that ebay lot - my best laid plans to pick the stuff up crumbled before my eyes 2 or 3 times over (no need to say it i have a constant echo of "i told you so" echoing in my brain) but luckily the seller is awesome and working with me & my issues. Kept trying to get my car to pass smog and failing miserably until yesterday when the head gasket went and finalized the score Smog-1 Julie-0 with the bonus of a dead car. Insult to injury right? Moving back to apartment finally tomorrow! Going to be more challenging without a car but hey it's no fun if it's easy right? In conclusion, struggling but will make it through, get that pile of scrap home and be happy as a clam all the way until the check from scrapping it all comes be-bopping in. I wanted to add a evilish laugh and rubbing of hands together here but lacking the wherewithall of how to go about it -just picture Mr. Burns from the Simpsons saying "excellent" like he does with a little daydream cloud of that pile of scrap inside it. Thank you for your time - Goodnight! lol
