So...
I took my car in today to get it worked on because lately when I use the turn signal the clicking sound continues even after the turn signal is off. But I actually ended up getting new brake pads and rotors on the front because it wasn't actually making the clicking sound today so they were mostly guessing what would fix it and, since the turn signal is working, and the brakes were clearly heading toward the not-working stage, it seemed the better choice. Of course, it also cost twice as much as fixing the turn signal.
And by the way, I hate with the mighty hate of a thousand suns, television sets in public waiting areas. Today I was, at least, smart enough to take my iPod with me and I still managed to see far more of Regis and Kelly (only with out Regis), the Price is Right, and the Young and the Restless than I really wanted to see. Although now I know what that guy from Project Runway looks like wearing Crocs, how much a pull-behind camper costs and that some guy I don't know is eloping to New Mexico with some woman I don't know (I mean, really, I'm assuming I heard wrong--who would elope to New Mexico?)
Also, my realtor told me that someone looked at my old house this week and is really interested, but wants to get their life in order first. My god, if I have to wait until someone has their life in order, the house may never sell.

Oh, big DITTO on the tv's in public waiting areas. When I was sick this summer, and waiting for some sort of scan/test sort of thing, and really out of it with this high fever and in pain, there was a tv on in the waiting area and I swear, it was so incredibly loud and annoying that I wanted to get out of my wheelchair and drag myself and my iv pole over there and rip it off its stand.
Also, I hope that person gets his/her life together soon and buys your lovely house.

I am currently tempted to get a universal remote and stealthily turn the audio lower and lower or randomly turn the television on and off until everyone thinks it's broken and they just leave it off (this would probably spectacularly backfire in some way I haven't thought of, tho).
