Man, not having a car sucks. Now mind you, I own two cars. One of which is in storage for the winter about an hour away, the other is in the shop.
I was leaving work Friday afternoon, and as I approached a stop sign, I step on the break pedal and it goes to the floor. Uh oh. I blew out a break line going to the rear breaks. The car still stops, and since it's a 5 speed, you can slow the car down by downshifting as well.
Anyway, I took it to a shop that was pretty close in order to get it replaced. I've done break lines before, and it was a pain in the ass. Well, I didn't realize at the time that the shop wasn't open on weekends. So the damn car sat all weekend. Then I didn't even get a call until about 3pm on Monday about it. So maybe I'll get the car back today.
I wanted to go pick up my other car anyway, as the weather started getting nice this week. It's in my Grandma's garage (since she doesn't drive). But when I called her, it turns out she has the flu, and didn't want me to come while she was sick. She likes visitors, and I would have had to spend 4 or 5 hours there talking and fixing stuff (which I don't mind). And she didn't want me to just drop by for a short time.
So meanwhile, I'm stuck all weekend long. I had lots of things that I wanted to do, but couldn't get out without getting a ride, or borrowing a car. It sucks. I remember what it's like to be 14 or 15 again. No thank you.

No buses in the boonies where I live. And anywhere close enough to walk to is nowhere I'd want to be.

I'm going to check in to this board once every 10 years just to make sure I haven't missed anything. Sorting through quarantine bookmarks leads to funny discoveries. Hope anyone who accidentally stumbles onto this is doing well.

I honestly feel nostalgic for this place in a funny way.
I dunno where most people are, I only keep in touch with Ric. Got a few on fb but no Gimp or Chup! Where is everyone!
