The car needs expensive repairs to make it roadworthy for our trip to MFF. It's all stuff that needs fixed, so it looks like we'll have to buck up if we plan to take The Plonqmobile to Chicago/Ohio this year.
Looks like it's going to be a lean Christmas around here this year.

atara keeps calling me a "girlie man" because of all my Zafara icons. Well Zaffy is very manly as Neopets go, I'll have you know!)

....not in a bad way though.

Sucks to hear about your wheels. If you ever figure out a way to have set working full time 24/7 for less than five grand a year, let me know. ;)
(This refers to some crazy formula a co-worker used to convince me to buy a brand new car last year.)

Date: 2005-11-09 08:27 pm (UTC)That image is mesmerizing to me, BTW, I can't stop looking at that Zafara @_@
Probably because I'm such a manly guy ;)
