News...good and bad

[info]silnith once again proves himself to be my Knight in Shining Armour whose White Steed is much sturdier than my own. My car is officially gimped, for-real like, and I had to get a ride the other half of the way to work via someone else's vehicle. Guess my baby couldn't wait until tomorrow to be examined as dad and I had hoped. That's alright, though, because I managed to get it to an area of town that's both nicer and filled with large quantities of open parking lots--perfect for storing my car until the tow truck can come fetch it--and grocery stores (perfect for purchasing my lunch). And towing on my insurance--effective from the phone call asking them to add it--is only $5 per 6 months and reimburses up to $50 . That will make the tow bill coming later today smart less, at least. Though, if I had infinite time, I could have driven my car the rest of the way to the mechanic, 2 miles-and-let-it-cool-back-down at a time. I chose to get it towed instead.

I'd gotten to the DMV to renew my driver's license this morning, before the car died. Glad I didn't wait until after work, like I'd been thinking of doing... I've gotten ahold of the lady for hockey tonight and she said it's no biggie that I'll be missing as she had lots of late registrations, so I don't feel like I'm pissing her off. I feel infinitely better about that. I've found out we have the first volleyball practice of the summer-fall season on Monday at noon, with a little player shuffling which should make for a slightly more interesting team. In short, in spite of the car crapping out I'm still in a very chipper mood and today is going alright anyway. Bad mood, take that. :-P
