Some Loose Ends
July 15, 2008
I did a bunch of stuff today which at the same time, didn’t really amount to much. I got up early this morning to call my insurance company and to get a quote about my new car. They said $747 for six months of coverage. That’s alot but it turns out that it’s still cheaper then my parent’s policy. My father had already added it to his policy but we’ll probably change it soon.
I got rid of another cabinet from the kitchen. It only took about 2 minutes to actually pull out from under the counter and carry it outside. The most time-consuming part was cleaning up behind where it had been. It was disgustic with dirt and cobwebs. It wasn’t a hard task but it was kinda satisfying.
The main thing though was my dentist appointment. It was only supposed to be for a routine cleaning and for a reference to an oral surgeon. I need to get my wisdom teeth yanked and my normal dentist doesn’t do that. I hate going to the dentist because all they ever do is stab my gums with the little hook while trying to find the stuff I had already brushed, flossed, and mouthwashed into obliteration. And that sandy crap they “polish” your teeth with tastes like diabetes shit. There was no surprise in how any of that turned out. On my way over, I stopped by the dealership again to try and get a copy of the owners manual and the door remote but apparently, only the guy who we had dealt with was able to help and he was busy with another customer. I had to leave to make my appointment before he could help. I might try again tomorrow.
I did finally get to tell some of my friends about the car. Sommer was a major buzz kill. She is house-sitting alone for her parents and is lonely/depressed. I tell her the news and she’s like “yeah, ok, that’s nice.” It kinda pissed me off. I always help her out through her bullshit whining and when I finally have some good news, she’s so mired in self-pity over not to deal with her parents (who she finds smothering when they are around) to even feign interest. I didn’t tell her off but I should have. It kinda soured my mood for the rest of the evening. I think I might try that crap next time she starts complaining to me.
