the work days zooming by quicker now have caused my perception of time to goof up a bit. annoying how my life is slipping by, but at least i'm less annoyed about most of it now. i really don't even remember any night from last week except fri night. julie and i were going to stop by the library for some free movie rental action, but they close early on friday. so we stopped by media play and goofed around in there for a good bit. oh, i actually went out for lunch on friday with two guys i work with. kinda nice to get out and have some conversations with them. um, but friday night julie and i did nothing else after coming back home. which is good sometimes. sat we got up and tried to figure out if my parents were coming up, and how to try and get the bimmer fixed and the oil changed in the honda all in one day. we were going to take the honda to trickett up in rivergate; at least this one time. so taking it all the way up there was gonna be out of the way and take a good amount of time. so we decided to take the bimmer to pep boys sun morning and just shop around in rivergate. so, anyway we get the oil changed, try to shop around rivergate a bit, but it's so bloody crowded up there that we wind up going over ot holllywood 27 to watch kill bill. i found it rather odd that julie wanted to see this movie, but i couldn't argue with her wanting to see something that i too wanted to see. so we went, and the matinee cost 6 bucks for some reason, but it was a good movie. and i think julie liked it well enough. for some reason i started getting a busting headache when we went into the movie, so when it was over i was dying. we came straight home, i took 4 ibuprofen and layed around a bit. the headache eased up a bit, but then came back and i had to take 2 more ibuprofen shortly before going to bed. i think sat we watched the cubs game. i don't remember much as my head was imploding at the time. sun i took the bimmer over to pep boys as i said i would; basically the clutch seems to be..not slipping in the usual sense, but causing the car to shake and shudder when i'm letting the clutch pedal out in 1st and 2nd gear. not so much in the other gears, and not so much after i drive it for a bit. i'd noticed the brake fluid light coming on now and again around curves and up/down hills; reading my manual and looking online i determined that supposedly the the brake fluid resevoir is shared with the clutch fluid somehow...i was questionable on this as i was pretty sure the fluid in the transmission was rather specific and seperate, but thought i'd give it a shot. so i had the brake fluid flushed out, refilled, and bled. but this morning it still did the same thing. gonna try and contact my guy out in the boonies near carthage and see what he has to say about it. but after that on sunday morning, juile and i got groceries, came back, and made some pizza. trish called while we were finishing up the pizza and wanted julie to go shopping with her. so she came by and took julie away for a bit. i played with the computers a bit, and when she was back,..we watched something i thought. then she watched alias. then we watched the buffy musical on a rerun, then an angel rerun.
it seems to be rather warm in this room for some reason.
will prolly be going to bill and pam's on the 31st for a halloween party, as shannon is wanting to have a game the day after. not sure how julie and i will work that as she'd like to go to the party, but not sit around my parent's house all the next day by herself. only way around it is for both of us to drive, which seems a bit much really. i dunno.
