Shouldn’t complain about my day, compared to my friends days and weeks, though I have to admit it hasn’t been great. Today we turned in my car (finally). It will be fixed by Friday (we hope). The rental agency we had to go through is a small independent dealer. In other words – they suck. I ended up getting this huge Ford Focus Wagon. A station wagon! I swore I would never be caught dead in a van or a wagon and look at me now. I try to hide my face while I’m driving it, so no one knows this cool chick is driving an old fart car. Sorry if you drive one of those. I can’t see myself as cool driving that soccer mom contraption. All I think about is 5 kids, diapers, and Church on Sundays when I see them. Thats just not cool. For me. Not anyone else. There are probably a lot of cool moms out there that drive one, but if I were to do it, my coolness factor would go out the window.

The only thing I can’t complain about is the car being relatively new and all the neat technology inside it. I like the automatic locking mechanism. I don’t have to lock the doors from the passenger side. I have to in my own car. I also like the rearview mirror buttons. Those are quite fun to play with. The downside is how long the vehicle is and how I can’t see shit, when I’m backing up. I’m going to avoid parallel parking. I also don’t like that the rental agency doesn’t take good care of it. Its dirty inside and smells like cigarettes. That part sucks because they make me physically ill if I smell it. I felt a bit nauseated when I first got inside. Cigarettes also make me sneeze. So anyway. Its not so bad. Not as bad as when I first got in and couldn’t figure anything out. I hate that. One of my biggest pet peeves is not being able to figure out where everything is. At one point I almost had an accident, because I kept trying to use the wipers, but they were going crazy on me! They were in hyper speed mode.

Now for the shitty news of the day. The guy that hit my car is now on asshole status. At first, I felt sorry for him, because he has a construction job (which is mostly seasonal I’m sure) and two little boys. Well, I got a letter in the mail stating that he is contesting the ticket! When it was his fault! I was livid. I do NOT want to go to trial because of him. But it looks like I have to. If I don’t then the ticket might get dismissed and then his insurance might take back the money they gave us, to fix my car. If anyone knows anything about this, please let me know. If there is any way to avoid going to court, I want to hear it. Leilani might have her surgery that week too.
It looks like she is definitely getting her tonsils out. We don’t know for sure yet because she still hasn’t seen the ENT doctor. That appointment is next week on Friday. I think she needs them out, due to all her problems with snoring and the like. She is always getting sick. Her pediatrician thinks she needs them out. So, thats enough ok for me.
I had mine out when I was 9 and it wasn’t so bad. All the ice cream and jello I wanted and my own room. But I’m sure it will be more painful for Lani since she is only 5.
