my car's been in the shop most of this week for some fairly serious (read: pricey) repairs. some thoughts on this:
--why do i always seem to wear white dresses whenever my car needs to go to the shop? the men at the corner station must think i'm the biggest princess.
--on a related note, it's REALLY uncomfortable/difficult trying to keep a white dress clean in a garage. try it sometime.
--the shop's owner is named buck brock--a really great quarterback name! which, i think, is all in the alliteration--colt mccoy, tim tebow, etc. (the notable exception being my perhaps #1 all-time quarterback name, johnny unitas--mostly because he sounds like a superhero.)
--walking is super-inconvenient. i'm all about slowing down and enjoying the moment, but when you get a little too caught up in TCB-ing, as i often do, walking somewhere is insanely patience-trying. it's pretty much impossible to multitask while walking--reading's out, and forget about writing anything. it's even hard to text at full walking speed, unless you want to end up like dexter strickland.
--then again, there's no real reason to rush anywhere in marlinton, and it was GORGEOUS out today. so really, what's there to complain about?
--when i went to pick my car up, nobody could find my key. it turns out they moved my car, left the key in the ignition, and left the car unlocked. considered having a freak out for about 1.37 seconds, then realized: IT'S POCAHONTAS COUNTY. nobody's going to steal the car.
--but really, it's pretty incredible. only place i know of where a car should, but won't, get stolen!
