I hope you don't lose your lunch...
A friend of mine sent me a hilarious short clip she did on JibJab which featured her husband. I knew that if I did one with Joe he would never forgive me.

Babysitting tip #11
It's a splendid thing that Zane is so good natured (and does everything Tarty tells him to do...)
Seriously, Joe and I took Zane to the zoo and out to eat yesterday so that his momma could have a break. She is 6 months preggers with Zane's little brother who Zane has named "Alec Alec", at least for this week.
Check out Zane on one of the last shows with Z Frank. It's hillarious!
The Old Gray Mare has Shit the Bed
My 91 Ford Mustang has finally had it's last breakdown. Oh, I am sure I could get it running again. Maybe a whole new engine and transmission, and of course some body work here and there. I think I will just eulogize it on Craig's list and see if there is a Mustang enthusiast out there who might want it for parts.
By the way, the phrase "shit the bed" is a slang term used commonly in New England. It means "died" or " broken beyond repair" and is in reference to...well, I will let you make that connection all by yourself. I guess it is rarely if ever used out here in California because Joe always cracks up when I say it.
Back to the car... Where I should be feeling a sense of desperation at not having a car, I am instead feeling a sense of relief. I will have to rely on public transportation for a while but I can handle that. It also provides incentive to finally get that bicycle out of the garage and get it fixed. Not only will I get more exercise, which I can surely use, but I will also get incentives from work. Pretty cool, eh?
I've always resisted buying a new car and instead have purchased used from private folks. It's always been decently running cars that lasted 4 or 5 years before heading to the junk yard. I don't know why I have preferred this but I think it's time to buy from a dealer. I want something that will last a bit longer, without having to put major repairs in. I think something with a warranty would be nice too.
But I am in no hurry. I think I will wait until I am so sick and tired of taking public transportation that I am ready to pull my hair out.
Yeah, that's the ticket.
