Every day.
Several times a day.
All hours of the day and night.
I hear it through my master bedroom wall. We're reported it to the apartment complex numerous times (after it woke me up at 7:30am on a Saturday morning) but they still do it. Grr. It's 10:45pm. Time to turn the fucking shit off
Car Problems...
We need to figure out something to do with our second car too. Been "parked" er, illegally for the last year and a half. It broke down, we didn't have the money to get it fixed so we let the tags expire and took it off the insurance. We backed it into a parking space and let it be. Well, now the complex has ticketed it with a notice they're towing it tomorrow. Nice of them to give us time to deal with it, hu? So we can either add it to our insurance (basically doubling our premuim) and then pay for a new tag, or we need to find a way to have it towed somewhere that it can be stored. I tried looking up information on what you need to do to legally store a car in the state of florida with no damned luck. An hour and a dozen pages later, I couldn't find anything. DMV, County Site, Tax Collector, State of Florida - nada. I had thought that if you had the car covered (as in one of those protective cover thingies) that it could "park" without valid tags (which we apparently should have turned in, oops.) but I couldn't find anything either way. Not word one. Found plenty of info for other states, but nothing for Florida. Anyone have a clue out there? Anyway, my Love's going to talk to them tomorrow and see if they'll give us a few days to try to make arrangements. Ultimately, we had wanted to fix the car, but we don't know what's wrong with it and this point, it would probably be like a few hundred to have it all checked out. We just never have that much available cash on hand. Which stinks because I don't know what we're going to do to resolve the situation. We could REALLY use having a second car again - it'd make me working a part-time job on a permanent basis a hell of a lot more possible - but, we just don't have the extra to get it done. It's one of those catch-22's: need the car to make money, but can't make money without the car. *sighs* Just another thing to stress out over. Joy.
Friday
Oh thank goodness tomorrow's Friday. I can't wait for the weekend. Getting out from under those damned lights for two days and sleeping in. (Though Sunday we have to get up and head out to my Love's family Easter brunch.) Tomorrow is also pay day for me so while it's little more then pocket change, it's a little extra to help tide us over for the week. Always a good thing. They interviewed someone on Wednesday but the owner seemed not to really like her - heard him on the phone with his dad saying he wasn't all that impressed - so I think the search continues. As much as I can't wait to sleep in again, and as much as these lights are just killing me, I really want the job to last as long as possible to help bring in some extra income. It's so easy if it weren't for the transportation issue (me needing to get up at 7am so I can get my Love into work before I come back, get myself ready and then get in for my own 9am start time. Makes my day a LOT longer then just the four hours I'm there) and the lighting. I have so very little actual work to do that it's impossibly easy. Albeit very, very slow and boring. Better then hectic and stressful though.
Well, I need to hop in the shower and get ready for bed so the longer I do this, the less sleep I'll get. Better head off for now. Night to all.
