hit 2 deer =(

Well last night on the way to town -- to go coupon shopping -- I hit 2 deer. Yes 2 !! One right after the other (about 2 sec. between). I was going about 60 mph and not paying real close attention -- I was thinking about all the great deals I was going to be getting.

Plus you can't see crap that's in the ditches because no one has mowed the highway edges this year -- that grass is REALLY tall. But I would of never thought it was tall enough to hide 2 deer!

The car now looks like this -

I was planning on trading this car in on a new/different car -- NOT NOW! The hood is ruined, although it still latches. The headlight cover and brights light bulb need to be replaced too. Oh and the most lovely part? there is a small hole in the radiator. That's always fun & cheap to replace -- NOT!

But everyone in the car is fine, no injuries or anything. I'm thinking everything went smoothly because of the profile of the car.

The deer, unfortunately, are both dead -- instantly (thankfully!). I feel bad that they died but glad it was quick.


Darkside got called in to start working -- YEA!! But now we need him to be working on the car -- figures! UGH! He should be able to get it fixed in the next day or two.

play with a computer

Do you know what else I did this weekend? I got to play with a computer that wasn't mine -- it was a complete mess! I LOVED every minute of it!

Don't get me wrong, it aggravated the hell out of me -- but I got it fixed in the end! I spent 16 hours on it over 3 days altogether.

After taking it in and not saying how much I would charge to fix it, I realized how badly I needed to set up a charge system. So when I returned the computer to it's owner I told them - "sorry but I am charging you $25 - this time, next time will be MUCH more!"

Here's what I come up with - $25/3 hours of work | +$25/any editting of system files by hand

I've been hem/hauling around about doing some work for SR's brother because I wasn't sure what to charge --- now I know!




But I sure do love going through someone else's cp & deleting all the stuff that is built up!

going out to the bar

Wow I just realized it's been couple days since I lasted posted! I'm slacking! LOL!

It's because every weekend we've been going out to the bar with SR. Even though that's only on Friday & Saturday nights I usually spend Sunday recovering LOL! then I get knocked off track.

You see except for recently, we've not had the opportunity to go out to the bars. Well there was that time back in 2000 when we went 3 times.... of course I had just turned 21 that year....

But SR goes every weekend - hardly ever misses actually. He kept harping on us to come up and meet all his friends, so we caved. And since then we've been going regularly too.

Although I hate to admit it, it's quite fun! I love being able to see people I knew in a past life and see how they've change (good or bad). I also love people watching. Oh and one of the best parts - listening to music at a loud setting!

But that's the reason I keep getting thrown off on my regular posting =)
I'll try harder this week, promise!
