On the school/nursery run earlier, four kids in the car, bucketing down with rain, and I couldn't get him into gear And then there's this wrench flashing on the dashboard and messages saying 'Check your gearbox!' and 'Go to garage asap!' Managed to persuade him to get us home, but he's booked into the garage on Wednesday and they told me not to drive him in the mean time
Last night I had a dream that didn't turn into a screaming nightmare - first time in weeks
Odd though..... I dreamt that Martin asked me to 'pop over' to Vangroovy for dinner, because he wanted to talk to me about the Special Features on the S3 dvds Of course, in the dream the flight only took 5 minutes There was talk of tennis balls and tanks. He said there was a lot more footage of the T55 but he wasn't sure if people wood actually want it all on the dvd I told him if people didn't want to see it, they didn't have to watch it, but could we please please pleeeeeze have it all? I remember eating prawns (shells off ) drinking water, and laughing a lot, but that's about all. I don't remember coming home.

Oh noez! I hate it when cars get sick. Do you have a happier-days pic of woody to share so we can send good mechanical vibes?
My baby:
Spoiler:
Yes, this is what happens when you don't have children. Cats and cars become your babies. *goes in search of babydaddy*
Oh nice motor MOB. There's a C reg (1982ish) mini for sale up the road that keeps tempting me. No tax because it's over 25 years old... hmm!
I need something nippier than the Woohoomobile, after all. As great as a 7 seater is, it's a beast!
(And, yeah, I sort of temporarily nicknamed it the Woohoomobile for now, since I can't think of a better name for it and, face it, come February, it will be fulfilling that purpose quite nicely. )
@ 'warrantee' Is that a cross between Warranty and Guarantee? New WooHoo word?
Yes, something like that. I couldn't work out what the spell checker could not find the word "warantee" and my body is in mid-afternoon Iwanttosleep mode right now, so I couldn't quite work out what was wrong with the word so I thought "meh, they'll know what I mean - it's a woohoo thing."
EDIT: I swear I need to move to Spain or Greece or something where they, very sensibly, go back to bed in the afternoon. I am always so ready to have a nap around 2pm. Not much chance of that with the little man running riot around me, though. Wonder if he'll notice if i just close my eyes...

Oh niiiice! I used to have an all black mini, back in.............. um......... 1977 it must have been, because I used to have great fun trying to squeeze behind the wheel when I was pregnant with Jo

You should at least try to take a nap, maybe you will actually get some sleep

1. Thx! I bought her when I was in MW school and had to commute out of the city to my clinical site. My dad tried to convince me to buy a Kia, but I quickly put an end to that. Minis are fairly reasonable, and after being a starving artist for waaaay too long, I needed to buy the car I wanted. I'll drive her into the ground, though. I don't plan on wanting/needing a new car for a looooooong time. I can totally put a baby car-seat in that car.
2. Seems only fair.
3. Italy too. One of my favorite things about the 2 summers I spent there.
.... but I guess that does at least keep him 'on topic'

3. I have no trouble resisting expensive boots, or any other kind of footwear. Oh, didn't we already have the barefoot conversation?
Oh well.....
1. Awesome!
2. I adore my mini. Can't wait to try driving around in her with a big baby bump.
3. Yep. Barefoot is my preferred mode, but alas, I adore shoes too. It's more shoe-envy than anything else, since I can barely stand in most of the shoes I lust after. And I live in a city where you walk nearly everywhere. And I have a walk-around job. You can be sure if I sat at a desk all day, I'd have some hard-core stilettos.
ETA: Did I mention that I came home from my run to find my cats listening to baroque opera? There was no music on when I left...
Because I just dropped off some icons over at the artwork thread, I thought I'd come over here and say hi!!!
Hope you all are doing well. I've been suuuper busy with school and work and haven't had too much free time... Also, been busy watching Farscape (*looooves so much* ) which was Jas's fault!
And I thought I'd come and throw out some picspam while I'm here.
