For God's Sake, Give Me A Break!!!

My car is at it again. I just got it fixed a few days ago. Well, to be honest I wasn't quite happy with the initial job. Something deep inside me kept nagging me that it wasn't really fixed properly. True, those birds chirping and rats squealing went away for a bit. But I still wasn't really at ease. I've had that car for so long that I can sense it wasn't perfectly well yet. Call it a weird feeling or whatever you like but I just knew it would be going back to the shop.

True enough, the chirping and squealing came back a few hours later, though not as loud as before I sent it in but it was noticeable all the same. I knew it. I knew it wasn't alright yet! Why do my instincts have to be so darn accurate at times. And the sounds got even louder and lasted much longer than before. I drove back seething to the mechanic and gave him grief about a job not well done.

And he in return said that the sounds were from something else. Why didn't you fix it then, I countered in the most annoying and angry tone I could muster. I was feeling too down by then to even work up a screaming fit or anything. He said he'll look at it again. And since it was about closing time and being a Friday, I said I'll send it back on Monday.

And what happens? The darn fellow doesn't open shop for 2 whole days until today! So there I was left with a rather embarrassing squeal coming from my car everytime I turned left that even my younger boy was hiding his head way down low when I sent him to school. I don't blame him, I felt like hiding my head down low too from all the racket my car was emitting!

Anyway, I sent it over to him today and thankfully he is open today. The car us now jacked up on one of those whatchamacallit machines and has both the front tires and absorbers and whatnots removed and it doesn't look like it's going to be a cheap job. I wonder what I paid him to repair for the other day? What a waste of money when it didn't rectify anything at all!

Looks like my card bills this month is going to take a huge increase in debts. Like as if I don't have enough card debts to last me a lifetime already. Maybe I should go do a credit card comparison out there and see if there is one card that can help me reduce my card debts. And I was told that there is a site that provides one of the best credit card comparisons around and that I could check it out here: http://www.creditcardflyers.com/cards-by-credit.php?type=poorcredit. Who knows, maybe I should go and check it out.

Sometimes I think the world doesn't really like me all that much. It just loves to see me in misery all the time. Why can't I go through just one month without having to fork out good money for something or other. If it's not the car, it's something else. I even think there are some people up there assigned just to look out for me and everytime they see me breathing a little easier, they probably gleefully jump up and down going,

'Hey look, good old Nick is having fun again, lets screw his life around a little bit. What devious thing can we do to him today? I know, lets screw his car up again!'

Siggghhh, I'm really not in a good mood today and feel lower than pond scum right now. In fact I feel so low that I don't feel like blogging at all. I just feel like finding a nice cupboard somewhere and maybe discover a secret entrance that leads into a Narnia like land where I can escape all this crap for a little while.

'Good God, Nick! You must be feeling really lousy if you don't feel like blogging!"

Maybe later in the day or something when I find out what really is wrong with my car I'll do some blog hopping. In fact I think I'll take a walk there now (the shop is just a few doors away form my office) and see just how much further he can ruin my day. And I don't doubt that he can ...
