Spark plugs and frosties

One of the main times I wish I had a man in my life is when something goes wrong with my car. I have my dad but he works a lot and I don't want to ask him to help me with stuff when he should be resting. So I guess I have to be the man. My car is not happy and I think it's cause the spark plugs need to be change. My car burns oil like a freaking mother and everyone's guess is that the oil has gunked up the spark plugs. So my mission this afternoon is to change them.

My roommate is the best. She brought me a frosty now for no reason. It's funny cause on the cup it says While you're at it bring someone you like, love, or admire from afar a frosty, because everyone likes doing what tastes right. And that's exactly what she did. We were saying how we wouldn't mind if someone admired us from afar and left us frosties on our desks. I once had a Mexican that would leave me a Coke and a banana or sometimes a snickers on my desk. It was sweet.

I had so many rants stored up from our long weekend of driving. So many things drivers do that piss me off.. but I think I'm finally relaxing. I'm making a special effort to not drive in the left lane unless I'm going fast enough and to move over when someone is behind me. It's really sad how mad drivers can make me. I don't know what it is.

I read an amazing book yesterday - Kite Runner. I'd seen it carried around on planes for months and someone finally lent it to me the other day. I finished last night and it made me feel really sad. I recommend you read it but not unless you are happy enough to stay happy after reading it. In other words, if you're already a little sad or down this book will take you the rest of the way. But it's powerful and turns out well. It's just sad cause of the things that happen in it and the fact that they are really happening to people every day.

On a completely different note, I don't understand how things just disappear in my house. I came home from work last week and took two things off and put them on the floor by the chair here and have not been able to find either since then. Where could they possibly be??? It's so frustrating. I have to do naps for the next 4 nights. Woo hoo. I'm going to be a tired girl.
