Anew

I bought my first car. I fixed up my web server. I woke up at 7:30 AM on a Saturday. Read on for more thrilling details.

I have been doing some major over-hauling on my server lately, and decided to switch (from a custom Wordpress installation on my own site) to Blogger. Through the process, I've lost all of my previous posts. This may be heart-breaking for some bloggers, but I'm not really a blogger, so it doesn't phase me. The way I see it, I'm at a brand new starting point. Again.

I recently made a rather large step towards being responsible... I bought myself a car. It was $800, has 200k miles on it, and needs new ... everything. This morning (at 8 o'clock !!!), I went over to the mechanic to have him check it out, see what could be done, and to see how much it would cost. He basically told me I should drive it until the wheels fall off, and then just buy a new (used) car.

After we had switched cars, my mom's car battery died in the parking lot. Turns out, it was the one they installed at the factory. Ten years ago. It couldn't have picked a better place to finally die! So, after that's all fixed, I got home, relaxed for a bit, then had to go out in Dad's car. After about ten minutes, I noticed some strange noise it was making. I got out, walked around, and promptly discovered the source of the strange sound: a flat tire. Today was not a good day for the cars at my house...

I just thought I should christen my new blog with a quick update.
My goal this time is at least a post a month. (Yeah, right!)
