THE GREAT HAMSTER WHEEL OF LIFE: car woes, Furlandia, etc!
4 months ago
OH HEY HI uuuuh turns out my lil scanner doesn't work anymore. I'll have to invest in another one down the line. XP
Maybe waaaaay down the line, because I'm about to have car payments for the first time in five years.
On Friday, March 21st, on my way home from work, I was involved in a five-car pileup in the Vista Ridge Tunnel. I managed not to hit the driver ahead of me until I got rear-ended. Fast forward: my car was totaled, despite basically only losing its bumper. I didn't notice a difference in its handling at all. It's going to take me a long time to get over losing that lil guy. Over nine years and 70k miles later, Ninja went to the big salvage auction in the sky. 😭😭😭
Anyone remember that junkyard scene from The Brave Little Toaster? ;__;
I've spent the last week or so Lyfting to work and my GAWD, it's a money-suck: $80 daily vs $10 daily driving myself to work (about 25 minutes from home). This past Friday, I FINALLY received my insurance payout release documents and should get my money on Monday or Tuesday. Then it's time to shop for a new car.
I've researched several, and my associate at CarMax is helping me with suggestions. I'm looking at used hybrids. If I'm being forced to replace my car, I might as well have a bit of futureproofing attached.
ON A HAPPIER NOTE: how the hell is Furlandia already next month?! Holy crap! :D
I plan on attending at least one day. My roomie has long been curious about furry cons, so we're going to celebrate her birthday with our local con! Who can I expect to see there? ✨👀✨

Sadly furlandia is gonna have to wait for me.
None of the furs in my area were willing to share a room, so i can't go this year.
Aww man, hopefully you can return to Furlandia when the time is right.
Thankfully, one of my longtime friends generously offered their printer-scanner! I'm eager to visit them and their bf when they drop it off. I can resume scanning soonish! >:D
