The Cost of Travel
January 17, 2006 - 3:14 p.m.
Two new tires, plus mounting, balancing, and all that crap
Fee to dispose old tires
New something-or-other belt
New battery
New cluster control. This baby alone cost $340. Without it, my airbags would not deploy in the event of a collision, so, good to have.
Computer diagnostic evaluation
Total Suckage: $877.93
Will that be cash, check, or charge, or do you just want to bend over?
At least the car is paid for. That kind of repair bill on top of monthly payments would be doubly insulting.

Good News: Kelly doesn�t hate me for life. I received an email joke from her this morning. The joke was lame, but I was relieved to see that she is at least on emailing terms with me. And that hefty repair bill is just one more reason not to go on vacation this winter. Road travel should be good for a while, though.
