Hello
OMG I get soooo stressed out when I go to get an oil change. Seriously every time I leave, I leave almost crying. They are like: you need this, this, this, this and this. I don’t know why it is so stressful for me. My mommy went with me this time thank God.
We went to Target and I bought a new trash can, clothes hamper and desk trash can. Just the cheap plastic kind. Rather than clean them I think it is easier to buy a new one. I also bought some brake fluid because Jiffy Lube said I needed some, but that they aren’t allowed to put it in. Now I need to ask my dad if he can. I bought some hand soap and body wash too. I haven’t been shopping in forever and I really didn’t miss it. I haven’t been buying anything other that what I need lately. I have NO desire to even shop. When I go to a store I go in and get what I need and get the hell out.
After all that I was exhausted and started to feel sick again so I came home. I am still feeling extremely sick to my stomach. I had a ton of sleep last night but I feel like I had none. Things that don’t normally bother me are starting to big time. I hope I continue to get better. We will see how I feel after I take the med I went down on at like 2pm.
The mail man just cheered me up… he had a package for me and he rings my doorbell and says “Thank God you moved to the first floor.” I think he has a crush on me and he is pretty cute. My mom has been ordering a ton of things off of eBay and I used to live on the 2nd floor, that’s why he said that. He is such a sweet heart.
I talked to Babz last night and Emily today. They always make me feel better ♥

I DON’T FEEL GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t take this much longer. I feel like I am on the edge of losing my mind. As I was just typing this I ran to the bathroom and puked and now I am shaking really bad. I am very bad off.

Hmm…I’ve gone to do oil changes with Emily on her car before and it doesn’t seem like a big deal. It’s really easy
Why aren’t the Jiffy Lube guys allowed to put brake fluid in? That’s odd. Are they scared of insurance liabilitiesl or something?
Heh. At least you have a mailman who actually talks to you
I don’t even think I’ve ever seen mine!

I’ve never had a problem getting oil changes, but I know when I go in to get my brakes done, I’m going to hear “Oh, but you needs X, N, B, and Y done too!!! We can handle it all for a small 600 dollars!” Ugh. This is why it’s always good to have a mechanic friend somewhere, who will look the car over and tell you what you *really* need and how much it should be.
I lol’ed at the mailman story - we never talk to ours, he just drops stuff off and goes. Half the time he doesn’t even ring the doorbell or knock if he leaves a package on the front porch.

Oh hun, I hope that your nausea wears off soon
*hug*
Ross changes the oil in our van. I get nervous when he does it because he parks it on a hump in the parking lot and crawls under. I always watch and I get so freaked out.

awwww, poor thing. I hope you feel better soon!
I think places like that just like to take advantage of women because they think they can screw them out of money. I know Angel went with some woman somewhere once, ’cause he was working on her car & it was under warrenty at the dealer, so he went there with her and they were telling her she needed this, this, and everything else done, and she didn’t. If Angel wasn’t there, they would’ve screwed her bad.
Ooooh, TARGET!!! You just my favorite word. haha.

Yeah they try to get you to buy everything. Just get the oil and leave. I always changed my own oil and etc. I love it not to mention when the tool slips and your knuckles smash against something, boy that tickles all the time lol! But yeah they try to sucker you in!
