keep the car running

my new goal is to only title my posts with lyrics from songs. i've been doing it for almost 26 of the last 30ish posts...and here i'm sure you all just thought i was weird. which i am. but i'm just using someone else's weirdness to express my own.

ANYWAYS.

it's the time of year where i'm getting the car buying itch. and i think this is actually going to be the year where i do something about it. i've been salivating over the thought of a nice, shiny, new vw gti for a year. i think this years tax return will be enough for a downpayment on a car, license and insurance...and maybe a slurpee.

mmm, slurpee.

i think i'm going to get dressed (which is definitely a good idea), go get a slurpee (which is pretty much always a good idea), go browse my local purse shop (which is never a good idea), and then go to the car dealership (which is a fun idea).

do you know what word i can never spell? license. i always want to spell it liscense. or liscence. or lisence. i never get that frigging word right. like recipe. i always have to think about that one too. you'd think that at 24 years of age, one would have mastered the art of such simple words. i mean, i can spell words like 'osteoporosis', 'oxaliplatin', or 'kysabigfatfarthead'. but ask me to spell license? i'm at a loss for words. or letters.

i'd like to buy a consonant, pat.

i'd also like to buy some motivation. my house has been a wreck for like three weeks. maybe the fact that lynnie c is coming to visit next week will get my gears in motion. OR, maybe i'll just shovel a path to major areas of the house so she can find her way around. fridge, couch, bathroom. and maybe i'll buy some floor lighting - so like in an airplane, it will illuminate in case of an emergency so she can find her way out.

i really want that slurpee.

t minus 6 days to lynnie's arrival.
t minus 27 days to easter in calgary.
t minus 49 days to ottawa.
t minus 51 days to nyc.
t minus 72 days to may long in vancouver.

but who's counting?
