Max's Miscellaneous Musings

Yesterday, I took my car in for a service.  The 100K service was $666.  Then, I got a call from them telling me the brake pads were fucked and needed to be replaced.  Add another $600, for a total of $1270-odd.

I have never resented my car quite as much as I did at that very moment.  I found myself seething, thinking things like "I could buy a whole new bloody commuter bike for that much!".

I'd just paid off my credit card, too   Whenever my credit card balance is zero, it's like the world detects some minute imbalance and needs to fix it by giving me some enormous bill that absolutely can't be ignored or avoided.

GRRR!!!!
