Ominous Thunder

Did I spell ominous correctly? I'm never sure. My English seems to be getting worse as does my French lately. I'm sure one or the other will soon turn around or maybe both if I'm lucky, but at the moment, I feel like a Man without a Language. It sounds like a movie title. Perhaps one day it will be.

So, updates... updates...

Oh yeah, the title of this blog post. Ominous (sp?) thunder has been... um... thundering outside of my office window for the last hour. At first I really thought the thunder was just the noise of construction equipment. For some reason, I don't recall hearing thunder like this before. Very mechanical sounding. Just another reason I sometimes believe that I live in The Truman Show. Fake sounding nature. So... what to say, what to say... nothing much to say actually. I'm just here at the office about two hours early because Amanda and I took my car in to have it fixed. The front passenger side tie-rod came off last week and we've just gotten around to having it repaired today. It won't be repaired today, of course, they said that it would probably be a week or so. Lucky for both of us that I have an extended warranty policy on my car so at least the parts will be covered. If the labor isn't covered, I'm hearing the cash registers ringing for about 400 dollars. I'll probably get new front tires and an alignment as well, because that's most likely what caused the problem in the first place. Ah, cars. What would my life be like without you.

Cheaper.
Easier.

Did I mention Cheaper?

Okay, gotta go waste time looking up ways to sell my body parts before the Estimate comes in.

A+
