Favours....

I get this urgent call this morning asking me if I can give out another favour..... DONE. Fedex out the door for tomorrow. You will probably see it on Thursday or Friday.....

It's been a very looooooooong day, it doesn't even feel like I had the day off.... did I mention I am suppose to be on vacation??!!??

Yet another favour.... my father's friend takes a look at my car and figures out that the wire is busted, that is why my window won't go back up. Total shock, this car is practically brand new. It's from 99. I'm the second owner. What a piece of junk. I had my RX-7 (built in 88) until two years ago and the car's power windows, never had a problem. Ok I guess I can expect much from VW ..... the mechanic had no idea how to put the panel / window back together. The car went into the shop at noon and I got it back at 6.30pm. I told my father, we should have brought it into a VW dealer. But noooo, my father thinks they would have overcharged us and he's getting a good deal, supposedly. I guess I can't really bitch about it because I am not paying the bill. Ok, suffer and say, yes, it's been a very loooooong day / night.....

Moans & Groans....

I am not cozing up to my father's wife too much. Sometimes, she drives me INSANE and today is one of those days. Kay and I were heading over to Richmond for lunch with my dad. My car was at the shop so we figured after lunch, the car should be ready but as you figured out, it wasn't... Anyways, she's got the day off and she wants a FAVOUR from my father, she wanted him to pick her up and drop her off at her friend's place because she is going to play MJ. Excuse me, does my father look like a chauffeur? Ugh. My father rings me up and asks if I could leave earlier because she needs a ride. I'm like CRAP. Fine, I won't do my hair. I drive over to the car shop, pick my father up, drive through Richmond, pick her up and then Kay & I find out, she's joining us for lunch. WTF? I have to sit through her chattering? I can't understand a word she says (she speaks mandarin) and her voice is so high pitched, after listening to her talk for 10 minutes, I swear, I have a headache. She treated us to lunch, which was nice because she never pays for anything. The whole day, I was waiting around. Waiting for my dad, waiting for my brother, waiting for my car and I still hadn't gone to Burnaby, to do a favour for you and I still had to go to M's so she could Fedex your package tomorrow.

I am tired. I am so ready to go to sleep. It's been a long day......
