dolariHORRORS!
I woke up and pulled out the Dreamcast, so I could check my Email. Stupid Jenn-Jenn had brought the Dreamcast, but not the powercord! HORRORS! I did borrow my sister's powercord from her Playstation 2. That got it started...but now I'd forgotten the video cord. AARRGGHH!!
My mood brightened though, when I saw the Loot:
A Brandspanking New Playstation 2!
Woohoo!
I can play Puzzlefighter again! YES!
I finlly logged onto my EMail (on my sister's virus-ridden spyware-snooping pop-up-hell of a computer) to find that Jenni had given me $25! Alongside Nathan's $50, That's $75 I didn't have before! Hot diggity!
The day, though, had a SERIOUS downturn at the end. My father wanted to check out the freeze plug on the truck. No problem. He saw it was definately not set in correct and would fix it tomorrow. Then he checkd he oil, and said there was no oil in the truck. I told him I had just put in three quarts. He added a fourth quart, and still said there was no oil in the truck. I showed him the dipstick, which was WAY above full. I showed him the empty oil cans in the back. He refused to believe me. Said there was no oil in the truck and refused to hear me out and even refused to believe the dipstick.
Somedays, my dad just WANTS a fight. This was one of those days. I refused to fight him, and simply took the truck out to Steph's (she had an extra Dreamcast video plug) and back. No problem. When I got back he was waiting on me, mad. I told him the truck was fine, it had FOUR QUARTS of new oil. He didn't care...he was mad that I was questioning him. Then he told me to fix the freezeplug myself, since I obviously knew so much about trucks.
We didn't speak the rest of the day.
I still didn't get the video plug for the Dreamcast...she had left a powercord out, no a video cord. Oops. :)
