The seller of my car is in flat denial that he sold me a lemon. I have no legal recourse. He is going to have surgery on his carotid artery again next week---let's see if he changes heart. My suspicion is that he knew it needed a new engine! Can't prove it, though ( Read more... )

Still in the old apartment. Heard from mechanic that the newer car will need another engine and he personally wouldn't recommend it, as its a 1999. Now I have to see if the seller will return the money as he promised ( Read more... )

So, yes, I'm moving today, and yes, I'm glad to get out of the mold-smelling, mustardy-baby cack-colored walls, but my office life has been in turmoil for two months.
