nano finished?
Posted Dec 1, 2011
i got a car.
it went so smooth (though not fast, lots of waiting in the dealership) that i can't even claim too many points for it. partly, it's because kish is a free trade zone with a lot less regulations. so it is a practically new but second hand korean car, bigger and lower than i wanted, but it is my very first car. (i'm not counting the rusted metal heap dad bought from a friend and put in my name. nope nope nope). driving was scary though.
we're getting tested for wiimax conection tomorrow. let's see what happens.

kish is supposed to have heavy but very short rainshowers - about 15 to 30 mnutes. so why did it rain for 9 HOURS straight?
at least we found about the leak in the main bath...
again me sorting stuff that had been just stuffed into the wardrobes and drawers, mom sewing curtains, the electritian/maintenance guy NOT showing up because (we found out in the afternoon) he'd been up until o'dark in the morning to fix the neighbours sewer pipe. another shopping trip with a couple of nice bargain and MORE shoes for mom.
some work and more lazing around, dracula: dead and loving it for dinner. in memoriam, leslie nielsen. i still can't believe he died.
money came finally through to my account here to buy a car, and i'm actually SCARED. i mean, after the year i had buying a house is like, so we need this, the contract is like that payment is like that nice meeting you. but a car? i know NOTHING about cars, i even stopped driving after my wrist broke, and the contact i'd relyed upon to help me is out of town. HELP!
overall health: 7 - some coughing
headache: -2 - no pills during the day
mood: 7
sleep: 5 + 1, because the thunder woke me up at 3 and at 4 mom decided to cheeck the entire house

hoooooo
biiig shopping expedition with mom - material for curtains, bedcoveers and furniture covers for mom to make, hardware, plastic stuff, new bed for mom, lamp for mom's room, groceries, then again off in the afternoon. mom after a lifetime of hoarding and being economic, is finally getting used to coddle herself and bought various cremes, including one made of snake poison enzymes, which makes for much hilarity since "snake poison" is considered a cuss word in farsi
