My break lights are now in working order, and it was free! I work up early and drove it down to the dealer. As I am telling him what's going on (or what's not going on, i guess), he tells me that it's probably the switch. Apparently, they see it all the time. And he proceeds to tell me I am lucky because sometimes they get stuck in park, although I don't know how that could happen since I have a 5 speed. I thought it was interesting he shared all of this with me. What else do you see all of the time? What can I expect to bring me in to see you next time? I really do love my car. It's a 2000 Volkswagen Jetta. It's green, has a sunroof, a 5 disc CD changer, and is just so very cute to look at. Shane and I bought it about a year and a half ago. I had a 1987 Acura Integra prior to that. It was a sweet liitle thing, but somewhat unreliable and I was commuting over an hour a day to SDSU. Now I hardly drive at all. We live about a mile from the hospital, which is where I seem to go the most. I get gas about once a month or so. It's nice to not have to drive so much. I don't have to deal with rush hour anymore. I don't miss that at all. I do miss Dave, Shelley, and Chainsaw every morning. I don't know how I could have stayed awake without them.

Wow. “Dave, Shelley, and Chainsaw” is a phrase that I recognized, but I couldn’t place for about fifteen minutes, as the last time I lived in NoCo was in, like, 1995. Funny how memory works.

I wish I could get gas once a month. But no, I have to live in Los Angeles and drive an hour or so to work everyday.
I often miss Dave Shelly and Chainsaw. Don’t get me wrong- I love Kevin and Bean also, but part of me yearns for the morning show of my youth.
