Punchy.
I seem to be complaining again, but I’m really in a good mood. Honest. Oddly, I’m almost giddy; in a cynical, dark, almost irreverent kind of way. Does this seem contradictory?

Car trouble.
As some of you may already know, Cheryl’s car and I do not have a very good relationship. I hate it. I can only assume it hates us, based on it’s abhorrent behavior. Lesser mortals would have lost their patience long ago, though I must admit that I came close many moons ago. This week may have been the alternator that broke my patience’s limit. Sure, six alternators in six years sounds like a lot, but taken with the car’s otherwise repugnant history, it’s a mole hill on the mountain. This week we’ve installed numbers five and six, but I wouldn’t bet on us buying number seven. It’s high time we parted ways. Now if I can just convince our budget to play ball…
What is the most frustrating thing that a car could do to you? How about quitting on you far from home? How about doing it twice in four days? Can an inanimate object be euthanized?

It’s here.
Monday saw the debut of the iTunes Music Store. My favorite computer maker has started an online music download store, and I was eager to try it out. The first day I spent five dollars on music, more money than I’ve spent on music in some time. Sure, five dollars isn’t much, but it’s more than I would have spent before. What’s more, I likely will spend even more money that I wouldn’t have spent before. As the hardest working man in show business once said, “I feel good.”
