exsequar: (SN Boys so happy together)
I went to my first KICKBOXING CLASS tonight! SO AWESOME. The teacher is perky and cool and fun, and it was just a really lowkey environment and a great cardio workout for an hour. Woo! I'll be doing that once a week for the rest of the semester. AWESOME.

I'm still depressed about BSG.

I accidentally stumbled on a mild spoiler for SPN 2x20, and OOOOOOH. SO EXCITED. *FLAP FLAP* Alas, today is not actually Winchester Day, but ONLY ONE MORE WEEK! Wahoo!

I'm having my first Being a Car Owner drama! My headlights are BOTH dead, which my father has hypothesized is because a fuse died in my car. Of course this had to happen a few days before I have to drive 5 hours, mostly in the dark, to get home for spring break. SIGH. I'm going to go to Advance Auto Parts to try to get it fixed tomorrow. I am nervous. Wish me luck!

Um, that's all? Yes, random post. Talk to me, people! \o/
exsequar: (SN Impala BACK IN BLACK BABY)
I just saw a super awesome commercial for Chevy! It had snippets of all these different songs that mention Chevies, along with people singing along and loving up on the appropriate cars, and one of them was Elton John's Crocodile Rock - "Had an old time Chevy and a place of my own" *sings and dances* And there was this guy CARESSING a dark grey 60's SS of some kind - probably a Camaro, maybe a Chevelle - at a classic car show and DAMN it was hot. I WANT A MUSCLE CAR!! *drools*

Speaking of cars, my not-so-hotass but still my own '99 Subaru Legacy gave me one hell of a time today. You may recall that her headlights are out. So I went to look at the manual to find where the fuse box is so I could check if a fuse was blown. I found the box under the hood (first time I've popped her hood! Aw) and located the right fuse. However, I couldn't check it without pulling it out, and for that I needed a fuse puller - which was located in the OTHER fuse box UNDER THE DASHBOARD. Which I needed a screw driver to get at. So I went over to Facilities and Operations to hopefully find a man to take pity on a hapless young girl with car woes. There was a really nice guy there who took a look, determined it was not the fuse, and posited that it was the bulbs, which somehow magically went out at the same time.

SO! I drove to Advance Auto Parts, bought two new bulbs, and REPLACED THEM MYSELF \o/ My hands got all filthy and everything, it was awesome. (God, I would love to know more about actually working with cars.) Then I tried the lights aaaaaand... still not working. The brights were still working, so I know I installed the bulbs correctly. Conclusion? it's an electrical problem and I need to take my car to the shop.

SIGH.

What this means is I can't drive home until Saturday, since I can't drive in the dark tomorrow. But that's okay, cause i'll spend the evening with my lovely Michelle and maybe Rob if he decides to stay, so it should be fun.

I need to name my car. Hmmmm.

And now time to watch an episode of SGA with commentary - yay!
