Da trouble wit cars



So my tags expired in May and I went through extraordinary measures to get the new ones. First it had to be inspected. So I went downtown to get it inspected by Firestone. Once there I waited 2 hours to get it inspected and once they did inspect it they found there were NO rear breaks so they replaced those, but they also found a large hole in my muffler. They do not do mufflers there so I had to go back to midtown to get to CarX which sucks. The mechanics are all sleazy greasemonkeys unlike the fine gentlemen of Firestone. Also they cost me a whopping $205, which including the $150 price at Firestone brings me to a grand total of $355. Guess how much the check from my work-study jobs were that I had deposited that morning. $353. So that was A LOT of money that I spent last week. Including the mattress set that I bought (P bought the frame) I don't even want to talk about it. Glah!
Also new this week switching from Depo to da pill, wanted the patch but they said they could not keep enough stocked up, so it was a choice between Nuva-ring which grossed me out a bit or the pill. Reasons for the switch: 1. Weight gain (15 pounds, with no change in diet or exercise over a years usage) 2. Pain for a day or two in the arm they gave the shot to. 3. Read studies about how long it takes for a woman to get pregnant after going off the shot (average of 8 months, they say you shouldn't even attempt it before being off the shot for 6 months) The lady at Planned Parenthood asked my reasons for going off the shot, and I told her it hurt my arm, she said "Oh you should get the shot in the hip" and I'm like, "well they kept telling me to get it in the arm, and they just switched my arm each shot" she says "well, sorry". Here is what I did to the pill container to jazz it up.
