So first the whole million dollar jetta radiator hose disaster, and now this....
Wife comes home, I take my truck and go to costco(warehouse store), if you don't know. I pick up this sweet 10 x 20 foot portable garage to house my FD. Metal poles, quality fabric, even has all 4 sides, including a zippered door. all for $165. So I bring it home, and unpack it so I can assemble tomorrow. <span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>It Would be nice if they put some ******* instructions in the box!!!!</span>
Oh yes, to quote ice cube,,,"today was a good day"

I know the feeling. 20Min before I get off, one of the employees quit. boss tries to get me to stay till 7 am (I've been at work since 3PM and go back to work at 3PM tomorrow) and gets pissed when I tell him latest I'll stay is 12:30-1:00 since I've only had 3 hours of sleep.
Find out I'm not going to get my car back for almost another week.
Mechanic tries to talk me into buying his Car, for $2,900 (and he'd give me $1,400 for my car if I buy it) which seemed good seeing its in decent condition. look it up, and its only worth $1,460, where mine is worth $1,310 ($150 less than his, why would I pay him an extra $1,500?)
My ride home cancled on me so i get to take a nice hike to my friends house (what the hell, its only 4-5 miles) to pick up his moms car since she's out of town, so I can get to my house.
Ahh, atleast my mom said she's got some thing waiting at home for me so I can get drunk tonight.
