+ Woke up early to go to the DMV and take my road skills knowledge exam for my learner's permit again. I have such horrible test anxiety that I fear I will be taking this exam for the rest of my life. Studied studied studied for a solid week beforehand and felt really prepared, only for them to tell me that the cameras weren't working so I'd have to come back. Fate either doesn't want me to ever drive or just didn't want me to take the test today for some reason... So I'll be going back next Saturday (at 8 a.m. X_X) to try to take it.

+ Went with my sister to get her car inspected. It failed the emissions test because the check engine light was on. Luckily, my sister's car is still under warranty, so we took it to the dealership to get it fixed. They told us it might take an hour or three. We gave them the keys and walked to IHOP for lunch. Then walked all the way back to our apartment... Then took three-hour naps. Still no call. So she called them. They had lost the paper they'd written her number on. Sigh. And they didn't have the part they needed. So no car till tomorrow. And we were stuck walking everywhere. So-o-o, we walked back to the dealership, got her other keys so she could drive the car at my parents' house, and walked back to our apartment. At this point, I wanted to do an angry dance. Then it started pouring down rain. Fabulous.

+ After we commandeered my parents' car (one of two), we went to Blockbuster and rented What About Bob? (funny!) and had Mexican casserole for dinner.

Today's movie title would be "Anti-Climactic" because we did all this stuff, went all over town, and nothing came of it. Except for Bill Murray and casserole.

But that's okay. There are much worse ways to waste a Thursday.

So I discovered a baby tick on me a while ago and I've been panicking about it but I looked it up and I'm fine. It was on a previous bug bite, so no bite from it. No scary bulls-eye ring thing. No sick feelings whatsoever. Whew.

The thing I'm wondering is... How the hell did I get a tick on me in the morning? The only answer I have is that it was on something in our apartment. That's scary. o_o The good thing is that, so far, that's the only one I've seen. The cats and chinchilla are fine.

WTF.

"He's not a tick OR a dick!"
