Home again, home again to buy a fat pig (or whatever)

June 26, 2008

I am home.

Yay!

The mechanics got my car fixed yesterday by closing time and so I was able to get home in time to have dinner with my family and get everyone (including myself) tucked into bed.  Finally.

The best news of all is that the total bill came to $275 instead of $900.  It turns out that when they ripped the car apart, my timing belt was fine. So, they just replaced the O2 sensor and all is well.

It does suck because I think it cost me another day being stranded but in the end I would prefer this outcome. While I loved getting to spend time with people that are all kinds of awesome I really, really, REALLY missed being at home.  (To answer some of the questions and emails, Jon and I did discuss him coming to get me. It wasn’t THAT far away but due to the fact that this mechanic was the closest Volkswagen mechanic to our home,things with our other car, the number of trips it would take and how much gas would come to, we decided I should just stay put.)

Anyway, I have a million things to do. Jon did a good job keeping the house up while I was gone, but I am totally out of food in the house and then I have to review my lines and music because I have another show tonight.  I am totally grateful that I didn’t have any shows during this whole thing. That would have been horrible.

Oh, and I ordered my business cards for BlogHer. I placed the order for 100 from moo.com, but thought about it and decided that I should have more on hand just in case. I am debating ordering another 100 from moo or ordering some plain cardstock ones that are regular size. Dunno.

I’m also worried that I may have been a wee bit too cheeky on them.

Here is the front:

On the back?

Now I just have to decide if I am brave enough to actually hand them out to people.  Maybe I’ll leave the wittiness off of the next set I order.

Stumble it!
