Not really. First you have to figure that anything that strands me on the side of the road is ultimately going to require IDS to reset various computers so a dealer visit is pretty much necessary.
The service plan is free for the first two years, covers towing, up to 2 nights in a hotel, offers assistance in changing travel plans and extends the courtesy car made available for a full week past completion of repairs.

I try......most of the time it doesn't pay off nearly as well, but it's still the right thing to do.

Sunny. Gorgeous weather today with even a breeze. I love AZ this time of year! It is gonna get hot soon though. Only several more weeks of this and the mercury is gonna start climbing.

Sounds like your neck of the woods is getting some ugly weather?

Where's Flieger? I like him and his intelligent talk. Not saying anything about the rest of you. He just oozes smart.

Yes, no fun here. Wind is starting to pick up, bad lightning to the south of us. Hoping our internet doesn't go.... Although I did just get some school work done, so I'm safe there.

Thanks for asking, Tweeze. I was catching up on sleep. Since last Saturday I've been in the shop til about 11PM, going to bed after dinner at 12:30-1 and getting up around 7AM. I noticed that I was becoming less and less functional. Finally got a 4 hour nap in just now. Feeling much better. That is about 2/3 of the sleep I got this morning/last night.

I took out my recycling a little while ago. Now I just keep thinking about the Doors song "People Are Strange". For some reason random people will occasionally say "hello" to me. Then if I respond with "Hi" or "Hello" there is awkward chuckling from them. If I say nothing, there is scoffing laughter behind my back. I just can't win. People really are strange when you're a stranger.



I also had to do laundry. I haven't done laundry for a couple weeks. I finally ran out of clean clothes for tomorrow.

Hope everything turns out fine for you and you can just enjoy the show.

School work. I need to do that. I really need to do that. It's due on Wednesday. I hope I don't have to work in the shop tomorrow. I should at least be rested though.

I mentioned this to my music teacher today. He did not seem to remember this spiel but he did remember Steve Allen of course. I sent him the link and he liked it.

Night all time to turn in. Nice and sunny here. Can't wait to go home and rub it in a bit at work.

Good night. It was a beautiful day here. Springtime is so nice because of how the rolling hills become green. I am always awestruck by how it looks so "fairy tale" beautiful around here. I can scarcely believe it is real.

Max,

Heard a rumor that Ed, owner of the Rock Store, passed away tonight.
