Got a very interesting phone call today. Actually... I'm still on the phone with this interesting person. Who might it, you might wonder... it's

wildegirl_05. We've been on the phone for 2 hours straight. She walked through the dollar store and the grocery store with me while I went on a dog walk with her.

Just so you guys know... she's exactly like she is online. She says so am I and I have a great laugh. Oh wait... she says awesome laugh.

Also, we've sporked a magazine, movies and something at the dollar store. She saw a wookiee on tv and thought it was symbolic. I thought she was smoking crack.

I already told her this story but I'm going to tell you...

My day at the garage...by wook77.

I went to Midas to get my brakes fixed and an oil change. They had all these huge signs saying $69.99 per axle. So, I was expecting to pay around $150.00. After two hours of sittin gin the lobby with my car still in the parking lot, I finally got picked up by my family... we went shopping. Then, we spent two hours shopping with no call from Midas. Finally... Midas calls and tells me that i need a new air filter, brakes, wheel cylinders, transmission flush and yadda yadda yadda. I say... I changed out my air filter last month and got my transmission done 6 months ago... so we take that off the quotation (which I still have not heard at this time...) so the final cost of the brake job? $650.00. I was shocked and pissed (err, duh?).

I forcefully tell them that I am not interested and I will be there shortly to pick up my vehicle. When I get there, the guy meets me IN THE DOORWAY and proceeds to start yelling at me. I say back... "a bit of advice, next time you try to shaft a girl, offer her dinner first." He is speechless and starts sputtering. I say, "one more word and I'm not paying for the oil change." He makes a noise... and I put my pointer finger up and said... "one word" in this deep intimidating voice. He leaves and gets some other poor schmuck to deal with me. This guy just rings me up for the oil change and I bail.

It's a sad sad day when the dealership is cheaper than anywhere else. I hate my car. OK, wilde says... "oh my poor car" so I don't hate my car... I dislike it strongly right now. Wilde says... it's not my car's fault the people are asshats. And it's funnier to hear asshats in real life than just to read it. She makes me giggle.

BTW - Wilde has said "ewwwwwwwwwwww" about 15 times so far in our conversation. Keep in mind that my mother was present for most of it so I wasn't even that bad...

Soon, she will be the master and I will be the learner.

Highlight of our conversation... my mum says... "why are they talking about silverware?" when we were talking about sporking.

I wanted to put more highlights... but, err, I don't really remember them because we've talked about too much shit.

OH YEAH, so wilde got a massage by a flamboyantly gay guy named Leo. She said she wanted to call me mid massage and giggle with me. Maybe next time...

Wilde has decided I'm not allowed near sharp objects.

We talked about Lumos... just you people wait... you're going to kick us out of fandom by the time Lumos is finished... I can totally see that. Either that or one of the other of us will have to bail the other out of fandom jail. Wilde says... it will be her bailing me out ... I say oh well, sounds reasonable.

We've decided that calling each other is just like chat... only with voices.

We also just spent 5 straight minutes literally laughing our arses off.
