Nope...it ain't.
*WIN* for stupid people.
I know......it isn't fair.
yeah. Just means I need more beer for the week.
My Fiancee laughed and scoffed when I said I wanted to have a separate bank account for emergency funds, appliance replacement and vehicle maintenance (that also has insurance deductibles for each vehicle in case we are unlucky enough to get in accidents with all 3 cars).
Just got a call saying she got stuck at the store and her battery was dead. Her dad was coming to rescue her to take her to the auto store to get a new one. She then thanked me for having that vehicle account so she could buy a new battery today.
She owes me a![]()

And this is why I fucking HATE auto parts stores! The clerks are fucking useless! I told my Fiancee to make sure she gets the battery for the 2.4L model because it will be a larger battery.
I called after I saw they paid for hte battery and asked about it, and she started asking how they tell what size engine it is. I told her it was the 2.4L model and asked why. She said the new battery was half the size of the old battery.
Now she gets to take it back, and hope that they'll exchange it and give her the new battery. Luckily, I'll be home in the morning to take her to work if they won't. I have my way with people. I WILL get the new battery if they don't give it to her. Apparently all they did was take out the old battery and put the new one in the tray and saw the difference, they didn't even hook up the terminals yet.
Maybe this experience will finally allow me to convince her to let me teach her to drive a manual. My truck and my MINI are both manual and she can't drive them, so if her car breaks down (like today) she can't just take another car to work. If I had my way too, her car would be manual, but she bought it before we met so...

Ha, no idea. Her dad was with her and he knows his way around vehicles so I didn't think we'd have a problem. Sigh, things like this always happen to her when I'm on a work shift.
For instance, Friday night after I left, she was cleaning up the bedroom, she saw a vinegaroon behind the bedroom door and started freaking out. She doesn't even like moths, so this thing nearly gave her a heart attack. She had to call her mom to come take it outside and her mom started tormenting her after she picked it up and was on her way to carry it outside. I'll have to applaud her mom when I get home for doing that to her![]()
