Our car has seen some sad times lately. I already mentioned the registration incident. But now in addition to that, our front wheel seems to be bent. This is what the tire guy told me when I asked if they'd balance the tires. Apparently a balance problem would show up at freeway speeds, and ours only shows up at really low speeds. I may have run over the curb a couple times, and that may have contributed to this problem.
AND we went over to play games at Heidi's house this weekend, and their neighbor backed into our side door. Fortunately, they have very kind neighbors, and they fessed up and gave us insurance and contact information. Unfortunately, it still means we'll be without our car for 3 days. And even if we get a rental (which is usually the case), it's still kind of inconvenient. I suppose that's why we generally try not to run into each other's cars.
In good news: we went out for Korean food this weekend. Kevin's mom is in town to help with our new nephew-- and also to take us out for Korean food. I like it a lot, especially the beef bulgogi. I even like kimchee, even though I honestly don't chow down a lot of it. We had Korean friends in our ward last year, and they made us bulgogi and kimchee. I ate most of the kimchee. Kind of good, in the same way pickles are good. You don't go to town eating the whole jar, but occasionally you just pop one in your mouth and eat.

I'm the first to leave a comment! Wait.. maybe thats because I'm suposed to be working.
Sorry about the car. That is SO frustrating. They are such a nesesary evil.
mmmm, i love bulgogi. I like the spicy one, is that the beef or the pork? I think pork. I think beef is sweeter and I don't like that... and kimchee is not for me... you can have mine
We had the same kind of tire problem with our Taurus. We were on our way to visit Miriam one weekend and we stopped in Beaver so I could pee. While Clint was waiting for me, the guy at their tire place offered to fill up our tires. He found that our tires were worn out really badly on the inside and could be on the verge of blowing. So, we ended up getting new tires before we continued on our way. When we got back to Provo, we had it looked at and we found out that the car frame was probably bent a little bit. So, we never fixed it and our front tires get worn down on the inside more quickly than normal. We do need new front tires again (even though we shouldn't need them yet) but our car hasn't moved in a while since the cold killed the battery. Anyway, that was long, sorry!
