Not sure where I left off, so I'll go with this. Went up to hang with GRJ for NYE. Took my bass with my & jammed with her b/f & his drummer, that went pretty well. He was impressed with how quickly I caught on, and wants me to play with them. Not gonna happen, as it's a 1 hr drive, one way, and there's no way I'm driving that once a week with no compensation!
Was a decent time, but unfortunately, the transmission went out on my truck when I got there. I parked it and got a ride to her place. - no reverse, no neutral, and the forward gears were slipping a bit. Got ride back the next morning & gave it a try - it seemed to be making it alright going forward, so GRJ followed me for a bit & I drove it back to town. I had to park it in front of my house (since I have no reverse) and now I'm going to try to sell it cheap. All it needs is a used trans. and it would be a great truck, so I'm hoping someone who can do it themselves might be interested. I priced out a used transmission and, including labor, it would cost around $1600-1800... the truck isn't worth that much, so if I have to, I'll just drive it to the scrap yard. Was debating buying a new (used) truck right away, as the weather sucks now, but I'm still waiting to buy that Audi this summer, and I can't afford that, and the kind of truck I want, and still be able to buy my stupid countertops, so I'm going to have to break down & buy new tires for my Infiniti. I hate to spend the money (over $500) on a car that I'm going to sell this summer, but that's cheaper than the several thousand I'd have to spend on a truck (not to mention the few thousand I'll need if I want to make it back to Europe this year).
The holiday season really bummed me out again this year. I started to write about it, but I'm sure you could go back & find any number of my other posts to read that would explain it just as well, as things never change for me. Beyond tired of being alone, and beyond tired of thinking about it.
