Cleaning my house. Lord knows it must get done. The place is a shambles and I plan on spending Sunday doing it but after this, I'm getting a maid

I'm not looking forward to moving Saturday and missing the NFL draft. It'll be the first draft in at least a decade that I don't spend the day drinking beer and eating BBQ with my brothers.

I'm not looking forward to having to find a new place to live in 9 weeks.

I'm not looking forward to what my car repairs are going to cost me today.

Gah. I forgot that I have to go to the dentist tomorrow. The good news is that hopefully my teeth will stop hurting. But I'm not looking forward to damn dental anethesia which makes me sick.

The way so many teams are trading down, it looks like it's going to be a very weak draft anyway...........now moving, be it on draft day or not, that just plain bites.

I just have to share this update. My car was in need of some serious repairs. Most importantly, I needed new rotors and front brakes. The estimate I got from my local service station was $370. Also, my "Service Engine Soon" light came on last week. I asked them about that and they said they would diagnose it for another $75.

Well, these prices all seemed pretty steep so I called around a bit today. After being told prices in the $350-$400 range, I found a place in the phone book that said "Exact Quotes over the phone". I called and they said "$280" for the brakes and rotors. I took the car there. Everyone was very friendly and the car was ready exactly when they said it would. When I picked it up, (and this is a first for me) the counter person said, "The parts weren't as expensive as we thought so it will only be $260, including tax. Then, as I started to pay with cash, he said, "Oh, we offer a 5% discount for paying by cash." I saved even more money. THEN, when I drove away, I noticed that the "Service Engine Soon" light wasn't on. I looked at my paperwork and it turns out they diagnosed it and fixed the problem for free.

These people will have my business from now on. What I wasn't looking forward to turned out to be not so bad. I hope that is the case with what everyone has posted. Maybe it won't be as bad as you are expecting.

Awesome MBC!!! Where was this? PM me if you don't want to post. I'm always in the market for a good place to take my car.

Thank you for specifically violating the pessimistic intention of this thread. You have ruined my day because your dread didn't turn out as bad as you thought.

OK - I guess it's alright and I'm happy for you.
