Things sometimes look better in the light of day

The car doesn't look or drive any better today (I don't think)but I'm really trying to get back to the Marta I like to hang with. I'm moving on to what needs done to make me feel better about this transaction. A good detail job, some TLC from Swede One and my CD player installed would be a good start. I'm hoping that the car wash near NW is open today. It takes two hours for a complete in and out detail job. I could drop it off before rehearsal and get it in the hour between rehearsal and knitty. I need it to feel like mine. Right now it feels foreign and . . .

To have my current deck installed it is going to cost between $115. to $138. What? I already own it. Anyone know how to do this or know of a good inexpensive installer? I would just keep the tape deck radio but the deck doesn't work and there is a loose wire or something. It sometimes does weird stuff.

Must get rolling if I want to get things done this morning. Besides I feel the hot breath of teenage boys on my neck as they wait for the computer. Wish me luck, good karma or some positive something!
