That fucking car!

If you can believe it, I am to be paid finally! Oh happy day that will be. I confirmed this with that guy and accounts payable.

On a what-could-happen-next note, the car has taken a turn for the worse…again. Can I stress enough to never buy a VW? Seems to be another transmission issue even though the damn thing was replaced just over a year ago, of course less than 2 months after the warranty expired. I cannot say for sure what is wrong with it since it’s the weekend and hasn’t been taken to a shop yet but it’s lurching…slipping, whatever you want to call it, it sucks and is not safe to drive at this point. I am hoping it’s just the timing belt? It has been 50k since it was replaced last so that’s just my obvious assumption. Meanwhile, we are without a car. We did go look at newer cars yesterday and today. I am hoping the Jetta is fairly cheap to fix then we’ll just keep it as a 2nd car but if it’s the transmission again, we’re scrapping it (doing whatever you do with cars that don’t run).
