A couple days ago, Mark & I got rear-ended on Crenshaw Blvd. We were on our way to go look at the BMW (in Hawthorne) that Mark's planning to get, and while we were on Crenshaw, we got stuck in traffic because there was an accident up ahead that was blocking the entire intersection. So there we were, waiting, until this Cadillac CTS rear ended Mark's car. Yeah. Poor Accord. It's been through hell and back. And to think, 2 days before THAT, someone had scratched that car when Mark when to Concorde for a meeting; I guess the person doesn't know how to park. That new paint job just went to waste. Mark was trying to sell his car THIS WEEK too. We went to a dealership to see what they could do if maybe Mark wanted to go through them to sell the car. Since Mark's car is a salvage, its vehicle history doesn't pass the requirements. But I swear to you, his car is so freakin' clean. The inside of his car is cleaner than mine (smells better too). Mine smells like peaches and dogs lol. But anyways, the guy was such as ass about it. Telling Mark, "Yeah, this car had a lot of frame damage. Honestly dude, I would onl
y give you $300 for this car." WTF? Oh hell no. Tryin' to hustle him. Lame. Mark's car has been everywhere and back, and it drives totally fine. He's gotten it completely fixed. And I'm thinkin' this car could at LEAST sell for 3 grand. Idk. But 300 my butt.
We went to the valley to see the white BMW 330ci. It looks soooo much more cleaner and better than the black one we looked at in Hawthorne. The one in Hawthorne had too many cosmetic damages. It's like wtf did the previous owners do to that car? And it's MORE expensive than the white one? Idk. The white one was so nice and pretty. But unfortunately, the dealer said someone had put a $2,000 deposit on that car the day before. The guy was like, "Yeah, when someone puts $2,000 down for a deposit, I'm sure they're serious." Mark was like, "Oh, well I was gonna put $9,000 down." And that guy's face was like O_O. I'm sure he regrets it, but he had told us that he's expecting 2 of the same car tomorrow (a black one and a silver one). Hopefully they keep their word because Mark has his hopes up about getting the car tomorrow. (: Exciting. I asked him if he would teach me how to drive stick in his new car. He said NO. :(
I changed my mind about the dress I picked for my cousin's wedding. I didn't like the way it looked on me so I'm returning it. Cholo helped me pick one out at Charlotte Russe. There was also a purple dress that looked cute, but I thought the zebra tube dress felt perfectly fine. They didn't have a smaller size, but it doesn't matter since I'm only wearing this dress for one night. Maybe I should keep the tag on and return it afterwards. Haha. I'm wearing a cardigan over it anyways! Eh, idk. I've been asking Mark to take me to the mall almost everyday. I'm sure he's so sick of it now. He hates going to the mall. But I love shopping. I also got new DG sunglasses (my fetish) and a new Tokidoki carnival purse (bags, my other fetish). I'm planning on getting an Iphone soon. My sister said she'll contribute since she still owes me a birthday present lol. She's only almost 5 months late, but that's how she is. Usually she'd owe me on Christmas, lol. But yeah, my Blackberry's been driving me nuts lately. I hate that damn hourglass of death.
Some people that call my work trip me out. This one lady kept yelling at me because she was pissed about the price changes on day care. She goes, "I ALWAYS pay $15 every time I pick my dog up from over there," and I'm like, "Well, how long do you leave her here for?" She goes, "I barely leave her there for 3 hours!" And I'm like, "Well, if it's less than 5 hours a day, it's $5 per hour." She's like, "I ONLY LEAVE HER THERE FOR 3 HOURS!" And I'm like, "Well maam, it's $5 an hour anyway..so $15 is correct..for half a day, which is 5 hours, it's $20. For a full day it's $25." But she kept yelling at me, demanding to talk to my boss. Then again, she IS like, 90 years old. But she couldn't understand a single thing that came out of my mouth. She got frustrated and hung up on me. Funny lady.
One thing that bothers me everyday is the BIG, DARK scar on my neck from my eczema. It's so embarrassing. A lady walked in today while I was receptionist, and she goes, "OOooh, I see that thing on your neck. IS THAT A HICKEY?! BAD GIRL!" How EMBARRASSING is that? To have your clients think you have a hickey on your neck? She's probably 1 out of 20 people who probably noticed it; she's just the only one who had the guts to ask me about it. I wish I had the time to straighten my hair all the time so I could let my hair down to cover it. Putting make up on it only make it more obvious. It's sad. I really wish there was a cure for my stupid skin issue. Every dermatologist that I've seen are failures to me! It's all over my arms, hands, neck. It really turns your bad days into worse days. Eczema is NOT fun to have. It seems like it's just a skin issue, but it becomes really an emotional issue too.
I miss my dogs a lot. It's hard. I wish it was easier for me to go visit them. Work gets in the way, but what else can I do? San Diego is exactly in a week. I am so excited. Since we're getting the
"Buy one, get the 2nd visit free" tickets, I'm gonna get the dolphin interaction ticket for the 2nd time we go. I've always wanted to do that. It's gonna be fun (: Oh yeah, I wanted to post a pic of this bracelet because I LOVE IT. Too bad it costs over $2,000 (WTF, right?). So cute though, so cute. This is such a random paragraph, but yeah, this week I am dieting my ass off. Just because this wedding's coming up and we've gone out to eat a couple times already because of certain functions (I didn't eat like huge portions though, I'm too paranoid about gaining more weight), but for some reason, I feel gross. So yeah. Exercise, soup, salad, and fruits. Oh yeah. :D
Well good day everyone, I'm done. Peace!
