This is the late version of the Friday theme...
My car failed it's warrant on Friday. The guy read me the list of reasons over the phone and said "To be honest, if you get this work done it'll be OK for six months, but you shouldn't try for the next warrant. You should throw the car away. It's falling apart."
Well, that'll put a damper on your mood. The thing with a car is that it becomes a part of you. Once you have one, you don't want to have to live without it, because it becomes the part of you that gets you places quite fast. My car used to belong to my sister. She had it for a good few years and she got it second hand too. I knew it wasn't going to last forever, but I didn't make any good plans for what to do when it died.
I feel like I've lost something, and I hate losing things. On the flip side, we have the possibility of a good car reasonably cheaply. Waiting to hear about that today. Fingers crossed.
The other thing about Pieces of me, is that it's from one of my many favourite Tori songs (Tear in your hand). It has the line "If you need me, me and Neil'll be hanging out with the dream king." referring to Neil Gaiman and the Sandman.
It's also catchy and pretty and I love it.
