The car is going into the shop again today. The battery has died two nights in a row. It's not the battery or the alternator. So it must be that light that stays on too long.

I have an interview next week. I should be excited but the job is making 2/3 of what I was making and even then I was barely making ends meet. So what to do? Mom wants me to hurry up and file for WC claim. I want to do it right and take my time. Being rash and quick I will only screw myself over.... Sign in to see full entry.
