"Ack, gack, blargh..." (or "Buckmobile Now Down To 50 Cents")

Man, I wish this day would end.
I'm tired, I've got a headache, my tummy feels unsettled...
And I broke the Buckmobile Wednesday.
It was fine in the morning when I took it to go to work.
But when I drove back home in the evening, it started making fishing boat noises.
("Boat-boat-boat-boat-boat-boat-boat...")
I figured it was the exhaust acting up again, so I dropped it off at the mechanic's
yesterday morning and walked to work. Eventually, the grease monkeys got a chance
to take a look at it and I learned that the problem was inside the engine somewhere.
And it would not be worth the expense to crack open the motor and see what the problem is.
It feels like the engine is firing on only 2 of its 3 pistons (or 3 out of 4).
The mechanic thinks it's a cracked piston or something. Blargh...

So, anybody got a car for sale cheap? I mean, REALLY cheap?
I don't care what it looks like, as long as it runs.

Hmmmm, I just realized I haven't had any Coca Cola today.
Maybe a chilled can of the other black gold will set me right...

Also, blargh.

(One chilled 12oz can of Coca-Cola later...)

Sure enough, I feel better!
I'm more awake, my headache's gone, and my tummy is settled.
And don't you go telling me it's all in mind!!

And it's a good thing I'm more awake too, 'cause this new cellphone version of Q*Bert
(yea, the orange guy is back!) I just tried runs at double-speed! It's Q*Bert Extreme!!
Oh geeze, there's no way in hell a normal person can play at that speed.
Gonna have to tell the developer to dial it down...

Weekend's coming.
If everything goes according to plan, Saturday should be lotsa fun.
It will consist of GM cars, serious chillin', and Shaolin Soccer!

Good night, god bless, and in the immortal words of Q*Bert:
"@!#?@!"
