Hello world. Sorry for not writing more. Blame Mumford for keeping me distracted.

At the end of last week our car went mental, hissing and spitting and steaming and whatnot. So we took it to the dealership (as it's still under new car warranty, though only just) and they said the radiator hose was bust and would be replaced under warranty, but it would take a week to get the part. So we left the car there and have been driving the ute. Which is okay. But then yesterday we got a call saying that they'd just found the actual reason for the bust hose, and it wasn't a manufacture defect, so instead of being covered by warranty we're up for $950 to get it fixed. This is after they've told us the car was inspected and it was covered, and the day before we're going to have a baby! WTF!? Stupid asses. So today we're going to pick up the car and max out the credit card again (thankfully we'd managed to pay off some of it, so we can actually [sort of] afford this.. short term at least).

And then, yes, I said we're going to have a baby. Tonight at 6pm (if nothing happens beforehand, which ain't likely IMO) we're going in to hospital so can be induced. [She really needs a much nicer icon..] So either tonight or tomorrow we'll have ourselves a little person to play with .. look at and stuff.

I should get some sleep, while I have the chance.

Be well, tutti!
