WHAT IN SAM HELL!!!

OK, so I just got over the call from the Ford place. I was told, 1) I need new tires, 2) I need a new battery, 3) I need a completely new stereo. I asked how much that would be all together, and was told $1,100. After I picked my jaw up off the floor I told them not to worry about the radio. Ten minutes later, I called back and said not to worry about the battery. Five minutes later, I called back and said leave the tires alone, I’ll be there at 5 to pick the thing up.

I had a heated discussion about it all with my coworkers somewhere in between all of those calls and they convinced me to shop around. After canceling all of that with the Ford people, I called Mom and told her. She agreed that shopping around was the best policy. I called Dad too, and after a “ /insert pause. Do what!” reply to my original story, I calmed him down with my reaction, and he said that he’d come and get my car on the day he got in and he’d take care of the tires and everything. I talked to G and she said that her son Johnny knows a place that he can order a car stereo for relatively cheap and then he can put it in my car himself at no charge. Over all, this has been a lesson in “Dealerships See you Coming” and “Always consult those older than you who’ve been there!” Because I’m not sure what I would’ve done (other than had to pay my parents back for new tires).

I can’t wait to pick the Puma up and just drive home. I’m so zonked from everything...Thank God, the day really did fly by. I need a xanax.
