A Descent into Dullness

So my car's radiator is now spitting out rusty orange water when I come to a stop. First it was dry and seized up. Boo! So cooling was allowed then water was added. And off I went again, stopping at work to get my check (everything fine with the engine), then the bank to deposit the check (all good) and finally to Checker to get some antifreeze/coolant (where the gushing and the hissing and Godsdammit happen)...

So how expensive will this breakage be:

1. Mildly expensive?

2. Fairly expensive?

3. Horribly expensive?

4. I hope you enjoy riding the bus again?

Edit: It is VERY likely just a hose and not the radiator itself. Will know more tomorrow...

No New Comics Day today. 'Cause my cars in the shop getting worked on to pass emissions testing. Which means no ride and that I don't know what I can afford to spend on comics till I get the repair bill. Which given that its a small place in Sunnyslope shouldn't be too high...

Damned tire went flat on me this morning. Not the one I reinflated Wednesday, but the one opposite it. So I try to get across the damn street to Circle K to reinflate this one and it shreds.

So twenty minutes waiting around in 35 degree weather for AAA. Plus now I can go to Discount Tire Friday and blow some paycheck money on new rear tires. Even though my mom has said she wanted to get me new tires for Christmas.

Maybe I can convince her to get me a DvD player or new tv instead...

You know if I didn't hate traveling by public bus with a passion normally reserved for the FOX executive board I'd think about not driving...Cars just keep costing money...

Well duh, you think...And I know...Its just annoying having to rebudget for an oil change and probably a tune up...I mean I LIKE wasting money on comics and gaming and shit...But then I also like not walking around like a big sweaty pile of melted goo...
