I was almost immortal for about three hours

So feelings of near immortality can only last so long.

English (Lit.) class went well. I made it through the whole hour and fifteen minutes without wanting to kill the porfessor.

I was dead tired by the time it was over. I just wanted to drive home and crawl into my nice snuggly bed and sleep forever. But, I knew that if I did that at 2:30 in the afternoon I would wake up at midnight and not be able to go back to sleep and it would just be a vicious cycle of sleepiness.

So I drove down to the Camp Fire office and visited Lindsay's mom for a bit. It was nice talking to someone away from the school for a little bit.

Feelings that I can conquer almost anything are still intact. The last time I tried to find the Camp Fire Office it took me 30 minutes to find a building that is approximately 9 blocks away from my appartment. I was only there a couple times last March. I knew it was right next to the Great Falls High School, but I wasn't quiet sure where that was. Besides, on this side of town.

After I left there I went to the Wal-Mart. I wanted to ask them about the tires that I had put on while I was still in Wyoming. The tires are a size bigger than the size the owners mannual says to use. I wasn't overly worried by this until I got up here and almost everytime I made a right hand turn the right front tire would rub against something and make an awful noise.

I am a little concerned that my tire is going to explode on me while I am driving down the road someday. So, I figure I paid $8 for each tire to have their little tire protection plan, I may as well see if they can do anything to fix it.

After being yelled at by the first guy that comes to talk to me because it isn't safe to have different sized tires on your car. A second guy yells at me and says the same thing.

Would you just listen to me, I am worried for my safety. I understand that you don't want me to put smaller tires on the front until the rear tires can be changed. I have no money right now, but I would like to live long enough to know that I can get this fixed.

The feeling of being able to do anything on my own even though I am a girl has just been crushed. I know that I am a girl, but I grew up around tools and parts and stuff. My dad and two of my uncles are mechanics. If there is something I myself can do to possibly fix this tell me so I can do it. I know how to use tools, I know how to put things together and take them apart if it is a simple task. I just don't know how to tell what exactly is the problem.

My dad had looked at the tire thing when I first noticed it but it has since gotten worse. So the second guy that has belittled me tells me to get my car and he will look at it.

I walk all the way through the store, get in my car drive it through the little maze of garbage cans and find the guy waiting for me outside talking to another employee. (Probably about how stupid I am).

He looks at the tire and tells me that the tire is fine but the little after market mud flap thing is what is starting to show signs of the rubbing. So I was freaking out about a terrible noise that was caused by my tire rubbing on the mud flap.

When I got back to the apartment I tore the stupid thing off. It is in the garbage can now.

My daddy called tonight and told me that someone smashed in one of the windows in the Strawberry Red Mustang 5.0. They were trying to steal the stereo. I am atually surprised that it hasn't happened sooner.

The poor car has had one of the headlights smashed out, the antenna bent in two places and now the window smashed. The car has been sitting behind my dad's shop since my mom started going to school over at CWC. She graduated in 1995. I can't remember if she was taking classes for two or three years before she graduated. (They were mostly night classes, she was still working). So it has probably been sitting for 8 years. I wish someone would have been able to drive it, or that we had a garage at home to keep it in so it would be in good shape still.

Also news to me as of tonight. My mom got a laptop in September for her birthday. I was just told tonight.

I have a headache and I have been awake for way to long. That is probably why I have the headache. haha...

I am going to bed.
