For those of you who weren't aware, Long John is my car.
He is a 1997 Mazda 626, not that you actually care.
He is kind of my life, due to the fact that without him, I would have to share my mom's van with her to go about doing my business. Which, let us be honest here, would SUCK BOTTOM!
He is named Long John after the one-legged pirate Long John Silver from the book Treasure Island. Silver had a fake wooden leg to make up for his missing appendage, but he still:
Could not go very fast.
Could not do hills very well.
Could not travel for long periods of time.
My dear car Long John has all of those qualities, hence the name.
Anyway, about a week ago, he was acting sicker than usual. When he would stop, he sort of had a LOT of trouble getting going again. The check engine light came on, so we took him in to be fixed.
3 days and $850 later... he runs so much better. I don't even have to speed that much to make it up hills now. Made me rather happy. Until on monday the check engine light came on again. -_- Yippee.
So the past few days I have been both stressing and avoiding taking him in.
This is a good thing because the check engine light went off this afternoon. Just thought you all should know. For... some reason.
Love Always,
Holly

Some days....
Some days life is good. This is one of those days, I think.
So, today was actually just MEH, really, until about third period. We got the white boards again in latin today, so here is a NEW BEAUTIFUL PICTURE:
yup. It happened.
Also, during lunch I wanted a candy bar so me and MANdy went to the vending machine. Sticking out of said vending machine were two dollars, and a note that said:
"Random Act of Kindness. Have a candy bar. HAPPY FRIDAY!"
It made me SUPER HAPPY! Honestly, it sort of confused me at first. I was just like, "Oh... look. Money..." And MANdy was all "BUY ME SOME CANDY!" So I said "OK."
Moving on. In last period today, me and my teacher had a good discussion about men. I like her a lot.
THE END. I am done for now.
