My boss better not interrupt me while I&#8217;m attending to the important business of typing on my website.<\/p>\n<p \/>Last night I took my vehicle back to the place it was worked on last weekend, so they could install the $2 valve I bought from Saab. I still have no clue what it does, except that it&#8217;s part of the vacuum system and when you don&#8217;t have it, your gas mileage drops substantially. Gas prices being what they are, it was important that I replace it.<\/p>\n<p \/>It only took 20 minutes to do that and fix the hoses, but I still expected to pay for it. My mother, eternal cynic, said, &#8220;Well, they <i>should<\/i> do it for free, considering how much you paid last weekend!&#8221; But I disagree. It&#8217;s their time, and I&#8217;d expect to pay for it. I love a company that knows how to earn customer loyalty.<\/p>\n<p \/>I keep having these weird coincidences. I won&#8217;t try to explain them all, because you&#8217;ll just think I&#8217;m crazy. -er. But it&#8217;s like Emily telling me last night, after not seeing her for over a month, that she had just noticed she was using my business card as a bookmark in the novel she brought to work that day. I dunno. Stuff like that is cute, if nothing else. I love it.<\/p>\n<p \/>Tonight I am taking my dad and seester to a Gopher hockey game. I guess they&#8217;re in the playoffs now. I go because the only thing that makes my dad happier than his daughters attending hockey with him is getting to fly an airplane. So tonight I&#8217;ll go and do my usual, which is to cheer the zamboni, eat a pretzel, and await my favorite hockey no-no: TOO MANY MEN ON THE ICE.<\/p>\n<p \/>I have managed to injure yet another tendon in my foot. Thankfully, my foot injuries seem to switch sides fairly often; now that the right achilles tendon and metatarsalitis seem healed, I have a sharp pain from my left ankle and down the side of my foot. I have a cool limp when I walk, but it&#8217;s been fine at on the elliptical machine. My kickboxing became more like boxing, however. I can&#8217;t kick with an injured foot, nor can I twist on it when I kick with the other. You may be thinking the lesson from this is that I should stop doing the things that cause the injuries, but I&#8217;m just thinking I could have a degree in podiatry by now.<\/p>\n<p \/>Tomorrow begins the detox diet! I have a shiatsu massage at 10am. I am so psyched for that. I&#8217;ve only started to realize the value of that stuff in the past couple years; I grew up with my parents&#8217; reasoning: why would you pay so much money for something so temporary and intangible? But now I know it&#8217;s more like: what&#8217;s a clear mind and healthy body worth? Hell, I should be going every week.<\/p>\n<p \/>Time for weekend! Bye.<br \/>Jenni<\/p>\n<p \/>P.S. I told Scotty I&#8217;m going to try to post photos regularly on <a href='http:\/\/www.agirlabouttown.com' target='xoxoxo'>girl about town<\/a>. I will do my best! If someone knows of a script to accept and post attachments from email in php, you should let me know so I can send them directly from my phone. Work and freelancing have beaten all thoughts of further web-things from my brain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Man.
