Fuck it, I won't lie, my ride is a joke
God damn it. Really.
Yet again, the engine light in my 1999 Ford Escort has graced me with its dreadful luminance. It's back like a bad habit I can't get rid of and I'm FUCKING SICK of it. Ahem. Sorry.
My best guess is that the source of the sickly light is, once again, the idle solenoid, also known as the IAC valve. I don't know if Ford designs them to fail every few months, if the stars have aligned to produce another random failure in mine, or if somehow an unknown fault in my car causes them to fail, but that fucker had better be covered under warranty. Otherwise I'm going to be very mad.
I've got an appointment with Ford "service" this weekend.
My girlfriend is coming into town this weekend! At least I should have a good time waiting on some idiot mechanic to tell me he doesn't have the part available to replace in my car. Wait, I was trying to be positive. Should be a good weekend.
I did get all of my Xmas shopping done, except for my Girlfriend's Mother (all in one day). What do you get your significant other's mother?
