on a more serious note...

My car is... not great. Last night I went out to check the oil, and, since I felt like it, I used a flashlight, and looked inside the oil thing. It was dry.

So I put 4 quarts of oil in.

Yes. 4.

Tonight, when I got out of the PC, I backed up and looked at the spot where my car had been. Y'know, there was probably 2 quarts on the ground. I opened the thing, added 4 more.

Driving home, however, wasn't great. The car's running roughly, and I belched white smoke the entire way.

Burning plastic, a bit of burning metal. Some of it was probably the oil.

Now I hope dad'll be home soon, since he can help determine what to do. Then I can sleep.

On a happier note, I got a double paycheck from the temp place, and my normal one from the PC. And I now have 11 hours of Farscape. ;)

Thanks, Drake, it made my day. :)

First half of Season 4. *g* And, no, I haven't seen any seasons before, except a few episodes. I'm prepared to be all mind-screwy and confused.

But it'll be a good confusion. ;)

I was the same, I'd seen three or four episodes in the past but sat down and watched the first few episodes of season 4 and was *way* impressed. Impressed enough that when the place I buy DVDs from had the first two seasons at almost half-price I bought the whole lot! :)

And oh are you in for some treats...hehehe...
