the rule of 3
so stephanie has this theory, rule of 3 if you will, to which bad things tend to happen in groups of 3.
todays rule of 3 is one of unexpected financial burden.
#1 last friday one of stephs earrings fell out of her head in some undisclosed location. yeah you are correct in your thinking, these were of the diamond persuasion. a birthday present from this past year. one she will remember not only as the first nice jewelry i gave her in our 5 years together, but also as the disappointment of a little jewelry box before we were engaged. i guess receiving a small box round about that time a relationship is scheduled to make the next big step and have it be just earrings is a bit disheartening. that is my feeling, not hers, she never mentioned any disappointment. either way. one of them is gone.
#2 this deals with the hoe of my life. Tahoe. seems the electrical system is having an aneurisms. instance one (again in 3's) was the seat not remembering how my derrière like to be held. the seat recall looses it's mind every now and then. 2nd deals with the seat as well, except this time it is the seat heaters that have gone wacky. hot, hotter, hottest - repeat. only i never even turned them on. burning my ass. 3rd happened earlier this week. apparently left turn means hazards on for the ol hoe. figures the electrical system will freak right after the warranty. and it is the only part of that truck i do not THINK i can fix.
#3 is stephanies ipaq. there is an apparent problem with charging. and by problem i mean when you plug it in to charge is dies. and by dies i mean see you later. done. i bought a battery and installed it. turned on, lost all data, but i was happy the machine was not dead. oh that was until i plugged it in to charge again. dead. tried a few different chargers too.
so that sucks. the only up-side that i can see is that i now have 2 more things i can get her for various occasions. and the hoe, if she does not get her electronics in line, she may be going off an overpass.
rule of 3 blows...

1. i've been picking through chingoo's poo to see if she ate it...no luck yet buddy.
2. unplug the harness for the heater and quit being such a cold-assed pussy
3. pen + paper = problem solved
hehhehehe, i'm just bustin your chops man...all of that sucks. my jetta went haywire after its warranty expired and i have a feeling the volvo will too. i think car manufacturers hook up tiny explosive charges that detonate when 3 years pass or 36000 miles. if you need any help with the tahoe, gimme a ring, if anything i'll drink beer and watch you try your hand at automotive seat-electronics
as far as the ipaq goes, call hp...start bugging the hell out of them about it...how old is it?

unfortunatly the ipaq is 2 years old, and they said it would be $200 + to fix it. soooo not worth that when i bought it.
and i must admit, thinking of you digging through dog poo makes me laugh. i am sure she has not passed it by now, keep digging, i'll let you know when to stop...
