Wierd weekend. FInished work at midnight last nigt: simple rule, the most expensive and expendable person gets voted off the island, so I had a decent nights sleep, but still I woke up cranky and tired. Aching joints and lack of energy. ugh. I managed to wash the BMW and take some pictures so I can list it online, but then it decided that the ABS, traction and stability controls were faulty, so I wasnt so happy about driving it. Not that any of my other cars ever had computerised toys, I just wasnt keen on driving something with 400hp worth $50k without some kind of handling nanny.

I even piked on a rather lovely birthday soiree invitation: a small number of hairy spunky lads invited to bring in someone's 40th decade with a bang, but I jsut wasnt in the mood. I havent really been since Brian left, which is a bit odd and not a little nauseating to my friends, but there you go. Instead I mpoed about at home before deciding that a soak in Paul and David's hot tub would do the trick- and it did. That and the numerous glasses of fine NZ sauvignon blanc.

Tomorrow: Deliver Paul's Golf to the service centre, then off to see Kung Fu Panda followed by the new Incredible Hulk. And then to write reviews. Could be interesting.

Awww, poor Mr. Mopey. Wish I could help. Get your ass over here!

My MINI would up and decide that ABS/DSC/whatnot were all broken every now and then. And then it'd just go away. I think maybe one of the ABS sensor wires was loose or something. Never managed to get it to the dealer before it got better.

this one isnt better yet... but then again it's just the handling and ABS nannies, so I'm not too concerned. It still works like a car, it's just annoying having all the little dashboard lights illuminated.

You could definitely help with what's ailing me right now. *sigh*
