A Chance To Read

Months ago my truck's speed control mechanism was recalled and disconneced. I kept getting letters the parts would take a little longer than expected. They had millions to replace nationwide. Then I forgot about it. I finally was thinking about the speed control while I was standing near the phone -- goodness knows why -- and I called so now I have an appointment tomorrow early. The entire family is still in Vegas! Yet considering the line at the place each morning, I figure it's a fluke they can get me in tomorrow. Trucks doctors are like dentists, when they've got an opening, better jump on it or it could be another month. I guess I'll bring a book to read while I wait. I'm under the impression it'll take 2 minutes to pop the part in, but never know how long it will take them to get to my truck. It would be a $40 cab ride all the way out here, and I'm much to cheap for that! Anyway, so reading it'll be. If I had an eReader, I could bring my whole library with me.

  1. I'm getting more and more impatient to get an eReader...but I'm scared to spend the money, cause I'm afraid I'll hate it once I get it. Lol...guess it's still the 'old-fashioned' paperback for a while.

  2. I really do wish I could try it out. Having bought my new computer, I would probably have preferred another. No choice with computer though!
