Good Day and thanks for stopping by. I got my tires installed today. Cost wasn’t as high as the estimate and turns out they found damage. The camber arm needs to be replaced. This is what caused the tires to wear abnormally quick. I think this is left over damage from my accident that just surfaced. Either way it matters not because it’s covered 100% under warranty. That’s the good news. The bad news is that the parts aren’t in stock. I will need to come back next week or shortly there after. They will have my baby all day long and will provide a complimentary loaner car. Should be a 1 day deal. Then after that I should be free from having to visit the dealer for a while. I got $275 credit coming from Michelin so the tires were around $400 total. Not bad all things considered. I have a smoother ride even though the alignment is probably off. Once that is fixed I hope the tire issue is resolved and I don’t have any further issues. Rubber is expensive!
Saw the doc and he told me about a new study that was just published in the New England Journal of Medicine about a drug Invokana that is used to treat Type II Diabetes. It’s a remarkable study and it sounds like it will give me longer to live. The bad news is not a lot of insurance company’s are covering it, despite the study. I priced it and it’s $1,500 for 90 days supply or if I want to go retail it’s close to $600 per month. The manufacturer offers assistance with the cost but there is no way I can front that kind of cash and wait to get reimbursed. The doc isn’t interested in changing things right now but long term it’s probably where we are headed. He gave me some eye drops to try for my chronic conjunctivitis they are less expensive than what the eye doctor prescribed. I hope they work because they are more than affordable. I got my blood drawn and hope that the results will be good. I should know something by Monday for sure.
In other news, no contact with my brother. I suspect it will be radio silence for quite sometime. However, I did some creeping on FB and found that they are engaged or so the bimbo’s status reflects. That doesn’t mean they are getting married anytime fast. If it’s true I do think that she will be on her very best behavior so she doesn’t loose her meal ticket. Once they are married and she gets her name on the house, well that’s when I predict things will go south. Maybe not right away but sometime after both of those events take place I think that is when things will fall apart. That will cost him dearly because divorce attorneys aren’t cheap and in the end when you divide up property she will come out ahead because today she has nothing but when you get into community property she has everything to gain and nothing to loose. Sadly I think that divorce will be the only thing that will open his eyes fully wide. If they can make things work and both of them are happy well that’s great. However, my brother said it best in that history repeats it’s self. So regardless of marriage I think this whole thing will eventually fizzle out. I am still beside myself on how fucking dumb he is but hormones over blood any day, because a stiff dick has no conscience.
Had dinner at Steak N Shake it was pretty good. I’ll probably do some traveling tomorrow for food as well as knock out a couple chore stops [Sam's, target, etc.] as well. Having extra time is nice but sadly it will all be over with way too soon. I am kind of looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow if that actually happens as well as getting my haircut. I want to look nice when the boss shows up next week. I don’t look bad now but still nothing like a haircut to make you feel good. The haircut store was booked solid today or so the app said. Thankfully I have tomorrow. Now I have to rustle up the trash and get it out to the curb, a fun chore. Then I can relax with the beggars for the rest of the evening.
Happy almost weekend! Talk with you again soon.
