NEWLOVE

Every other day, the body shop where my car is being “repaired” calls me telling me my car is ready and I take off a couple hours of work and drive over there in my rental car to pick up my Chloe.  I usually drive the Chloe a few miles before she breaks down again and I have to return her to the shop and get another rental.  Each time, I’m at the shop for close to two hours and then I have to go through the 30-45 minutes of car rental red tape at the Enterprise after standing in line forever.  This is becoming a full-time job (as if I needed another one of those!)    

Chloe is still not fixed and every time I pick her up, I’m shelling out hundreds of dollars.  It’s starting to get ridiculous.  My bank account looks like it has a leak!    

Last weekend, Jannone got us All Access VIP backstage passes to Coachella.  We could have hung out in the dressing rooms practically!  One of my all-time favorite bands, Depeche Mode, was headlining Saturday night.  But did I get to go?  NO!     

Why?  This car bullshit.  I spent 15 hours on Saturday back and forth between the body shop, my mechanic and various Enterprise Rental Car locations.  I won’t bore you with the details but by the time I had a working car, it was after 10pm (when Depeche Mode went on stage) and I was still in LA (and Coachella is 2-3 hours away depending on traffic.)    

I can’t wait till this is all over.  To top it all off, I’m totally PMSing and you all better be glad that I am not a gun owner.  Sheesh.
