Hello hello! You know what film I watched before the Oscars Sunday night? The Fugitive. I watched the whole darn thing, very exciting, with the one-armed man and all.

I was on the bus last night, a window was open and it really hit me that it was chilly out. Then I remembered that it was warm yesterday morning. I thought to myself, how the heck do you dress for this weather? With that in mind, I'd like to start a new segment today, I call it: Bob of BobBorden.com Has Bad Ideas Too. So, with the weather so CRAZY, I thought It'd be pretty funny if I dressed in two extremes for today's wacky diary photo. Like, shorts with a winter coat, hat and gloves. I loved the idea SO MUCH that I even wrote it on my hand so I wouldn't forget:
An idea is
born

Then when I got home I said to myself, wow, that's a pretty lame idea and started writing today's diary. That was Bob of BobBorden.com Has Bad Ideas Too -- Tell Your Friends.

I got an e-mail yesterday that said my radiator may get here on or before March 8th. I could have swore that when I ordered it, the site said it'd be here by Wednesday. Maybe that was for my original order to Ohio, who knows? There's always something! It has to get here before Friday. WAIT, I just checked the tracking number and it will be here by the 3rd -- WHEW! That's a load off.

When I drove into the city Sunday night and double parked in front of my building I noticed that my car left me a surprise. Here's the anti-freeze stain:
My car's fluid

Dramatic photo? You better believe it. Now everyone knows that it's not all in my mind. When I get it fixed, I'm going to do myself a favor a drive it off a cliff. The sentimentality of it being my Dad's car is starting to wear off with each unexpected bill. Now, I can't get rid of it because I've got so much in it. It's your classic catch 22. But damn if I don't like driving that sum bitch around. Can you say 'sum bitch' on the internet? Oh well, no one will read it at the bottom of the page anyway.

I'm really getting serious about buying an apartment. I just need to find that magical combination of price, location and parking.That's the dream. Jersey City isn't 100% out of the running but it's pretty close, ha ha. Too urban for Bobby. I think I just need to know the cool, underpriced areas. Too bad Hoboken is off its nut as far as prices go.

That's all she wrote!

Forever Bob,

Bob
