tue: update... busy!

ok so i'm sorry i really haven't been on that much. just got so much goin on. i should be more supportive to my friends here but i don't have that much time to get on the comp anymore. but here's the latest news... me and my friend Steve (also mechanical) have decided to take the engine apart our selves and fix it. i don't trust mechanics and i'm sorry i ever did!! i hate that we will have to put our bodies thru the pain of working on this car. i love cars and so does he but it's gonna hurt!! i wish i could sue the shop for all this shit!!but i gotta get the car up and running so i gotta do this even tho i hate goin thru it. also... my bro and i have decided to buy the house and i already started the paper work on it. so mom, my bro, and i gotta start "de-junking" the house so we can pack up slowly for the move in. it will take about till the end of Sept to close the deal on the sale. so we may be moving the 1st week of Oct. I'm so not looking forward to this moving process at all. and it's all because my stupid car needs major work thanks to the retarded mechanics!!!! they are throwing a major wrench into my plans!!!my body will be going thru hell for the next 2 months! on the brighter side... (forgive me for not smiling right now)the new house (if we get it) has the exact same lay out as this house and it's on the same road (which will make the move more easy), but it's 10 times better! it's got tiled floors (yay!), ceiling fans, new appliences, and it's way out towards the valley and is surrounded by trees, grass fields, mountains, and from my bedroom window is the view of the ocean! whoohoo! it's much quieter than this house, and cooler. the bad side about the house is that it's a town house so it's attached and you get asigned parking. i hate asigned parking! but what can i do, right? i'm not rich and it's REALLY hard to get lenders to loan right now because of the motgage crisis. besides, of all the houses i've seen, this one is the best looking, in best shape, best price, and has the most features i'm looking for in a home.  do you think i'm right for buying it? or should i keep looking? what is your opinions? what do you think i should do 1st, start working on the car or de-junking the house? how should i go about all this madness?
