Point blank

Do you guys know about the bag tax? I went to Safeway and they made me pay 10 cents for a brown bag. I was so confused at first, but the lady told me that it was supposed to be happening throughout California though now I'm not too sure because when I went to Safeway and Target here they still handed out plastic bags as usual. I'm kind of happy. I was prepared to carry my ghetto strawberry to go grocery shopping. My ghetto strawberry is a hot pink reusable bag that collapses into a strawberry. I'll take a picture of it one of these days. The point is... it's embarrassing.

My car stopped yesterday. I really wanted to cry. I would have freaked out more if I wasn't at my apartment and if M wasn't there with me. The lady from triple A probably thought I was retarded because for some reason I had trouble formulating my words. Our conversation went something like this:

L: "Hi this is triple A how may I help you today?"
J: "...it won't go..."
L: "I'm sorry ma'am you're going to have to be a little more specific"

I finally got my point across when I told her that my car wouldn't start and that I thought it was the battery. Freak my life. I was supposed to save money this month because of all the money I spent last month, but it's only January 4th and I've already spent a small fortune. Anyway, the battery guy came and he told me that my battery had 50% or something like that. He said that it was okay if I left it and that it was up to me. Uh... who would be dumb enough to leave it? Why would you do something like that? And that is definitely not okay. So of course I had him just give me a new battery and thus, I am even more broke than I was initially. Does this happen to people often? I love my car, but at this point I feel like it looks like this. It's never had any problems before... I'm sad.

We ended up watching Bridesmaids yesterday. I didn't think it was going to be funny, but I almost died laughing. Everyone in that movie was a total psycho. :)
