What did I do to anger the car gods?
First, a young idiot hit my parked convertible. She owned up to it, found me in the store, and we took care of the details. Now her insurance company claims they'll cut me a check, but if my repairs exceed their estimate I should take it up with my insurance. BS, I'll be talking to my guy monday to sort that out.
2nd, we were going to take the SPG into the city for a night out when I noticed a flat tire. A friend drove and I took care of the tire in the morning. 2 punctures in the sidewall... Looks like it was stabbed in somehow. $97 later, I have a new Yoko Avid on it.
3rd. Looked at the hood at what looked like a bird dropping, and noticed some more goo around it. After some attemped cleanup I see what looks like a clear liquid nails/silicone gunk dried rock hard. It's probably from a construction site or prankster, but the car hasn't been near a construction site. I tired to chip some off, but it's a bear. And I have to pack to move tomorrow.
Let's hope my new home brings me better Car-ma.
