Cleaning & Packing Day 4

I didn't get as much done today as I would have liked to. I managed to get the entertainment center cleaned off for the most part, everything except the stuff we use on a regular basis. I also packed another box of Mike's toys, and got all his winter clothes put away. Washed, folded and packed away more laundry. Other then that I didn't really get that much on the house done.

I am slightly agitated, this guy has called me about the escort three times now. The first time, two days ago he called and asked about it, then told me he'd call me back. Yesterday he called in the morning saying he wanted to come look at it, but needed to run to Lansing, and he'd call me back around 3:30 - 4:00, when he got home. He didn't call back until 7:00. Today he called again at about 8:00am, said he was running to Monroe and would like to look at it when he made it back, again around 3:30 - 4:00. He didn't call back until 7:30, I didn't get the message until 9:00. When I called him back he was still up for looking at it. He said he was about half and hour away, he would meet me there about 9:30 - 9:45. Cam and I ran out there, we got there about 9:45, he was nowhere in sight.

We jumped the escort to get it to start, I sprayed the inside with air freshener. The we waited. About 10:00 I decided to make sure it would move, so we disconnect the cables we had left connect to charge the battery, and I tried to move it. Now keep in mind I haven't driven a car in 6 months and I haven't driven a stick in over a year. Needless to say, I stalled it. We had to hook the cables back up, but it started. I took off and drove it around the yard once, then we let it idle. About 10:30 I decided to give the guy a call, his phone dumped me directly to voicemail.

As it had been running for half an hour I decided to shut the car off, again we waited. At 10:45 I tried calling again. Still just voice mail, this time I left a message telling him I was going to wait until 11:00 then take off. By 11:00 I was already pissed off, Cam and I packed up and he drove up to the house so he could say good bye to his Grandma. We took our time driving home, in case he called back.

We got home about 11:30. I'm not really that annoyed that he didn't show up, I wasn't really expecting him too, but a phone call would have been nice. I wasted almost 2 hours on him. It was the time I was going to use to pack some more. Now I'm not only still stuck with the escort, I'm screwed out of a day of packing.

Bastard!

On the up side, while we where there, Cam's uncle came out with a business card. He said the guy it belonged to wanted the escort, and had cash in hand. Said as long as it started it was good. I'm going to give him a call.

I'm tired, I'm sore, and I'm a little more then annoyed.
