So it seems that I can exchange the useless car part for another of the same nature, but with different genitals. The one I received was a male with a long dangly wire... the one I require is female with a great big slot. Who knew you could get gender confused car parts...
It looks like it should arrive at the repair centre on Tuesday, so if all works out well, I'll have it back Wednesday. That means I'll have it for two out-of-city work trips at the end of next week. I'll keep my toes crossed in the meantime...
I took the poochie out for a walk just as the sun was setting. On the way back I got a look at the first evening star and as always, I made a wish using the old children's rhyme "Star light, star bright," I've been making lots of wishes on stars lately, but none of them have come true. But that's really the fun of wishing... having hopes and dreams makes us more than simple automatons that endlessly work until death. So I'll keep wishing and hoping and dreaming and who knows but that one day, one of the wishes might just come true.
