Well, preventive maintanance being what it is, as in expensive but cheaper than the repair bill, I'm out another $800 or so on the car. Its not bad, but continues to extend how long it'll take to finally pay off the credit cards once I do have a new job.

Hunt hasn't been going great, as for some reason none of the "big" companies who advertise in the 'post have bothered to call. One of the difficulties I think, besides not having a clearance yet, is that they probably think that with 10 years experience, I should have some leadership on my resume...trouble is, ISX was always a bit top-heavy to start with, so the opportunaties simply weren't there, compounded with the reduction in available work that was already leading to the layoffs...

*sigh*

At any rate, at 120000 miles, the CRV is already being cheaper in repairs than its civic predecesor was at that mileage, where I was shelling out $1000 or so every 5 months, so I'm not complaining on that at all...

120000 miles? That's it? I'm up to 240,000 on a toyota 4x4. Less that $1000 a year is still damned cheaper than $400 a month for a new one.
