...and I am not even talking about celebrity deaths. How come unexpected expenses, bad luck or breakages come in 3's. First our dryer stopped drying clothes and then our relatively new MAC computer blew out some internal power fuse and wouldn't turn on and now my husband's piece of crap, it's really a lemon, Volkswagon Jetta over heated on the freeway at 4:30AM in the morning and he had to get towed to a repair shop. Lucikly in this round of breakages the costs have been kept to a mimimum. We called our home warranty place and they told us they don't cover dryers so that made us freak about having to buy a new washer. Luckily in the end, the broken dryer prompted my husband to sit down and fix the dryer himself. Then last week the hub sat down to our computer and couldn't get the thing to turn on. We freaked as this was only 2 years old and we had no idea how much that would cost to get fixed. Luckily in this case the Genius Bar people told us we had purchased the AppleCare package so that repair was free. Finally, this past week, the hub calls me and tells me his car is over heating and leaking coolant. Now in this case because the car is truly a piece-of-shit-lemon we had to pay for something. But we were planning for the worse thinking we would have to go out car shopping. Luckily as it turns out we only have to spend a few hundred dollars to get it fixed. But believe me we are still probably going to go car shopping. When it rain it poors. Why is that?

Wings and a beer were just the thing to satisfy a busy student's appetite. When we frequented BW3's it was a dive bar but by the time my brother graduated from MSU they swapped locations for a building across the street and turned the name to Buffalo Wild Wings and the restaurant became more like a chain thing. Well, color me shocked the other day when we went to the movies and I saw a Buffalo Wild Wings being built in the AMC Burbank 16 complex. Apparently, after looking on their website they are one of the fastest top 10 chains in the US. So of course I had to introduce the hubby to one of my favorite college treats. I don't think he is so much a fan of chicken wings so we got boneless chicken wings a.k.a. tasty little chicken chunks in two of the flavored sauc...
