May 10

Today. Woke up with a bad case of shin splints! They get me every time I haven't hiked in a while. It sucks. This morning's events included seeing Dawn and devising a new workout plan once i'm healed that includes pilates and ballet and limits the spinning big time, cause I want my bulky legs gone. Left Brentwood and headed straight for Los Feliz to take Black Beauty in for servicing. I get there and the cute old man (who loves me) is like "do you have someone coming to pick you up?" and i told him i had planned on waiting. He told me that his tranny guy wouldn't even be able to look at it until the end of the day and if it was a big problem, she would have to be in the shop for like three days. I was aghast! So then he's like "come with me" and we go talk to the tranny guy and he puts my car up on the lift right then and i point out the leak and he tells me the whole thing needs to be replaced. (I felt really cool going behind the scenes by the way). So I agree to bring her back on Friday. Being car-less for the weekend is gonna SUCK! I told Leigh and she's like "what are you gonna do? You can't not have a car?" It's so funny and so terrible how cars are such a necessity in LA. And its times like these when it's really hard not having my family here! Cause i'm gonna feel so bad asking Leigh to pick me up once I drop off my car and then bring me back there once it's ready. She's all I have!

So after Ford I went over to Leigh's and Christina came over and we had a little tea party. It was sooooooooo wonderful to see Christina because I actually hadn't seen her since Canadian thanksgiving! She's such a vibrant and entertaining and beautiful person and is just so fun to be around. And she definitely has the coolest accent in the world.

After the tea party I came home, made plans with Jordan to go to Dave's so he could help me with my homework, plans which we later moved to tomorrow since he ended up having to go to a meeting.

Black Beauty needs a new tranny! I have shin splints!
