window repair

and so one place quoted the window at $253, then the second place quoted it at $80.
I will have to wait until monday. However, it should take under an hour, and since the repair shop is in Pilsen, Suzy and I should be able to go to the fabulously delicious Mexican restaurant afterwards for lunch.

note to self: for my sociological assessment of this issue, look into the economy that has emerged around window repair after someone breaks into your car. i am bitter.

And as I'm tying to work...
there's a car right outside my window with a clear alarm problem. seriously, the alarm has been going off for two hours. beep, beep, beep, beep. Every couple of minutes, someone turns it off...and then 30 seconds later, it starts again.
On a day when i discover the violation of my own car, it really sucks to encounter this "symbol." this may mean i have to go to the library, even though I wanted to be homely today. there is no quiet to be secured here.
oh my god, it just started again...please kill me.
