The blue car has been officially smogged-I don't think it's "fixed", but it should be enough, fingers cr0ossed.  All is nice & quiet.  Today I have a conference at Eric's school.  Tomorrow I'll register the car-and that will be it.  Holding on tight to the few pesos I got.  If no money comes by the time the next bill is due-It'll be 6 weeks, and that will be the longest drought ever.  I still need to apply for medi-cal-praying for peace.
