Vandalism!

My car is dirrrty! Yes I put some extra "r's" in there. That's how dirty my car is. I don't think it's been washed since October maybe September. I've been trying to get my car washed since 1/1/2009. But something always happens to prevent it from getting done i.e. weather, laziness, forgetfulness. This week I had to take my car to the dealership to get my rear tire replaced. When I made the appointment online, I made sure to note that I want my car washed. When I called to confirm my appointment, I made sure to tell them that I wanted my car washed. When I bought my car back in 2007, I bought the VIP Service Package. That meant I had free oil change and filter change, discount on parts and labor, free inspections, tire rotations, and car washes and a plethora of other stuff that I can't remember. I haven't taken advantage of any of the VIP amenities that I have paid for. So when I dropped off my car I made sure to tell the fella at the service desk that I needed my rear tire, driver's side, replaced (I drove over a nail and was slowly losing air. Of course the nail was on the side of the tire and they couldn't plug the hole. Thus having to get a brand new tire.) And I told him that I wanted to have my car wash. I dropped my car off at 7am so they were going to have my car all day. It might as well get cleaned while in their care.


I call the dealership around 3:30 that afternoon to find out if my car was ready. Of course it wasn't. It was next in line to get looked at. Seriously? I asked what time will my car be ready. They say 4pm. Ok. I'll be there around 4:30 to pick up my vehicle. I arrive at the dealership. My car isn't quite ready. Of course it's not. So I wait for another 10 - 12 minutes. They finally call my name. As I'm walking up to the service desk I'm thinking: They had better washed my car. And guess what? THEY DIDN'T!!! My car was still filthy dirty. I was not happy. I didn't make a stink about it because at that point I just wanted to pay and leave.


I go pick Darrius up at school and when I walk back to my car, this is what I see:


What kind of bird poop is this? It looks like mud. There's grass all in it. Completely gross. For some reason, this just added insult to injury. My car is already a dirty mess and then a bird goes and drops a grassy bomb on my hood! I guess I should be happy that I hadn't gotten my car washed. I would have really been pissed!
