3 more days...

So that check up I had done on my car? Turns out I had suspension problems and my front wheels could've fallen off if I'd have driven it to Texas. Total repair cost: $500. Yikes.

Good news: I found a bank that has branches in both Austin and here in Bridgman. This makes my life so much easier, because now when I come back here over Xmas and stuff, I won't have to worry about ATM fees, plus if I end up in a financial pickle (god I hope that doesn't happen), my parents won't have to do a wire transfer.

Bad news: I need new car insurance b/c the one I'm on now doesn't have coverage in Texas. Bah.

Tomorrow: party! Sunday I have a friend coming over who isn't able to make it Saturday. Monday: Pack things into my car and leave!

OMG what am I getting myself into?

What company is your insurance through? I know a few companies are really crappy and should be avoided.

Currently Farm Bureau. What should I avoid?

A couple of my friends had a poor experience with State Farm, but they were on the side of being hit, instead of doing the hitting. I don't know if it is better on the other side or not.
