I Hate Being Right

Remember how I mentioned my belief that something would come up to eat away at my little nest egg of discretionary income?
I dropped my car off at the dealership for my inspection and service, and a bit ago they called to let me know that in order to pass the state inspection I will need two new tires. In fact, in one instance I need an entirely new wheel, as the current one is apparently bent (not sure how that happened).
I don't have the costs yet, but I'm sure it's not going to be cheap.
So either I had a premonition or I jinxed myself.
On a totally unrelated front, Wired has an interesting article about the Internet here.
It's kind of funny to look back on how wrong people were about how the Internet would evolve and what kind of role it would have in our daily lives.
In any case, I just thought I should mention that I'm really annoyed that I was right about the whole money thing. I'm sure I'll be back later with more.
