My Nemesis

Ok, so for the last year and a half, it has been an ongoing battle between me and my 1990 Honda Accord to keep it running. It is getting to the point that it seems like some new ailment is befalling the poor old laborious beast. It started when one scorching hot day two summers ago when the only forward gear the car would drive in was third! Then it was the battery, then the starter (which I have replaced three times now) oh, and the transmission was always leaking fluid (which was finally successfully fixed.) The ignition broke and we had to replace it, so now I have one key for the doors, and another for the ignition. And the key is still stuck in the ignition 4 out of 5 times I turn the car off. The handle on the inside of the drivers door is broken, the seat doesn't move forward, the sport transmission light flashes constantly, the check engine light comes on every time I get off the freeway. And now the latest, yes the battery is dead yet again. I am however becoming a pro at jumping. Frick! This is why we don't get nice things kids.
