Will I ever learn?

One of our car windows was accidentally broken when we moved into our apartment. If you do the math, you'll realize that this was... 20 months ago. If that broken car window was a baby it'd be walking by now. Yes, it's still broken. Not gone, just in a million intact pieces with a layer or two of extremely weathered packing tape over it. Needless to say the car did not pass inspection when it was due for a tag at the end of November. So the plan has been to go car shopping and cleverly avoid paying $150 for a new window. $150 is extremely crazy to me, considering the window broken is that tiny triangular window in the backseat. But apparently that's the hardest window to fix so it's the most expensive. Of course it is. Anyway, sheer lazyness has kept us from looking for a new car over the last month. Now with only days before we go to Oklahoma I'm scrambling to try to find someone who will fix it for only $150. You see, our temporary tag expires December 27, but by that time I'll already be in Oklahoma. I'm sure there's a lesson in here about how I shouldn't put things off. I've had ample lessons like this in the past, but I doubt this one will stick either.
