AMAZING!

where you ever knew about or found that boy band shit is unbelievable. i watched the whole thing. and considered doing it again. !!! i wish my car shopping was as entertaining. instead, it was all about dealers trying to take advantage. i went to law school right? i should be rational right? but they just push you so hard- at both places i went to, they kept trying to get me to sign things, and i was like, no no no, i am not signing anything until i finish my research. i bet they hate people like me.

so there i was worrying about money, financing, blue book values, what consumer reports would say, reliability, warranties.... and 2 families walk into the showroom, go right over to the most expensive 2008 models, used, still over 30k, and independently decide to buy them (for, im scared to say, their teenage sons, who were also there, wearing ill fitting wifebeaters- think, long island, but in miami). sure, i shouldnt be judgmental, but it reminded me of my super sweet 16 on MTV. (and, please note, i tried to get a link like you patty, but unfortch they just have videos of actual people's sweet 16s, which seemed both weird and creepy to be on the internet).

the best part of the day? i had an amazing lunch especial of grilled beef, beans & rice, plaintains, fried pork bits, and a fried egg. now that made me happy. (thankfully, it also sufficed for dinner).

i would go more into the car thing but it has totally drained me. i am still super impressed with your reaching out and running with others, maybe i will do the same once i can stop stressing about vehicles and transportation.

now back to work, you!
