High Class Lowlife

keeping it classy since 1984

Ramble

I’m not dead, but my car is, or nearly is.

My parents, being the generous folks they are, are buying me a new one.  As in a NEW new one.

The catch is that I don’t get to test drive it.  Crackbaby Pete’s untimely demise has only occurred recently, and they want me to have a car to drive when I get home, so they’re going to test drive cars and make an executive decision.  I’ve narrowed it down to a Prius, an Insight, or a Civic Hybrid.  I’m secretly hoping for an Insight, because it comes in teal, like Ghettomobile, but it’s probably silly to buy cars based on the colors in which they’re available.

Anyway, if anyone knows anything about any of these three cars (good or bad), I’d love to hear opinions.  I do have some input on the decision.

In other purchasing news, I feel very grown up.  Glen and I just made our first joint purchase for our future home.  We bought a comforter for our future bed.  A king-size one for our queen-size bed, because big blankets are always more comfy.

My start of the financial year resolution is to post more.
