I'm not dead!
I was planning on waiting to post until I got some pictures of my new car. I was all like "Yay car! Imma take pikshures! I'll even wait for a sunny day so my car looks its nicest, because the pictures on the internet of this color look like shit!"
We haven't had a sunny day in two weeks. There may have been sun at some point during that period, but since I'm working essentially from dawn to dusk nowadays, I haven't seen it. D: Ultimate failure.
First off, thank you to
genuinelie and
skyrat13! We got your cards--they're so cute. ♥
luco_millian, your card is up on our fridge; it's so pretty! And
sherriaisling, thank you so much for the candy OMNOMNOMNOM and the tasty shower gel OMNOMNO--oops. Love you all.
Secondly, last Monday night I went from $0 in debt (no student loans, no car payments, and no credit cards) to $10,000 in debt. Ow. ;_; At least I had nearly $7,000 to slap down as a down payment--Essie retained her value surprisingly well, and Geico actually gave me fair market value for her. I bought a Honda Fit in an odd shade of metallic purple called Blackberry Pearl, which BlackBerry will no doubt make Honda rename in the near future. I love it to pieces. ♥ I was thinking about calling it Robin, but ultimately decided that it was too short and its nose was too small. XD I named her Hanako-chan instead and toned the OP geekery down a notchonly to replace it with Haunted Junction nerdery instead--OHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOD.
Other than that, nothing much happened to me. I saw Avenue Q at the Hippodrome, had a nice Yule, and spent yesterday driving all over Maryland (allllll the way out to Hagerstown in crazy traffic of Christmas buttfuckery) in my shiny new car. For something with an engine only slightly larger than a go-kart's, she does 85mph pretty well. >D
And now, onwards to working on my exchange fics, which I totally didn't leave 'til the last minute. Nope. Nuh-uh. Not at all.
