Car shopping sucked majorly.
The first place had the most irritating salesman, my gosh. He would not shut up. He droned on and on constantly repeating himself. The only car in our price range he had was a minivan. I don’t want or need a minivan.
Second place had a stupid entrance, I almost got hit test driving a car. Which really did wonders for my post-accident anxiety. There was a car there I liked, but it was leaking coolant, so we passed. The other car there was literally falling apart.
Third place had an Explorer with the tiniest gas pedal ever, and no air conditioning. There was also an Impala, that I can only say was weird. It was weird.
Forth place had the nicest salesman. I tried out a Focus, but it was bad. At this point I was so hot I don’t even really know why we left that one.
Fifth place was hilarious. The first car had bald tires and the driver door didn’t open. Second car was great, but it was 4 grand over our budget. Third car was okay, kinda iffy, but again, a thousand dollars over our budget. It was not worth that much. Dad offered them more for it than I would have. They chased us out of the dealership trying to make a deal.
I’m starting to think I should have gone with the minivan.
There was a street called Ye Olde Post way, with the street sign on an old telephone pole and a Slaughter Elementary school.
I cannot believe I woke up so early on a Saturday after actually gone to work the day before. Utter nonsense.
Anyway, car shopping today! Haven’t driven since the accident. Going to do a lot of driving today. Not sure if I’m ready for that, but my readiness for any situation rarely seems to matter. It generally happens anyway.
Crush, man, secret.suicide, leave, kiss.
oh
Maniac. Leave. Suicide… Makes sense, actually.
secrets,leave,lust ahah
suicide,passion,coke
fool, suicide , secrets
Secret.Dream.Maniac.
Rage, maniac, curse
Yea…..
crush, on, maniac.
I don’t have a crush on anyone though.
I have to go back to work today.
Do not want.
I won’t have a car to retreat to for lunch, or my music to settle my mind. Also, it’s just going to be weird trying to work with a sort of useless arm, when I do a bunch of lifting and putting and scanning type things.
Somehow I’m supposed to be getting three packages today from all that ordering last week. I don’t know why they’re all coming today, I ordered them on different days.
Even though I don’t really want to drive, I hope dad finds me a car this weekend. I miss my freedom.
