So, this morning…at 6…Colette wanted to watch the kids yoga tape that we have. I thought, sure, why not. I could use a good stretch. We we start watching and it’s pretty clear that I’m the only one doing the excersises. *sigh* They were a good stretch for me. Really showed me how out of shape I am. I did most of the. I passed on the ones where they picked themselves on their hands in a squating position.
Colette got bored, but it sure felt good. 🙂
so, we got the second car. We are now officially suburban livers. ugh. 17 years of liberal urban life did not prepare me for this.
uhg.
Though, I gotta say I’m a bit jealous of Kim. She gets to drive the v70 and damn it’s a nice ride.
*sigh*
Well, we finally did it. We got the second car. We made our weekly pilgramige (sp?) up to the volvo dealership in N. Scottsdale and low and behold, there was a v70 (station wagon) under 20k.
So we got a 2002, v70, white, with booster seats, third row seats, and a sun roof. Bought it. Done. No longer have to look for car. Can be a good consumer now in consumer heaven…
I got a taste of the Dead tonight. There was a movie about the dead from the 70’s on PBS for their pledge drive.
Anyway, upgraded winamp, installed the shn plugin so that I can download some groovy lossless files 🙂
I’ll be rockin tomorrow.
I tried getting LimeWire to work, but none of the files I picked seemed to work via the p2p method.
Oh well.
I’ll just do it the ol fashion way.
There is nothing better than a friend. Friendships make you a rich person.
An old college roommate/friend called me to touch base. He was actually the best man at my wedding. For some reason we kind of drifted apart. Long distance, new families, kids, etc…
Recently an old highschool friend of his died at 38. Heavy drug user. This prompted him to call his old friends and touch base.
Funny thing is that I’ve had two friends die on me in the last few years. Both my age…way too young to die. Both due to drugs or alcohol.
Feh. People shouldn’t die before 50…really…come on now.
It was nice to hear from Kurt. Hopefully we’ll be able to keep up the contact and re-establish the old dialogues.
*sigh*
oi.
We are truly suburban now.
We moved from SF to Tempe, AZ. You have to have a car for each adult in the family…if you have kids. Fuck. That’s all I got to say about it.
So today we are going to go out and buy a car. It’s July 31 and there are incredible “deals” today if you buy a 2005 model. The dealers want them off the lot to make room for the new models.
We are buying *cough* a mini *cough* van *throw up*. I’ve never seen myself as a minivan owner. But with kids and dogs, they are truly unavoidable. ugh.
*sigh*
Buying a car today.
So we decided upon Julian Dale Porter-Kaplan.
Unfortunately, because we waited three weeks, we have to get a birth certificate the hard way, as well as SSN. The hospital won’t help us and the state is pretty hard to deal with 🙁
Ah well. I miss Kaiser. They were amazingly well managed.
