another day, another... bit of debt? somehow that doesn't sound as nice as the real news which is my new car shows up this week.
I was very particular this time around. I've been driving a car I barely fit into (my hair brushes the ceiling when I drive) for the last 7 years now. I was possibly too particular. I actually felt the need to order it from the factory in August. It seemed like such a good idea a month and a half ago. And now, finally, it's nearing home.
So I decided to get the "newly redesigned 2012 Ford Focus". Yellow. I drive about 35 miles each way for work and almost 40 MPG sounded really good. The Twin Cites are a couple of driving towns. At least if you don't live actually and work in one of the downtowns. Traveling, even from suburb to suburb, can be brutal. But now: less gas, less waste and more comfort.
(and of course more debt...shit. ah well, consumerism here I come!)
Photos will follow once it gets here.
