All Talk
I'm always writing about how I'm going to do something new with this site, and I never do. I think the real solution would be to put a computer in my room, so it'd be easier to use. That, and I'd like to add another couple hours to the day. That would probably help the most. Rest assured I still have some time for video games, and that's what you want me to be doing anyways. You made me this way.
I got a Canon Coolpix 775 digital camera. It's a little slow, but nice.
Car Hunt
I went to a dealership on Thursday to look at some cars, and I test-drove a Jetta and a Civic. Both of those were nice enough, but their price didn't go down much even though they were a year old or so. Since I'm going to be making payments on the car to pay for a loan from the credit union, the price seems like less of an issue. It's still an issue, believe me on that one, I'm still Joel Shaughnessy, but it's less staggering to look at a $20k car than I thought it would be, especially since all my previous cars have been about $3000. I haven't actually paid anything yet, and I'm sure that once the bank gives me $15000 or whatever I'll get, it'll be tough to hand that over to the dealer.
The word "Dealer" isn't one that you associate with nice, trustworthy, people.
Expunging
I threw up last night at Adam and Jen's house. I knew it was coming once we got back to their place from Kevin's house. I paced around, I drank plenty of water, but in the end I had to rid my body of the foul, foul, cheap rum. I was very tidy about it though, and for that I commend myself. I took off my long sleeve shirt, I didn't get any on the floor, and I even inhaled water through my nose afterwards to get out any chunks which might have gone astray. It had been a couple years since I'd thrown up, (Not since my first month in DC I think), so I guess I was due. There was no sniveling, I was in complete control of my entire body minus my stomach, I was calm, cool, collected, and rapidly shooting Onion Masala Dosa out of my mouth and nose. I just want to congratulate myself on a job well done. Good job, Joel. Puke it up. Alright. Excellent.
