Sometimes I think my life is an actual soap opera.. I was just thinking the other day how it seemed like such a long time since Id felt down and blue.. and poof..
and as I was driving home today I started thinking about when my father was teaching me to drive, and it got me even more melencholy..

I should probably mention this started last night.. when I got up in the middle of the night, to go pee, and when I came out of the bedroom, I looked toward the living room, (opposite of the bathroom) and could have sworn I saw someone sitting in the living room. Mentally I knew it wasn't possible, but it didn't stop me from being freaked.. I turned the light on, and lo and behold, there was no one there. But even after I had gone back to bed I felt uncomfortable, so I left the hall light on... then again driving home.. I could have SWORN i saw someone standing next to a telephone pole.. turned out to just be a flyer posted to it and some other piece of paper that could look like a shoulder if you looked REALLY hard, and had a good imagination.. then there was the life flashing before my eyes bit when I started thinking about learning to drive.

and now.. im home.. and I should be exercising.. but im not.. Im watching charmed.. I don't wanna exercise.. I know I should.. but I don't wanna.. (yup.. im having this mental fight in my head.. )

Im probably going to have some more macaroni and cheese.. cause frankly that made me feel a bit better.

i am sooo tired, and so unmotivated, and all I want to do is go home and go to bed and go to sleep for three days..
Im 90% sure im going to not come into work tomorrow (shhhh don't tell anyone)

hanging out with ben last night was interesting.. he had already gone out and about by the time I got there, and he refused to put his costume back on :( that boy definately has a mind of his own. Mark got the tickets to the circus.. we are going Saturday morning, and then to Monsters Inc on Sunday for a matinee.

you know.. I might have to take monday off too :)

I also watched the great pumpkin last night. You know.. it always bothers me that charlie brown only gets rocks when he's out trick or treating..

going over to the 'rent's house tonight.. mom's making lasanga.. Bev is bringing Ben to go trick or treating in a known neighborhood.. (he's going to be thomas the tank engine) unless it rains.. *crosses fingers the rain holds off*

Ok.. where to begin..

I went into the dealership on friday.. talked to some guy named don.. what a jerk.. he mumbled when he talked, so you could barely understand him, and when he did make himself clear, he was condesending and defensive.. I was dealing with another saleman Mark Zahares. He was much more a people person, and Im glad he ended up taking over the negotiations, along with mr mark galos himself...

Anyway.. on friday I had gone back and decided on the seabring. Its bigger, better, and all around more what I wanted. They wanted to only give me 10k for my car.. even though all of the blue books say I should be getting 12-14k for it.. I was ticked. I went home that night saying I had just put my car in the paper, and wanted to give it the weekend to try to sell my car. No one even called :( Monday I did some research on line, and printed up copies of what I should get for my car. I went home.. and sat around all frustrated cause I didn't really want to go in and tell them they were stealing my trade in.

Every other time Ive gone out to buy a car, Ive gotten what appears to be a great deal, and then I ask for more and they've given it to me. This time they said no a couple of times. grrrr.. in the end they gave me more than they originally wanted, but not what I wanted for my car, but they gave me a 7.59% interest. My montly payment is 50$ less than my old car, and $50 less than what they originally told me Id have to pay for that car.

I brought my dad with me on monday to help with the negotiations.. he said he was proud of me, and told me I hadn't needed him there, but I knew if he wouldn't have been there, I wouldn't have stuck to my guns, and Id probably end up with a payment that was $25. more a month.. (which was one of their offers)

So now I have a nice metalic blue 98 seabring convertable JXi with all the bells and wistles you can imagine.. (although it looks purple at night.. which is an extra bonus) its got 15.5k for milage.. and when reading the manual, I found out the car was bought in florida.. someone probably bought it in florida, then almost immediately moved to maine and parked it..

three problems so far, is a) they didn't switch the clock back.. so its an hour ahead due to daylight savings changing recently (I was so happy that I wouldn't have to do that cause I was buying a new car.. should bring it back and make them do it.. lol
b) the radio doesn't go down to 87.7fm.. I often listen to the tv station that broadcasts through that frequency.. Im bummin
c) there is no flippy thing on the rear view mirror.. there is a button that says automatic though.. Will have to figure what that means.. (man I hate reading car manuals.. they are so see dick run mentality)
