That New Car Smell
Today turned out to be quite an interesting Monday. Steven has been mulling over buying a new car (pre-owned, but new to him) ever since he paid his car off back in July. He'd been looking at the Mercedes CLK430s, but wasn't sure if he wanted to upgrade (he had a C230). The salesman called today and, since it was the end of the month, they were able to reach a good deal using his car as a trade in, so now we've got this gorgeous silver 2002 CLK430. It's a pimped out model with the navigation system, electric every thing, dual climate controls, laser encoded key, integrated phone system; basically, the works. It's too dark to take pictures, so I'll have to get some tomorrow. It's a super sweet car. It's always so exciting to get a new vehicle!

It doesn't compare to a Merc but I am really excited that last night we bought a VW Van that we are going to use to go camping in!

Oh cool! I have a mid-eighties mercedes, but one of these days, like when I get a job, I'd like to upgrade to one of these. Make sure to take a picture of yourself in the mirror!

I still can't believe he didn't have them add on the gold trim. *wink* Just kidding! Steven is wayyyy too classy for the total pimpmobile look!
Take pictures! :)

- I bought some great stuff in Galveston - a cute purple shirt from Moody Gardens, a pretty pair of earrings, a fat peppermint striped cat ornament that is so adorable, a hex sign stained glass thing to hang in my window, and a birthday gift for Jeanna
- I took some really awesome photos in Galveston this weekend
- My ring was found last week and I am still psyched about it
- I got my bracelet back from B! Beads and it fits perfectly. I also got my new earrings and they are beautiful

Good things happen to those who drink Cherry Coke! Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend! :)

I'm totally with you on the ER and Alias thing - although add in Survivor, Amazing Race, and Six Feet Under, and you've got my TV lineup. :)
So did the "unexpected event" in the premiere of ER this fall take your breath away too?? Gotta say I wasn't expecting that...
