Weekend Update

· · 🌡️ 50°F

After having driven a rental 2+ weeks after getting my car totalled in an accident, I now have another car, a Subaru Forester. I wanted something that handled well in snow and had AWD (like a SUV), had lots of space to put stuff in case I ever had to move (like a SUV), that wouldn't guzzle gas (unlike a SUV), and had thoughtful and intellgent design in its interior and lots of compartments to put stuff (unlike just about everyone else). This actually narrowed down my choices quite a bit. After I drove home from the dealership saturday, I christened the vehicle with the Bedouin Soundclash CD I've wanted to get for months (after hearing them over and over again on Canadian radio).

Me and the GF haven't spoken for 2 weeks after the falling out. I guess that the statute of limitations on my being in a relationship has passed. Strangely enough, you can only have enough cycles of break-up/get back together before you start to feel less and less sad and more and more like "jeez, this is really stupid".

I had a good time with @vincent and his friends last night. It was the first time that I had ever been to Mohawk place, and I should say that it now is tied with Diablo in my "funnest bar" rankings. Lotta cool music, lotta cute and slightly offbeat girls. Nice place. While I didn't think that the "stupider room" was that terrible, I'd agree that the music wasn't that hot (it was a jukebox) and question the value of musical democracy in a watering hole.

And finally, I've gotten most of my passover shopping done. I have at least enough bread of afflication for 4-6 days worth of affliction.

    Hang in there man. I'm sure it feels very odd to be single again, but I think it's better than being on again off again, not knowing what's going to happen - who loves to be in that situation? Nobody (well, masochists, but basically nobody). You seem to be handling it extremely well, so good for you Carolinian.

    Hey Subraru Forester, good choice. @chicoschica has one and really likes it a lot. Good luck with it... as the old folks say, "Enjoy it in good health."

    You should post some pictures of the new car:).

    I'm sorry to hear about you and the girl, but I'm glad you are handling it well. Hopefully it will all work out in a way that you want it to.
