A great day again

My mom took the Camry into the shop today, so we got a Yaris for a rental car for the day. I felt so small driving that car, almost as if I was handling a toy.

Some minor confusion in the morning when my mom mixed up my optometrist and dentist appointments, but all went well. No increase in degree! :)

I spent the afternoon with Derrick again, this time visiting various car dealers in the area and trying to find the car of his (teenage) dreams. Some of the salespeople we met were really interesting, especially the VW guy who told us in a thick Russian accent, "Fuck the Jetta! Fuck the GLI! GTI is for you." When Derrick put the GTI in S(port) mode, that engine roar and powerful acceleration totally blew us away. Definitely a keeper. ;)

As it turned out, my stalker used my address to send me a letter; it's so nice to read these handwritten thoughts. I'll reply once I remember how to write again.

It's also great to talk on the phone with special friends, especially when boredom has kept you from dialing yourself for months. It was great talking to you again. :)

I just spent about $50 on lens filters. I hope it was worth it.

Tomorrow's a new day! I wonder what I'll get myself into...
