Stubborn

Man, this cold is stubborn. It's finally moved into the congestion stage, though it's not too bad, thankfully. I thought it would be gone by now. So much for me never getting sick - this is the second time in a year that I've gotten sick. I guess that makes up for the several years in which I didn't even get the sniffles. I still choose to believe, however, that this is an oddity and that I have a super immune system. ;)

Today I am having the Acura detailed. I paid a bit more to have it done here at the house, so the 4-6 hours it will take won't be too bad. Next week, a guy is coming to suck out the door dings. Then I think we're going to sell her and get me a new car. It won't be a new-new car, but a new-used car ... I'm done with new-new cars for me ... it was cool to get a new car, but the thrill was less than expected and not worth the sticker price drop the moment I drove it off the lot. That said, the only thing we know for sure is that this car will be a station wagon so that we can eventually get D out of the SUV and into whatever car he wants and I'll be the primary driver of the dog car. What I'd really like to do is get a sedan and then have an older third vehicle for driving the dogs and hauling things, however, that is not worth the extra costs of insurance and a not really needed third car.

I had wanted to see Because I Said So with Diane Keaton, but there is not a critics grade posted on Yahoo!Movies yet and it's never a good sign when a movie is not pre-screened for critics. I had even told D I'd go so Pan's Labyrinth with him if he'd see Because I Said So with me. Stupid. Now I have to go because I said I would even though we're not going to see this one. Argh. Pan's is supposed to be great, but that is has fairy tale stuff going on scares me. I rarely enjoy that type of stuff.
