You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

So, I have a 50-lb Australian Shepherd mix.

My favorite kind of dog, so no point needed, really.

Up with the sun

Hee! Are you going to name your car, Lyra?

Yeah, it's called Ruby (red car, what can I say?). It's a '99, but it's only had one owner and it seems like s/he took good care of it. This is the first time I've ever had a car that was mainly mine -- I only learned to drive for real about a year ago, and we managed with one car until I started this job. Plus, because it's a little older, we managed to save a couple thousand.

It sounds like your Saturn is very spiffy. I love purple cars.

EDIT: This conversation compelled me to go out to the parking lot and look at my car. It is, in fact, a Honda Civic EX, not a DX. It is still shiny and red.

Hey, maybe that was my point. I can pretend.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's true, I have a guy from New Zealand in my drawer. He's very wee.

Dear msbelle and others who can always use more cowbell: You can get Marlon Brando's cowbells for like $100. Word. I might have to make a trip to Christie's to check out the Brando stuff.

Is that a euphemism that I'm not getting?

Yeah, but you've got it down in an unfairly endearing way.

Being all pointy-headed 'come see the logical fallacy inherent in the system!' is endearing? I did not know that.

Man, I wish! No. Wait. The other thing.

No, it's actual cowbells for sale. Formerly owned by Brando.

When i got home from work yesterday, he'd gotten himself stuck under the bed again. I don't know why. And last night when we went to bed, he tried to crawl under the bed again, but could only get halfway.

Hm. Are those bed lift things stable?

Ooo! Your car is all fancy and stuff. (ETA: Lyra's)

Proud owner of a '96 Civic DX HB myself. Electric blue - her name's Illyria.

I'm going to miss driving a Honda, but the modification subculture is so strong around here that you can't get used ones for anything close to reasonable. Which is why we'll probably be able to get a decent amount for our well-loved '98 DX, but also why we had to move to a different automaker.

I took the cow sticker that had been in the Badtzmobile for at least five years off of the dash last night as we left the dealership. Then, on the drive home, we allowed ourselves to get sentimental about old Badtz. (Honeymoon road trip in the car, took baby home from the hospital in the car, blah blah blah in the car.)

If it had four doors, we'd have just sprung the grand to have AC installed. It will be missed.
