I bought a work truck. It is a 99 GMC Sierra extended cab. Got a great deal too, $8500.

Do you still have the Escape?

Oh yeah. This truck is strictly for hauling some of the rental gear that I have that is too big for the Escape. I was just ending up renting trucks too often.

Oh Drew, that rocks. I'm really glad to hear that they're doing the right thing. Was that the only thing wrong, or was there something else, too? I'm also very happy about the finance manager taking care of the loan for you. Yay!!

Aims, yes, for work. He rents a truck a fair amount when doing installations, and Halloween at Universal this year was going to cost several thousand in rental fees. We decided that that several thousand was better spent as a downpayment on a cheap, used pickup truck. You missed our naming discussion last night. 'Twas amusing.

ETA: Oops, xposty.

The fuel guage was the other item and it worked when I started the truck this morning. Go figure. A flakey fuel guage I can live with. No odometer I cannot.

Hopefully, this means a nice tax write off for the business, too, ND, yeah?

The truck is going to have a Diablo Sound logo on it; 'tis all business and so all write-off. I am far too excited about this.

Golden Grahams:

I didn't fall asleep until almost 4AM, so I am filled with teh gronk this morning. I need to be inspired.

Coffee:

Damn. Our kitten rescue application just got rejected because we were honest enough to admit that we might eventually consider letting them outside (for short periods of time and under supervision once they're older).

This was not the inspiration I was looking for.

From the length of the email she sent she clearly has a pretty massive issue with any cat going outside. Ever.
