I strongly recommend CarMax. They were a dream compared to the normal used car buying experience.
Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of people....

Nissan Versa!
When I was doing Zipcar, the Versa was my favorite car to take out in my neighborhood. Really fabulous little car.

Jeez, people are making me hate them today. I pulled a couple of articles for a professor's RA on Friday. She just interrupted my lunch (opening my closed door and saying, "Hi, So-n-so said you might be in here!") to tell me I pulled the wrong article because the author's name was wrong -- and she points to a similar name printed on the last page of the article.
I just had to explain to a law student that she was looking at a footnote.

Nissan Versa!
We just bought one in August- it's a really nice car, I lurves it. We liked the Honda Fit as well; they were more or less the same price, we liked them both equally, but we got super low financing on the Versa, case closed!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I sat in a Fit a few days ago and really liked it.
But if you're looking for used, it's hard to go wrong with Honda or Toyota, I think.

Our wings are not tired
I've been considering buying a new (well, new used, probably) car. My parents want me to anyway, and I wouldn't mind having something better. Any suggestions?
Um, I have a 2006 Ford Escape Hyrbid for sale.

I had the Versa as a rental car recently and really liked it.

Hee. I'm not looking for an SUV. Or to pay much more than $10,000, which is what is in my head as the optimal price of a car. Like $10 is the optimal price of a CD.

I hurt. All over. And I'm really sick of being sick, and am generally whiny, and do not want to go to work today. Actually, just DO NOT WANT in general.
Being sick sucks. Woe.
In less whiny news, the Foreign Service Institute was shut down for some hours on Friday - a construction crew found some unexploded ordinance. Turns out it's Civil War-era munitions (I don't know what exactly).
Cool! Well, not cool for the possible danger and all that, but cool.
