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.
I just had to explain to a law student that she was looking at a footnote.

Hmm, I hear you in terms of thinking that *should* be the case, but seriously, if you're gonna get a car, get one that won't be giving you the same kind of angst you're getting now, and that will probably be at least $12-15K. I think after all was said and done, we paid about $17K for our car, which was more that we wanted to pay ($15K was our max and all we were looking at were compact cars, both new and used) but my gut feeling is that it's worth it to spend that kind of money on a Honda, Nissan, Toyota type of thing. Lord knows I'd never be able to step up to the next level (or want to) but I feel we got good value.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Whoa! Aims!

I cashed out some stock options last year, and I'm expecting a decent bonus this year, so I was thinking of combining those to make a car. But I suppose I could throw all that at them and then pay the rest in installments? I disapprove of paying interest.
I found my other sister.
I'm confused.
