We went to the Toyota dealership this morning. 2009 Priuses do not have adjustable (up/down) seats, but 2010 ones do. But the only 2010 they had has a moon roof, which loses you a couple of inches of head room. (Remember, mr. flea is 6'6" - head room is almost the most important thing we consider when buying a car.) The Camry hybrid is also lacking in the headroom. The Matrix (not available in hybrid) has a ton of headroom.
So, when they get a 2010 in without a moon roof, we'll go check it out. But probably not buy one for a year or two. The Matrix was nice, and we could get a used one very reasonably, but we really want a hybrid.
The dealer guy's daughter just graduated and is going to UGA in the fall and he was so proud. I was very happy for him (& her).
Rainy Saturdays make for much family togetherness. A little too much, honestly.
This is brilliant, and will be my last post about the weather until it is nice again: [link]
I just watched the final ep of Pushing Daisies. Love! That was a hell of a supporting cast. The
flyover shot of all the various featured locations
was beautiful and the ending narration brought a little tear to my eye. I'm really going to miss that show. I hope the comics get into the story of
Ned's dad
. That story seemed to be building and then disappeared with the cancellation news.
Ditto again!
My sistah.
Hey, Kat, did you ever read
The Thirteenth Tale
? I'm halfway through, and it's delicious.
Nope. But I've heard about it? The author and the bookseller, right? Is it in paper or hardback?
I just bought The Strain, which I'm taking with me on our trip to Ohio.
I read it! Good times. Kat, I think I have a paperback ARC if you want me to send it to you.
Jesse, of the Thirteenth Tale (in which case YES!)? Or of The Strain? (in which no thanks because I have the book already).
Nap time!
It's an author and the young woman she chooses as her biographer. Wasn't it fun, Jesse? So gothy and spooky and twisted.
It's out in paperback -- that's what I have.
