It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Our wings are not tired.
Well done, Tom! Your cheating is most impressive.
I took DH with me to buy a car when we were first dating because of the female issue. No doubt I won his heart that day when I ripped the salesman up one side and down the other when he tried to change the deal we had already agreed to. He just stood aside eyes wide watching me. And then followed me as I walked out. Now that I think about it I pretty much have taken the lead on all the vehicles I have purchased over the last couple decades. For me, he has done his own thing on his.
I hate shopping or haggling. If I tell you I am willing to buy at this price it is not an opening salvo.

I just don't want to deal at all.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I'm hoping to get a few more years out of the car(It's 13 years old) since I don't relish the idea of car shopping. Previous time I ended up with a deal that probably wasn't the best, but I was under time restriction.(My old car had been totalled, and the insurance company only covered the rental for a specific amount of time.) At least I won't be doing it alone this time.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's a french fry place in my nearest mall, and I was prepared to worship at their feet, but they serve stuff in sizes called Jumbo, Mega, and Giga. And the "can I increase your order to a Mega for just a dollar more???" standard sales tack is just irritating. They're not the only place that sells fries in the mall (by a long shot) but they do have the best real estate. I think I will fry elsewhere.
Fast food hard sells? For a dollar? Seriously, no. "Anything else with that?" or "something to drink?" doesn't bother me, but for some reason upsizing does.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Crisis! I was going to get a pedicure today, but the nail tech is sick. And the other place I have a Groupon for is booked solid today. Do I get a full-price pedicure somewhere else? Or just keep wearing the closed-toe shoes until I can get in the original place (Wednesday). It's supposed to be hot tomorrow! (I cannot deal with my own toenails.)

Lee, I think on the 13th we should definitely have time to see people.

Punishingly Intricate
I got my current car at carmax. It was pretty hassle free.
