Zoysia, Hil?
I sure did think that said "assassin" for a moment, and was pretty impressed that you have a neighborhood assassin....

If the Assassins Guild says no clotheslines, I'm not going to argue.

Subarus answer all your needs, and last forever with proper maintenance. Go Team Subaru.

Also, my favorite recent story of grazing a cow on the Common: [link]
That's what I'm talking about.
Not literally that story is what I had in mind, but that sort of thing.

I have a new car! My email just popped up with the notice that the car insurance has been changed to include the Jeep!
I hope Hubby left the Taurus on there, just in case something weird happens on the way home, where it will be parked until we send it to its final destination.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
After that I'm stuck. Not sure how to narrow it down further.
May I suggest perusing my DH's reviews? [link]

Thanks Scrappy and noted Theo. I have others recommending Subarus, too.
My Mustang is a 2002 and doesn't have many bells or whistles. Now I want something fancy but not crazy. Probably a 4 door sedan that fits adults in the back seat.
Also waffling a bunch on whether I want an automatic or manual. I miss driving a standard and I want to be able to teach my kids how to drive a standard.
Of course, I'm looking at doing this much later this year. Trying to get something paid off first to make room for the new car payment.

We just paid cash for a '96 Jeep Cherokee, owned for the last 13 years by someone who drove it less than average. Allegedly a Jeep fan who supposedly took good care of it, though it has lots of leaks. It drive very nicely, it's got a 10-CD changer in it, and the body and interior are in good shape for a vehicle that old.
Too bad I can't do a funeral pyre for the Taurus, in recognition of the sturdy old tank it's been. We've wondered what piece of battle equipment it was in a previous life.
In re: Hubby's car, our "son" is having it looked at by a very good friend of his while Hubby's in the hospital this week, Said friend is also a member of the SCA, as Hubby and I and "son" are, so networking pays off again.
The universe likes to see me squirm, I guess.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Congrats Connie!
Yesterday our dance group had a gig(in Darlington, MD, which is way the fuck north) where we had two sets(one was 25 minutes, the other 50 minutes). This morning I had a doctor's appointment which made me get to work late enough that I had to park in the garage a few blocks away, and ended up on the top floor, so stairs.
Tonight we have dance practice. I get the feeling I'm not going to be dancing much.(Did I mention that it has suddenly become summer, and we practice outside? More fun)
