There was some fairly last minute power work to be done and then there was arcing and a breaker flipped and trunk couldn't handle the load and now all sorts are services and servers are down or misbehaving and today just got even dumber.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Puppies!!!!!
I don't know what those words in that order might mean, excatly, sarameg, but sympathies.
I love my 2012 Focus that I bought new. It handles amazingly well and it's much quieter and has much better interior quality than other small cars in its class-
My son bought a 2012 Focus last year and it is quite zippy. My rental this week was a newer Focus, also a stick, but it was the hatch back version. I liked driving it, but I'm not a fan of Ford's dashboard/instrumentation/controls layout.
I'm reading all the car talk with interest. I'm not ready to trade in the Mustang quite yet. It is a 2002 and has been a good car even though we have to be very careful in the snow. It needs new tie rods and I have a feeling we will be hitting the nickel and dime stage sooner rather than later. I'm trying to hold off another year so I can have a better down payment. I haven't had a car payment in over 8 years, so I want it to be as minimal as possible.
Puppy cam! Yay!
Boyfriend and I actually just got confirmation that we are registered as a Foster Family for Miami-Dade Animal Services, so hopefully I will have some puppies and kitties in my life soon. I'm really looking forward to getting involved and helping some animals.
I'll need to buy a car soon as well - my "let's pretend I'm a millionaire" dream car is a Mini Cooper, but a Fiat is probably more my price range.
~ma and hugs to everyone having a bad day.
I'm trying to avoid a car payment, but if I pay off my credit cards, those payments should cover a car payment.
I'm always surprised that we don't have more Smart cars here in SF, and then I see one trying to go up one of the steeper hills, and I remember.
There are two Smart cars in my building's parking garage, and *both* have a motorcycle parked behind them. I'm convinced they just bought teeny tiny cars so they could fit their bike in the same parking space.
That's pretty sensible.
