5. Buy a new car (new to me, in any event)

"New to me, in any event"? Fuck that.

No, let me rephrase that. Fuck that.

That's better.



It was perilously difficult to drive back from Portland, at nighttime, in this car, and keep my speeding to the definition of "excessive", versus "ridiculous" or "insane". This car is quick.



Some details here.

Did I mention it was quick?

Addendum: For the record, this vehicle would not be mine, without the help of my good friend Gavin, who sells vehicles for Town & Country Dodge in Portland. On the off chance anybody reads this and they're seriously thinking about buying a vehicle, there's no one who's going to go further out of his way to help, and who you can be sure isn't going to screw you over for a quick buck (he's pretty much the antithesis of the "car salesman" stereotype). Drop me a line and I'll forward you his contact info. Thanks again, Gav!
