Good & bad news

[tarotgal]

Good news: I am now the proud owner of a brand new Honda Element. Not the color I wanted, and no cassette player, and I don't know how I'm going to pay for it yet (I have a temporary absurdly high loan from Honda and will call credit unions on Monday to get loan at 6% at the worst). It doesn't feel real quite yet still. I've been wanting an Element for soooo many years-- ever since they came out. And I've never bought a car form a dealership before. So it was a HELL of a lot more exhausting emotionally than I thought it would be. Who woulda thought you could get so drained just sitting and talking and trying not to get strongarmed into spending too much money? I cried when I traded in my car (for all of $100 trade-in value LMAO). Still not real to me yet.

Bad news: I'm not done with Lady K's giftfic. I'm so sorry, Lady Korana!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's started and I have it mostly worked out in my head (all but the very ending). I'll have it done soon!
