Halcyon Repose

I have decided that I really need to take the time to make some adjustments to the look of this site. I like how clean it is overall, but some things, like the color scheme and the graphics, need a slightly more masculine feel to them. I also need to update the back end of the website, not that it will be visible to anyone but myself. These are both lofty goals, and will both sit on my plate for many more weeks to come I am sure.

I am still waiting on my car. I got the call at the end of last week that it was 1-3 weeks away, and of course the closer it gets, the harder it becomes to wait. I went in yesterday to start the approval process for a car loan at my credit union, and I found out that my credit isn’t bad, but I don’t have a lot of it. In fact I was told that my credit rating was on the borderline on what they accept. This started me thinking, and I realized that not only did I have to have a co-signer for all of my previous cars (except my current one, but it was used and $8K is more like a small loan than a car lease), but that this car was going to be twice as expensive as any that I owned before. Thankfully I got myself all worked up over nothing, because I not only got approved for my requested amount, but a little extra… Just in case.

So I know I have the money for the car. I have already purchased a new suspension for the car (the one thing the Mustang’s are weak in), and a short shift kit to decrease the throw in the gear shift. It all comes down to how much longer I can hold out. I wonder if anyone offers a short-term cryogenic freezing process….
