Panic and Geekiness

[przed]

We leave for England in three days, and there is laundry to do, a new car to pick up (I bought a new car! As in, no one else has ever owned it! Dear god, I must be middle-aged.) not to mention vid footage to capture. I'm gradually realizing I was insane for not starting this vid way earlier when I had an abundance of time, but then I always work best with a metaphoric gun to my head. But did I have to start a four-fandom vid this close to MediaWest? And did one of those fandoms have to be one in which I know only the bare minimum of episodes. (The four fandoms are UNCLE, Pros, S&H and Due South, for the curious.)

Okay, enough whining. From probodie, the How Geeky Am I meme:

Something wrong with buying a new car?
Me, I do it all the time (sometimes, even twice a year) :)

Have a safe trip :)

Nah, it's very exciting. But it's the first time I haven't bought used. I'm both enjoying the experience and freaking out because, wow, cars are expensive.

cars are expensive.

I bought my first car in '74 (it was new, too).
At the time, I paid $3,000 for a stick shift, 6cyl. Gremlin (as St-Crispin said, it was all engine and gas tank)...
The last one (got it tonight)? You could almost add a zero at the end :(

But I love the smell of a new car...
