irresponsibility

I have a poll. Look! Over there --> a poll. I feel so cool.

So I've always been responsible. I think maybe since birth. I've always done what one is "supposed to do." Despite the fact that I'm younger than my brother, I am the more responsible one. It does not feel like being responsible is getting me anywhere.

I'm single. I have no children. I have access to a truck. I don't particularly love my reasonably new vehicle. Here's what I've been pondering trading up for:

Pontiac Solstice:


Saturn Sky:


Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder:


None are practical. Not at all. But how cute are they?! Seriously, how cute? Vote in that little poll over there. You can only pick one. For those of you who don't like to comment on a regular basis here's your opportunity to just click anonymously.

I think the poll may become a permanent fixture. Maybe a different one on a weekly basis or something.

You want the hottest sports car of 2007? Check out www.teslamotors.com. MPG blows away all three of the other options, though you need to have $100K lying around to buy this roadster...

I'll have to go with the Mitsubishi because I don't thing Pontiacs typically get very high crash test ratings and, as an owner of a Saturn vehicle, I don't think I'd buy another one - especially not until it has been out for a few years.

Nice, poll; heehee. i voted but will also voice my opinion since i have eyed the spyder for a while myself...Can you guess which one i would choose if I did not have to worry about the lil' one??? What about the Honda 2 seater? That would have been my other possibility if I could 1) afford a new car and 2) could haul groceries, a kid, myself, and all the other 'to keep kid occupied during the trip' items in it.

I voted for the Spider, but after looking at all of them, I like them all. Go with the best package.

I've driven a spider before, though, and they are incredible.

hey, would you like to see the nursery?

After a very productive week/weekend, the nursery is just about done. I think the only thing I want to do is whip up a simple padded headboard and Hubby needs to trim down the legs on a little footstool. That's it! Finally! So without further ado... This is what you see when you walk in the door. Too bad the baby won't be able to appreciate it right away. (And I'll apologize right off the bat for having some wonky-colored photographs in this post. I just don't have the energy to fix things. At least on my monitor, the above pic is roughly true-to-life.) Would you like to see that awesome rug a little better? Man, I love it. It was the one splurge for the room but it has such great colors, fun animals and designs, and is round. All my criteria were met. Love. Here's the corner with the crib. I wanted a clean, simple, modern, white crib. I hate to admit it but we ordered it from Wal-Mart. Hey, at least we didn't have to enter an actual store to get it. It was ine...
