Break It Down Again..

No more sleepy dreaming! Or driving around in the slow lane without A/C! With temps consistently in the 90sF (they're not joking when they call it "Hotlanta"), I finally broke down and bought a new car. I think the drive to the Braves game finally sealed the deal...rush hour traffic, 6 lanes of traffic, the Volvo the only one with the windows down, breathing in exhaust fumes for an hour, sweating it out. No California-sea breeze to cool us down. That being said, I love the heat. I love that it is 80 for a low at night. It's really nothing to contend with actually, esp. since central air is everywhere in Atlanta, along with pools.

Anyway, I almost punched the dealer when he offered $500 for the old Volvo. It wasn't traded in, and will continue to roam the streets (the very near streets) of Atlanta. Sad to say, but the city is a completely different ride when you have new wheels. Let the horsin' around begin..
