I bought a new car! Yessiree, as of Saturday I am now the proud new owner of a '96 Ford Contour GL. It's beautiful, my baby is, pure white - you know how some white vehicles look like there was hardly enough paint to cover it? well she's got a generous coating of thick, smooth, white paint on her. Really, for a '96 this car is in very nice condition. No cd player, unfortunately, but I'm getting one installed. Oh I feel so utterly cool in my new ride. The car sales man took a liking to me, which I must confess I used to my advantage, and he brought the price down down down and gave me a great deal. Ah, life is so sweet.
