We decided to get a car for our anniversary present so we found a car online that we loved and went to look at it this morning.... We called, to make sure that it hadn't sold. Usually I'd just go, but since the car was at a dealership West OF Fort Worth (notice that it was west of fort worth, not west fort worth) I just thought I'd make sure that it was still available before we drove all the way out there to pick it up. Well....We're, I'm serious, no exaggeration, 4 miles from the dealership and we get the ill-fated call...It sold. Yep. What luck! (we also had a few others to look at but they sold too...) I guess used Camry's are a hot market right now! So, we'll keep looking but I can't tell you how excited I am to:
1. roll down the driver's side window again
2. see number 1, and add "go through the drive thru"
3. not be embarrassed that our car is always smoking burnt oil because of the massive oil leak
3a. not having a huge, and I mean HUGE oil spot on our driveway. (when we get a new car the first thing I'm going to do is go buy the oil cleaner stuff for driveways and get rid of it!)
4. not worry about if the car will shift from neutral and actually go when I want it to. (this just started happening within the last week)
5. not have to open the trunk from the inside of the car every time. (when we bought the car they didn't have the key for the trunk that someone had changed the lock on, and we don't have the fancy key chain button that let's you pop the trunk)
I'm sure that I could come up with more...
So wish us luck that when we actually find a car, it's not sold right out from underneath us...

oh erin, what a bummer. i'm sorry. your true car is out there calling your name. be patient and and hang in there. oh and cat litter soaks up oil too-for a temporary fix, just put it where you drip and it will soak it up/or cardboard works too!
