Cars.

So I bought that '96 Accord I blogged about. It is sitting outside right now. I drove it around some today to run errands and just practice with a stick shift. I'm getting better at it, but am sure at this point I don't want to deal with it in the stop-and-go traffic that is the DC Metro area. It really is a great car. In extremely good condition. I'll be sorry to part with it when I give it to my parents, but I know they'll do better with it than I will.
Which is why I agreed to buy a '97 Accord automatic from a guy last night. Was all set to meet him tonight to make a deposit, then give him the rest once it gets wired to me, probably on Thursday. But I got an e-mail from him saying he needs it all in cash now, so I told him to go ahead and sell it back to the dealer.
Seems kinda shady there, doesn't it? Oh well, back to the classifieds, then.
Also, I may be starting a short-term job at Bode Tech, where my uncle works. They're moving offices and need help packing things up. I'm hoping to hear from them tomorrow about when I can start. It won't pay much, I'm sure as it's manual labor but it's something. And a salary is better than no salary. It'll get me out of the house while I look for something else, which will be nice.

More later, once I know something.
