Yes, yes, yes, it HAS to be red

Well, my dears! There is one less thing in this world for Kimmie to bitch about now! Yay new car! Sydney and I are now rolling a Volkswagen Jetta. It's bright red, as I'm sure you all would figure it would have to be for me to drive it, and it's got a turbo engine, which makes it super quick. There's plenty of room in the back seat and in the trunk, and I can't wait to get all my stuff inside to clutter it all up. I can see a bit of a learning curve for me to learn its dimensions: I took a slow and steady approach to my parking spot tonight. I really can't wait to drive it tomorrow!
So, I've got to say, I'm moving really well through my list of "Big Things I Wanted to Accomplish, 2009" so far this year. (New computer? CHECK. New car? CHECK.) Irritations, frustrations and fears were large on my mind every time I would get into the Land Rover, and now, I'm feeling more confident about the new car. But don't get me wrong ... I proudly admit that I cried my eyes out as we drove away from that car.
