stop and stare, you think you're moving but you're going nowhere

so the weather up here has been subpar for the last few days. with rain, and an overall cooler temperature, i find it hard to believe that within the last it was also eighty degrees outside.

along the lines of strange events, a couple of coworkers have inquired about what it is i do at work. not in an insulting manner, but because they are interested in taking the position when i leave. while still others insist encouraging me to stay. which is not going to happen several reasons. most of which revolve around the fact they were being such unreasonable dicks regarding my transfer. i think if i ever tranfer again, it will be out of state. most likely to someplace warm, like mexico or puerto rico.

i also have recently been approved for a car loan. i was browsing their cars, and the only vehicle i was even interested in were their used smart cars. the downside, even though i was "approved" for an amount that would completely cover the cost of the vehicle, the car is still more than twice what i want to pay for a car. now if the had some compact kias or toyotas i would be all over the opportunity. even though the fortwo is compact in size and fuel efficient. it is not so great that is blows away the competition. essentially, it is not one of those things that are expensive upfront, but you save money on daily use. so i will probably pass on the whole deal. i may still call to inquire if their inventory includes any of the vehicles i am interested in purchasing.
