Hmm

The strangest thing just happened. I was at Target, gearing Jonah up for the pool, and when I came back out to the car (the Forrester), there was a small piece of torn brown paper sack tucked under my windshield wiper blade. On it was written, "I need this car. Will pay top dollar", and had a phone number. I think I might call. I'd feel stupid not at least finding out how much this person considers "top dollar". Not that I'm seriously considering selling the car necessarily. I love that car and it would really take a fabulous offer to make me consider selling it, though I don't think it would take much to convince Chris. But if they'd offer what we still owe and/or more than that, we'd be stupid not to consider it. A smaller car payment would definitely be beneficial.

yeah, that's weird.

although in the wal-mart parking lot in south huntsville some guy asked me about selling the crx. he was sitting in an eclipse waiting for me. i guess the paper bag is a little less creepy.

Okay, my creepo meter just went off. If you do intend to show the car to this person, meet them somewhere or go to THEIR house rather than giving them directions to yours.

don't bother calling. it's a tactic bill heard chevrolet does to get ppl. i've had the same thing happen to me when i lived closer to hickory hollow.
