Right now i want... ::sigh::

just in case you haven't heard, and the way gossip seems to spread around here i'm not sure that's actually possible, but humor me, i did not buy the 2004 jeep grand cherokee last night.

why? because i was impatient and impulsive and i looked like a mark, so the dealer tried to screw me over. they didn't succeed, of course; i smiled, told them to have a nice night and left, but that's not entirely the point.

now, those of you who didn't hear yesterday about the whole jeep debacle, be happy: i wasn't exactly easy to be around yesterday. since i've been looking for a new car, i had all but ruled out suv's until yesterday morning, then i saw that jeep, and i melted (as i tend to do around grand cherokees).

admittedly, it would have been great for me to be able to tell you that i had a new, safe, reliable car today. but, all is not lost. the car is still there should i want it, and now that i've almost bought one, i'm not quite as nervous about how it works or what i'll say.

in fact, i was pleasantly surprised with my tact last night. i really wanted to tell them to fuck off, flash a finger or two, but my manners and decorum took over and i didn't bat an eyelash :)
