I understand why people kept trying to buy my Jetta off me. They're rare as shit on the market, the VR6s. I'd drive another one in a heartbeat, same year and all, and I haven't found one in the area.
Oh, I'm gonna go to the special hell.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Brian's beemer has heated seats. He's kind enough to warn me he's warmed the seats ahead of time so I don't worry I've wet myself...
That's totally what I thought the first time it happened to me!
I really don't have any interest in any of the Best Picture nominees, which kind of bums me out. Although my mother loved Hugo. They saw The Help, too -- I can't believe my parents totally beat me in Oscar movie viewing!

I loved Hugo the book version. I have seen exactly ZERO of the oscars nominees!

Oh no. Not true. I saw HP (which is up for art direction).

ita I wish I had some car buying advice, but I don't other than be willing to leave the dealership if they won't listen.
I got to work an extra shift today, which is good, but next week is even worse than this week. And Penny has gone into heat. I was hoping I'd have one month at least before this happened. Monday I have to figure out how much it will cost to get her spayed and if there's a low cost spay place,

I liked the Help. I want to see stuff because I have often been pleasantly surprised in my Oscar cram by seeing stuff I otherwise would have missed.

I liked the book fine, but I really just read it, so don't feel any need to see the movie now.

Because books.
I don't think I've seen anything but Harry Potter and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. There aren't a lot I want to make a huge effort to see, though.

I only skimmed the noms, but all that stood out to me was Nolte in The Warrior. I do want to see Moneyball, but I'm leery of actual baseball content. I guess I'll see Dragon Tattoo eventually too.

Actually, I lied -- I'd very much like to see The Artist, Hugo, and Albert Nobbs. And I will probably see Jane Eyre (which I want to see anyway), Bridesmaids, and Midnight in Paris before the show.
I'm not sure I can watch Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close even now, though.
