I should be in bed by now. I think I'll go upstairs once I finish writing.
I need some Elliott on my computer. I really want to listen to him right now.

Work has been great the past few days because it has been slow.
The cutest kid came in with his mom today. He's obsessed with vacuum cleaners so he kept pretending the broom was one. He had to get a passport picture taken but he wouldn't keep his head up straight because he was mentally retarded & that's how that works. After a few takes we finally got one that was acceptable. I think his mom was about to cry because she was so happy he had been able to take a picture with a good smile. It was adorable. So now she's getting the photo enlarged to a 5x7 so she can frame it. Those types of things make me happy. I was genuinely happy for that kid/Mom.

I've become very serious in my car search and I believe I'll have one within the first few weeks of school...hopefully even sooner. I'm having price debates with my mom (note: I'm buying the car with my own money). she thinks no more than like, $1500. I say no more than about $3000. I have over $4000 saved but I want to keep some for spending money in college. However, my whole reason for saving this money my entire life has been so I could buy myself a car I liked once I was older. NO ONE UNDERSTANDS THAT. I don't want to drive around a 1988 oldsmobile. I want a young person's car (example -> Cavalier). I've found a bunch of Cavaliers in my price range. Everyone argues I should get something with lower mileage but if I'm only going to be driving it for a year (their main argument as to why I should buy a cheap car) why is it necessary to buy something with low mileage? I'm not going to put THAT much on it within a year. LOGIC, yo. Ultimately, I'll just buy something that I won't be embarassed to drive in & doesn't give me REALLY high insurance (there is no such thing as low insurance in NJ. Bastards).

That's enough for now. I think I'll finish talking to Cailin and move upstairs into my comfortable bed.
Good morning.
