Today I feel a little bit run-down. Hrm..but totally worth it because I really did have a blast going out with Gaby last night...I'm just pooped.
I got up for brunch - partially because I was hungry, but mostly because I love Ms. Rose. That woman always makes me feel better. :) I loaded up with scrambled eggs, bacon, and a waffle. Yum.
After brunch I couldn't sleep, so I cleaned my room, realized I could indeed get the plastic clips to adhere to my wall, and so I got to hanging my Christmas lights.
I try to have at least one strand of Christmas lights in my room all year round. It just makes me happy, and it's much less invasive than harsh white lights. Being OCD, it took me 2 episodes of House of Cards to get them hung...and then I had to make both sides even...which took half of a third episode. TOTALLY worth it though.
And then, my parents call me to tell me that if I want to get in on the trade-in, they had to make the decision by that afternoon. AH! I searched colors, decided I'd be okay with white, black, red, or dark green. NOT that alien green. I also told them that it HAD to have the sound and light package like NuNu does and one that came with remote start.
They found one.
I said DO IT. (oh man).
I called around trying to find out if we could get the remote start taken out of NuNu so I could give it to Jarrod since he's the one that bought it, but KNicole had driven it to work and my parents had to drive to some tile store far away, so they weren't able to get it done.
They did it.
I had Nom tell NuNu she had been a good car, and then I cried a little. I told you how I am about inanimate objects. NuNu was my first NEW-NEW car (hence her name), and I got a bit attached. Don't judge me.
They called me after to let me know that the payments had gone up by like, $4 but that was it.
I was pumped.
Then they told me that they had to sign a 6yr note.
And then I freaked out.
I'm sorry. I'm like, 14. I don't know anything about trade-ins. When I was told we were right side up with NuNu, I thought that meant we traded it in, paid for TTL, and then had the same amount of payments left. NuNu was halfway paid off...and it was a huge deal for me. Yes, my parents have been paying the payment for me for awhile now, but it still was a big deal. I had been considering a trade-in, but had decided to just pay it off and get her repainted instead.
Now I was back at square one.
And I mean I FREAKED OUT.
I got off the phone with my parents and called Jarrod, bawling my eyes out, because everyone else was working and I didn't know what to do.
2hours later and I was still freaking out - every time I'd calm down, I'd think of something else and get upset again.
So I just called Nom again.
Woman had me chilled out in less than 10minutes. She's just good at that kind of thing. I don't know what it is, but I love her more and more for it every day.
Now that I'm more relaxed I'm just going to try and go to sleep watching some West Wing. Which REMINDS ME! Episode 11 of House of Cards?? Won't play. Every episode before will. The final two after will. I figured it wouldn't be a big deal - they always reference the previous episode in the current one. I start episode 12 and BAM! A main character is DEAD, and another is no longer there...no idea what happened to that one...it figures. The ONE episode I can't get to play is the most intense.
Sheesh.
Holy crap. I have a new car.
*Until Next Time!*
