Car Shopping

Well we went to Lewiston today and looked at cars. We found a 2002 Honda Civic that was pretty nice, we also liked a Subaru Outback but funny thing was it wouldn't turn on. Wouldn't start, electric locks didn't work, nothing, couldn't even get it to jumpstart so we decided it might not be the best choice. The salesman was pretty embarrassed, poor guy. We also test drove an Accord and a Suzuki Verona but didn't like either of those too much. I guess at heart I just want a sports car. Accords just aren't too nimble feeling. The Verona was the size of a civic with the features of an accord. So you just pay for bells and whistles and no extra space. We wanted to test drive an xB but the one they had at the dealership was sold as we got there. A very popular car apparently.
Oli is working night shift tonight 9pm-7am. Poor boy, the cafe isn't open at this time at night so no free coffee for him. Harsh, but definitely for the best if he has to draw any blood. So he will be spending tomorrow sleeping.
Only 11 weeks til my due date, it sounds so much sooner that way then when you say 3 months. It is getting very very very real. Exciting and just a bit scary. So much to do to get ready and so much to buy. Expensive little bugger. Clothes, toys, blankets, carseats.....
