The New Ride

I should've had time this weekend to post about the rest of my cruise vacation.

But I unfortunately only accomplished five things:

-making dinner for friends Friday evening
-celebrating a friend's birthday Saturday evening {until 4:30 in the morning} and sleeeeping
-seeing the movie "The Blind Side", which I love love looooved
-going to church this evening
-licensing my car, uggggghhhhh!!!!!

Oh Virginia DMV, how I loathe you!

Although truth be told, the nine hours I spent "licensing and titleing my car" were really the result of a silly error on my part. I made every effort to be fully prepared before heading the DMV on Saturday morning, but I asked the seller to sign on the wrong line. I'll spare you a play-by-play and only share that I drove to 3 different DMVs {each a half hour away from each other} that day, spent nearly four hours "waiting", and ended the whole thing by getting completely lost with not a clue as to how to get home. Lovely situation when your car guzzles gas.

But I DID make it home in time to enjoy a delicious meal with 10 other friends {cooked by my roommate}, watch a bit of my football game {although I intended to see the whole thing}, and go out on the town with everyone.

I was thrilled to finally get the new plates on my new car. So thrilled that I snapped a couple pics.

Introducing my hot black SUV! :) It's not brand-new, but it has very low mileage and came at an affordable price. I'm excited! {Sorry for the blurry pictures.}
