junk food and beer

I have too much junk food and beer at my house which was supposed to be consumed during the superbowl. If anyone is around next weekend and would like to help me get rid of it I'd appreciate that very much.

Upcoming posts:
1.) What I did superbowl weekend.
2.) G35......frivilous purchase or not?
3.) Review of new Fallout Boy CD (comes out Tuesday Feb. 7th)

Thats all for now. Hope everyone sleeps well and has a wonderful and productive week.

I would say that at this point in time a G35 is a frivolous purchase. You can't have nice things in the city unless you keep them tied down with thirty feet of boat chain inside your house, with the blinds closed at all times so that your neighbors don't even know you have it. And even then you still have to paint it white, move it in at 3am, and hope people think it's a bassinet...

But yeah man, my shiny, new silver car has been punched in the face and shins an awful lot since I moved to the city. Cwhong's shiny ride has also suffered a similar fate. That Infinity is a nice car, but it wouldn't stay nice for long living on the mean streets of the dirty-durty LP, and then you $30K beauty would look like a $15K junker.

Bottom line, wait another year or two. By then you will have paid off your new TV, and you might be living in a new house that has a garage, or is across the street from some garage parking. Who knows with the way the neigborhood is growing. Or you might even move to another part of the city. I saw a house in Ridgely's Delight that was twice as big as yours, has a one car garage, and is priced $15K less than what you paid for your house.

What I plan to do is an about five to ten years when I finally have a garage for my car, I'm going to get my car professionally repainted. For about two grand they'll sandblast the old paint off, and then paint it nice, shiny, metallic red (that's the color I want), and put a couple clear coats on top of that. Then I'll get the inside all shampooed and detailed, a new seatcover for the driver seat, and voila, a brand new car for $2500. And the garage will keep it looking that way. You could do the same for your Civic.
