sold. it was the down payment

i'll be driving her in every day, but I don't wanna take flak for not playing the "life sucks right now" game and being miserable.

i saw the opportunity, figured out what i needed to do to make it work and did it. its no one elses issue, i know, but alas, I have a feeling this is going to stir the nest if you know what I mean...
