Truckin'...

We are shopping for a truck. Yes, I have finally suceeded in wearing down poor MQE to get rid of his beloved 44 year old cloth top Beetle (any buyers out there? It IS an antique, for diehard VW Bug fans...) to see the reason in getting a truck, maybe a Tacoma. Approved for the loan at the lowest rates, so we can do it, but phew! What effort! Just no longer practical with two little kids and, once having a yard it's really helpful to have a hauling machine for rock, mulch and the like.

Then, the Green me talked him out of a 4WD as a 2WD gets better gas mileage...plus, if we already have a 4WD Subaru, why on earth do we need 2 4WD cars???? There is absolutely no reason beyond selfish desire.

Speaking of Green, we tried Elevation Burger yesterday for lunch...all organic burgers, fresh-cut fries done in olive oil, real milkshakes. Tasted pretty good...not Fosters, but also not the grotesque amount of food you get with a regular Fosters burger. I like the grilled burgers better than the fried burgers, however...if you are a McD's fan, you'd love Elevation, and the prices are not bad. If you don't like McD's, in which category I find myself, then I guess you're SOL.

From Green to Nerdy...

There's a sudoku tournament coming up. Winner gets trip for 2 to London. Should I go for it?? jajaja. Would be fun, kickin' some sudoku booty. We'll see. If it's meant to be, it's meant to be.

Okay, I got up at 6 on a Saturday morning just so I could get a workout in that my son did not permit me to get yesterday, so wish me luck. Gotta keep myself in shape! Sometimes I think that's all I've got left.
