where have all the civics gone? We are car shopping. It sucks.

I was stupid enough to include my phone number in the quote checks online so am now getting countless calls from random 800 numbers at home. None of them leave messages and I'm not dumb enough to pick up and talk to them.

But if I did? They would tell me that they do not have any of the car I want in stock. (seriously, like 20 dealers, and none have the model I want!) And, by the way, why on earth would you want to drive a manual transmission? Note: fuck off! NO SALE FOR YOU!

Hello, I am willing to thrown money at you, actually. If you would just have a damn car in stock!

I have found exactly two cars that fit the bill, anywhere. Both are dark sparklyish gray. Not a bad color, but I soooo wanted the bright sparkly blue! Sigh... I suppose it's better than some of the other colors offered - bland beige or taffeta white. No offense to anyone who likes these - I just like BRIGHT! COLORS!

And yes. We are buying a car and a home in the same month. Talk about stress? We did NOT plan this. Grrr. Perhaps we could make it a three-fer and get pregnant or something? ;) Haha. NO!  ¶ 10:57
