January 13

Busy day today already! First we took the car to the State Farm, so they could take pictures and verify that it was fixed. Look, just like new!
Then we took advantage of having the car again and hit the Jewel for groceries, ending up at Great American Bagel down the street for a little brunch action. This is a pic of the boy trying to ignore me taking five hundred pictures of him. Don't you love his new haircut? I do! He's not sure about it yet, because he tried a new barber (his name was Sal, which Mike says is great, since to be a good barber you are supposed to have a one-syllable name).

We may hit Bed Bath and Beyond later... don't know if we'll have time! No, actually, football is on the schedule (surprise).

These are flowers that my auto-body shop gave me when I picked up the Corolla today.
Crappy flowers that fall apart when you touch them never looked so good.

The coolest car repair shop in Chicago - They are going to fix my baby!!!

The worst car repair shop in Chicago - They left the Corolla OUTSIDE in the rain this weekend, resulting in a nice little puddle on the dashboard. Thanks, jerks, hope I don't have electrical damage now!

December 30, 2006 - Starting a bit early

Project 365 begins a bit early, but with a sad entry:


Deer = dead, Corolla = may be dead ($3400 of damage, value of the car is $3450).

Also, check out this: Corolla Website has, not one, but multiple songs featuring our beloved Corolla. Is it wrong that I really REALLY just want a brand-new Corolla?
