That new car smell...

Jessica and I bought a car today--a 2009 Hyundai Elantra! Talk about making real-life, adult decisions! We checked our budget (about a dozen times), and decided that we could afford the investment. Our piece of mind about car reliability (the Volvo we were driving wasn't looking very stable), plus how awesome the car was in general, made up our minds. We got a pretty good deal on it, too, so our payments are totally reasonable. I realized during the test drive that it was the first car I had ever driven that wasn't old and busted, so it was really, really nice! We also lined up an apartment in Long Beach, and we're planning to drive down in about a week and a half. Road trip! :-)

Where have I been?

Sorry I haven't updated in a while--I've been busy working and lining up stuff for Long Beach. Jessica and I are moving down there in a few weeks and we're super excited. If you want more of my awesome, swinging hilarity, please check out my basketball-related posts on http://2ndroundreach.com/. I'm "T-Mac" in the twitter feed, also.

Here's my post about why the Raptors can suck it, here's my long winded and angry rant at Blazer GM Kevin Pritchard, here's my 2009 Draft Day Quiz, here's my 2009 Playoff Awards, and my first collumn about the Orlando Magic fast break. My collumns go up every Tuesday, so if you like basketball and my sense of humor, check it out. My collumn tomorrow is really funny.
