New Car

Yes you guessed it, I got a new car. No I didn't need one, but I just couldn't help myself I guess. I've like Mazda 6 cars for a while now, so Luke took me to the Mazda dealer in Crystal lake last week...they were completely out of them! The Mazda dealer didn't have any....then that weekend we go to the Ford in town and they've got one on display right out front. A 2008 Mazda 6 with a little over 14,000 miles on it, 6 CD changer, bose sound system, etc. So needless to say just one month after I pay off my Focus I sign myself up for 6 more years of debt. It only took me 1 year and 10 months to pay off the focus so hopefully I'll do the same on the Mazda. I really do miss my focus though :( It was a good car. Here's some pictures I found online of my new car, once I take my own I'll put those up.

Vacation

So at the end of the month I have a vacation coming up, I'm not going anywhere though, just taking a week off work. Well I decided I really didn't want to sit at home for a week, so I thought I'd ask some friends and see if they wanted to go to the dells for a couple days. And they did! lol We looked around and found all kinds of different resorts and hotels, but finally decided on the Wilderness resort. We would go up early Monday morning, and come home late Tuesday night, the room was $189, but if you divide that between 4 of us and it includes passes to their 3 indoor and 3 outdoor waterparks, plus they have golf, laser tag, arcades, you name it they've got it, it's a pretty good deal! Here's what our room looks like. I can't wait to go!

A Day in the City

Luke's birthday was last Monday and he always wants to go into Chicago, but we don't have anything to do their, we don't go clubbing, we don't drink, and I'm not about to drive all the way there to go to dinner. I did find these Go cards though, you can go to 25 different attractions in the city for one price. It was really nice, we were able to go to the John Hancock, Navy Pier and ride the Ferris Wheel and take a sightseeing boat tour, the Sears Tower, The Museum of Science and Industry, and take a trolley tour of they city. It was a lot of fun. I think my favorite part was when we were getting in line for the ferris wheel and Luke says to me, "I think I just got pooped on" I look at his head and there's nothing there, but he combs his fingers through is hair and something white is on his hand, I keep looking but I still can't find anything, finally his hair lands just right and sure enough, he got pooped on. Nothing big, but it was in his hair and on his jacket. I couldn't stop laughing, I cracked up the entire way to the washroom and for the rest of the day I would randomly start laughing, I don't think he thought it was as funny as I did though. :) Anyway here are some pictures, I'll add more later.

New Job

Well I started my new job as "Event Coordinator" at the Harvard Chamber of Commerce today. I have a title now, haha isn't that exciting. Today I had to sell ads for the community guide which give info about the town and a directory of businesses....like a phone book with more info about the town. I sold $1,080 worth of ads in the 3 hours I worked, not too bad I would have liked to do better, but there's always tomorrow.
