Okay, I came in today and I could hardly believe what I was seeing. Is CDs finally becoming a "man"??? A family man????

Now I know every man has to change but not every man probably will but is this the end of the CDs as we think we've known him and the beginning of another??? I know it's better than CDs becomming like Jeff but hey, what do you guys think stuff like this. I think he is changing, for the better. LOL!!!!

so yea....i'm not considering it based on looks, i'm considering based on cost to own.

another reason why i would like that, is because the jetta i was wanting, for an older car, isn't much cheaper than one of thsese. and alot of the jettas i've been finding have 65k + miles. so far, the one w/the most amount of miles has been 110k, and it was a 2001 model! I don't know how reliable that particular car is, or why the car would be wanting to get sold, etc. whereas a new car, i know exactly what kind of miles they are, and i know the entire maintenance history, cuz you know....i'll be doing the maintenance from day one.

with every passing day, i'm becoming more grown up. now, i do not look out for just myself anymore. i have two other people that need me in order to live better. those same two people, want me to simply be happy when i am there. knowing that they are happy with me there in turn, makes me happy .

Naaah. It kinda just happens. When I had to move my life into a new direction I had to start driving a yellow bug. You just kinda get used to it and learn it just makes your will stronger.

i've been learning alot this past year. learning how to be more responsible, and how everything isn't about me anymore. It's about everybody else first, then me. I don't care what the rest of my family says (parents, aunt/uncles, etc.), they can give me their opinions, but that's about it. they can't tell me what to do. If they want to tell me what to do, they'll have to point a gun to my head first
