They're microwaving a hand on "CSI Miami."

Well, whatever floats your boat, I guess. (Yes, I know it's CSI Miami. It's like a bad parody of a real crime show! And yet, I'm watching.)

So I want a new used car, which means I'm going to have to ask around and find out if there's a used car place around here that will work with you even if you say, "My credit's so bad the bank won't even let me borrow a pen." Because really, it's ridiculously bad. I know of one place that'll work with you no matter how bad your credit is, but I'd rather chew glass than go there. All I hear about that place is that they hold your kitten for ransom to make sure you make your payments or whatever. *sigh*

I really need to finish my NaNo stuff if only so that I can write fanfic again. Whatever are the Winchesters doing without me, other than not dying to turn the other into a giant quivering pile of angst cookies?

To everybody who wrote me about my holiday wishlist: I swear I'll get back to you, I've just been really busy lately with NaNo and when I get distracted, my email suffers first.

You're SO right!

*laughs* That line just made my day.

Watching CSI Miami is like reading badfic. It's entertaining for all the wrong reasons.

Just a word of advice re: buying a used car: places that cater to folks with bad or iffy credit do three things that put them at an advantage to the buyer, 1) they jack up the interest rate so high that they make a lot of the money you pay in every month (you'll likely see no better than 1/4 go to the principal); 2) they often don't post prices on the cars, but rather set a price based off your income and your other expenses, meaning they'll set your monthly payment to extract everything not already claimed in your rent & utilities (goodbye Panera/goodbye box-set of tv show); 3) they underwrite their contracts so that they cannot and do not lose if you miss a payment... that car is repo'd and your credit's even worse.

Caveat emptor, my friend.

If you have a Drivetime near you, I've had really good experiences with them. And I had REALLY bad credit at the time.

What's not to love? Me and my mum bond over giggling fits at how bad David Caruso is. He's the US equivalent of Charlie in Casualty (for any UK viewers out there) which we have now rechristened "The Charlie Show".
