This has been a GREAT day!!

Ok first of all, I bought a 2006 Chrysler 300 Touring edition today. And I got a great deal. Pics to be posted tomorrow.

Then as if that wasn't enough, John and I just got home from seeing INXS at the Gibson Theatre at Universal City Walk. OH MY GOD!!! I got my exercise in by dancing the night away to J.D. Fortune and INXS songs. Oh and two surprises. Marty Casey opened the night with his band Love Hammers. They rocked the house. AND AND the second surprise, MIG AIELLO showed up and walked through the crowd. OH MY GOD!! I nearly wet my pants.

So between the NEW car and the concert tonight I am flying HIGH.

The only down side is I went way off my diet tonight. BUT it was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much fun doing it.

I have a new car!!!! I have NEVER in my 45 years had a new car. I mean a brand spankin NEW CAR people. WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!

It is cream with leather interior.

o0o Penni!! That's so awesome. After all the bad days you've had lately, you were absolutely front of the line for a good one soon, so I'm glad it came.

Can't wait to see pics of that car .. sounds sweet :)

Awesome

Congratulations!! But I am a bit jealous. When they were picking their lead singer, I actually watched tv. And danced away to some of the songs!!!

How cool for you and getting a new car too. Good for you. Enjoy and celebrate.

Penni I was looking at them last year and it was a toss up. A 300 or a town & country van. I got the van b/c of DD, dog, basically the room. But I came this close to getting one. They are beautiful cars...drool.... congrats !!! and mostly ENJOY.

Hugs.

Sounds like a great day indeed! As non-materialistic as I am, I gotta say I love a new car, too. It is a real rush, for some reason.

SARGE!! YES SARGE!!
Private Merrick reporting for Weight loss patrol.
SARGE!!

LOL!! Can you tell that I was a military wife at one point. You don't say YESSIR to a Sargeant cause they are Non Commission. LOL!!

Anyway, back on track this morning with diet. By the way Sarge I did exercise last night with all the dancing I did. SO THERE!!!

I just walked outside to make sure the car was actually real. I keep waiting for a phone call or the police to show up and say "Mame there has been a report of a car matching this description seen leaving the Dodge car lot under false pretenses." OH NO!! But no the car is still here and just a pretty as the first time I saw it. DROOL!!!

I am still on cloud nine.
