New car is here…partially

Yesterday wasn’t very pleasant. I’ve been fighting off the beginning of a cold with a sore throat and I managed to get the afternoon off; take an opportunity to sleep it off since I felt the worst of it was over.

Right before lunch, my iPhone went off and it was Sam (our Honda salesman) telling me the car arrived. I was under the assumption he would call when it was being unloaded from the boat in Long Beach, CA. This was then an automatic punt to Somara because it will be mainly her car and the hold up is getting the title to her truck.

The short story and conclusion to this all: the title should be in my hands today, the car isn’t completely ready (the dealership has to install a couple of the features we requested), I have to get our insurance amended to prove its covered and we go seal the deal Tuesday night.

The next step is getting the playlist together for the iPod when we take the Fit out on its inaugural cruise. This is what we have in mind, suggestions are very welcome:

  • “Drive” by the Cars
  • “Drive my Car” by the Beatles and covered by the Donnas
  • “Driving” by everything but the girl
  • “Drivin'”  by Pearl Harbor and the Explosions
  • “Car Song” by Elastica
  • “I’m in Love with my Car” by Queen

We’re open to others as long as it doesn’t involve a particular model (hence “92 Subaru” by Fountains of Wayne or “Car Trouble” by Adam & the Ants are out).
