I worked a lot of hours over the weekend despite all the mental, emotional and physical maladies from which I suffered. Those maladies were a direct result of a real snag in The Plan. 13 days before my first SSRB deposit was due to show up, a different salesman from the one with whom I have been working, sold my vehicle of choice. I found out about it the morning of Friday the 13th. This was almost enough to cause a bout of triskaidekaphobia, especially piled on top of all the stress I was experiencing trying to get the repairs done on my apartment. After learning of the sale of my vehicle of choice, I was in no mood to call the office just so they could lie to me once again. So I just called Code Compliance who was told that the work would be finished by Wednesday afternoon by my apartment manager. Seeing as how I was calling on Friday morning, this of course pissed off the CC Officer who then contacted my apartments around 12:30. At 12:45 I received a phone call from the apartments stating the painters would be there at 2:30. I took a 'well I will believe it when I see it' attitude about it. However, miraculously, the painters did finally show up, and the repairs on my apartment are finished for now. I was still really bummed about the car because I was too emotionally invested in that particular car for my own good. Add a ten hour shift on a really busy Friday night to the mix, the results of which were the manifestations I told you about in my last post.
So now I had to pick out a different vehicle to purchase on the 25th which is only 9 days away now. There was a couple of other two door cars on the lot, however, I could not bring myself to look at any of them due to the mental malaise in which I found myself. However, I returned to the dealership on Saturday morning and got to looking at another coupe that was also a 2008 model. It turns out that the price on this one was the same as on the Focus, yet it had more luxury features and 10,000 few miles on it. I don't want to invest so heavily emotionally into this car until it gets a little closer to my first SSRB deposit, yet it is a pretty nice car of which I could easily fall into love. The car is a Pontiac G5 coup which is the Pontiac version of the Chevy Cobalt. The G5 is a slate color which is a dark bluish gray. In some light conditions it looks more blue than gray while at others it looks more gray than blue. The G5 has power everything (locks, windows, side view mirrors, steering and brakes) as well as cruise control and a 4 speed automatic transmission. Pontiac always made sporty, performance oriented, fun to drive cars and this car follows in that tradition. So if the G5 is still available on the 25th, that is probably what I will purchase. Here is a collage of some images I found on the internet of the G5:
