I just want something NICE that I can afford. That's nice in my opinion and I can afford it! I just feel bad having 3 vehicles.... I don't take the Civic to nice nights out, you know? I want something that I won't be embarrassed to take to a nice hotel or Daniels Broiler or something.

I think Tesla's are rubbing off on me :shock: I'm getting spoiled.

You could have a b6 s4 for that price ;) or b7 a4

Honestly, you won't know what you can truly afford until you get in the middle of it. I'm feeling the pinch right now (summer time in a house with pitched ceilings = expensive bills, piled on top of car payment and insurance). It's really making me stretch my money, but hopefully I'll have a much, MUCH better paying job soon. We'll see.
All in all, sell that integra, keep your civic, use the teg money as a down on whatever it is you want to get, and be done with it. If you want the CC, sell that teg for like $1500 +/-, save another $500, put $2k down. Get them to give it to you for $14.5k out the door, give them $2k down, your payments will be peanuts. I put $1k down, and it got me a very comfy payment.

Yep! I paid $16k out the door after taxes/licensing on my B7 A4. It's a much nicer car than the CC (they had one on the lot.. reminded me of a Chrysler 300. YUCK). Also one original owner with low mileage.

Doing a little research on full wire tucking and seeing if that is the direction I want to go next while I rebuild the gsr. Pretty much talking myself out of it as I did with my euro r swap in 2006.

What happened to that employee finance thing? :O
There is none! We'll see about the Gen III in like 2017/2018

Sell that pos teg.
The Civic looks way better and it's your baby. Civic is the toy, VW is the daily.
She's having trouble pulling the trigger on a used VW, now imagine a new Tesla. That's what happened to it.




So now that's out of the way and I helped you. Help me with this script. :lol:
The teg is going definitely. But then I have ANOTHER toy: the R6.

Yeah that's exactly what I'm going to do. Except my folks are buying the Integra from me for $1000 (with a new transmission and service up to date, and I'll be there to fix it when something happens). I'm putting 2k down on the CC. It's just scary to buy something THAT big, you know? When I dropped 3k on my bike that was pretty scary. I could barely imagine me trying to buy a house.... :shocked2:

Reworking my syllabus, powerpoints and assignments for the web design course I'm teaching in fall. Last spring was my first time teaching it. It went pretty smooth, but some things could have been explained better. Hindsight is 20/20. Making those corrections now.

Dropping large amounts of cash always sucks. It makes me feel really uncomfortable.. I put $4k down on an Evo I bought years back, that s**t had me sweating bullets (I was only 19).

Figured out the script issue, something stupid & simple like always. Will clean it up some other day.
Uploaded all modified pieces
Just a few things left now but I think I'm done for a few hours.

Time to go grab a sub from campus, gas up, and head back to Georgia and get some pics for backdrops and just random stuff.

If you don't require insurance on a bike in Washington, I don't see the problem.

Oh my God. I could NOT imagine dropping that much when I was 19. I'm super weird about money. I hate asking for it. I hate asking to get paid back. I hate negotiating. I will talk myself out of buying ANYTHING.

What is this script that you speak of?

Legally I don't have to, but it would be a good idea. I just hate insurance companies. f**king scammers.

var one_day=1000*60*60*24
var one_month=1000*60*60*24*30
var one_year=1000*60*60*24*30*12

function displayage(yr, mon, day, unit, decimal, round){
today=new Date()
var pastdate=new Date(yr, mon-1, day)

var countunit=unit
var decimals=decimal
var rounding=round

finalunit=(countunit=="days")? one_day : (countunit=="months")? one_month : one_year
decimals=(decimals<=0)? 1 : decimals*10

if (unit!="years"){
if (rounding=="rounddown")
document.write(Math.floor((today.getTime()-pastdate.getTime())/(finalunit)*decimals)/decimals+" "+countunit)
else
document.write(Math.ceil((today.getTime()-pastdate.getTime())/(finalunit)*decimals)/decimals+" "+countunit)
}
else{
yearspast=today.getFullYear()-yr-1
tail=(today.getMonth()>mon-1 || today.getMonth()==mon-1 && today.getDate()>=day)? 1 : 0
pastdate.setFullYear(today.getFullYear())
pastdate2=new Date(today.getFullYear()-1, mon-1, day)
tail=(tail==1)? tail+Math.floor((today.getTime()-pastdate.getTime())/(finalunit)*decimals)/decimals : Math.floor((today.getTime()-pastdate2.getTime())/(finalunit)*decimals)/decimals
document.write(yearspast+tail+" "+countunit)
}
}


and then in the HTML, <script>displayage(1996, 11, 18, "", 0, "rounddown")</script>


There were some that were way longer and more complex for no reason, but this was the simplest one I could find.
Some other time I'll have to zero it in because it's not as precise as say what CC uses for example. It was display incorrectly with a 5-day window

It was a bit rough, but it was okay in the end (even though I had to give the Evo back, they made it all right).

Got a job as a security guard today =) I go to fill out the paperwork and drug test tomorrow morning. I'm relieved to say the least.

Yep. I plan on getting my armed guard license (blue card) and getting a good paying armed guard position within the company. They do a lot of close protection, bodyguard type work. I would love to do that and it pays well. So I'm focusing on gaining strength and mass, learning some self defense, gonna take some training courses, and see where it goes. I've always been interested in this career field. Honestly, I've just always put myself down because of my size. Not anymore ;)
