And the winner is.......... PRIUS



I don't know if it was the 50 mpg that got us or the "go go gadget mobile" vibe of this car. But it won the race. We test drove one today and will be going back this week to close the deal. The exterior is "space carish" as well as the inside. It features a backup camera, internal mileage monitor with flat touch screen with navigation, really I could go on and on... but basically this car is smart! Too smart!

We chose cloth interior, obviously because of our kiddo. But the exterior is still being tossing around. I am forever a fan of black cars but its Jeremys car, so he is gonna make that call....He's liking the electric blue.. yeah.. I said Electric blue.

Anyways so if you aren't laughing yet...Here's the final piece of the puzzle.
I drive a gas guzzling, v8, huge SUV... Jer will be in what is the most fuel efficient, eco friendly car on the market right now..

Yes, Yet again, Jer and I completely balance each other out~
:)

Until next time my lovies

Thinking Hybrid!!!





So the time has come for a new car. Lately Jer and I have been traveling alot out of state and hopefully we will continue... therefore we have been considering going hybrid.

41 miles and up per gallon sounds awfully appealing! And if you guys know me, you know I'm all about saving a buck.

So the cars up for consideration are the Ford Fusion Hybrid, Lexus Hs250, Kia Soul, Toyota Prius, Or the Honda Insight.....

The seach is on....TBC!

Go Team Edward!




Ok, so yes. I realize that I am a total teenybopper for liking this series. But I managed to drag the hubby out last night for the midnight premiere of Eclipse in tinseltown. First of all it was packed! I mean sold out. Luckily I had fandangoed it 2 weeks in advance....yes Im that obsessed! The anticipation was killing me trying to find our seats and get settled.



So let me just back up for a minute and preface all of this by saying that I told myself that I was not going to get caught up in the twilight bubble...well so much for that! I have got the fever...and honey his name is Edward!!



I am loving the underlying tension in this movie. The unwaivering desire Edward has for Bella enthralls me. I also can't help but get caught up in how fiercely he fights for her and how adamant he protects her, even if it means self-sacrifice. Apparently Edward has learned a thing or two in his 100 years of learning how to love.



So we know that Bella keeps begging Edward to change her. But I wonder will Edward still desire her after she is no longer human? After all, was it not her scent, her warm body, and vulnerability that drew him to her in the first place? Her calling card is her innocent sense of wonder and likelyhood of becoming a victim.



My question is this....If Edward turns Bella, will he desire her still?
