I'm in the market for a car - well, sort of. I'm strapped for money, but I hope to be driving a new car within a month's time. Labor day specials are coming up, though, and it's difficult to to pass up some of these sales. Especially now, when the specials are in place AND its the end of the month (need to meet monthly quotas). Who knows, maybe I'll be in a civic within a week.

It's hard not to like the Civic, but people have been convincing me that the Elantra is good. In fact, I've only heard goods things about it. Except, I don't really like the way it looks. The civic is not beautiful, but it's the typical car, and I love it because ... well, because I have one. The gas mileage is good, and it's a Honda.

Other than cars, I started work this week, but its been more of a training period more than anything. I've been taught stuff, though I hardly retained anything I learned over the past two days. I spent most of my today cleaning out my office. There is still a lot of clutter that the past law clerk left, and it's really a pain trying to organize everything. It doesn't help that I work in a historic building that is falling apart (it's one of the oldest courthouses in America... the water fountains don't work and the insulation is horrible) and that my judge isn't there to tell me what I can and cannot throw out. He apparently doesn't want anything to be thrown away, which is a problem for me. My office makes it look like the digital age never came.

All this re-organizing is making me tired. Took care of errands in the city after work and went straight to the community center to shoot an "Office" skit.
