Little Red Corvette

Ok, not exactly … but this is my little red corvette:

So while my apartment screams poor grad. student ... my new car winks and says: "How you doin?"



Isn’t it adorable?! I love it. I can’t stop smiling, I like it so much. The XD was a great choice for me. I have already laid down the 60/40 rear splitting back seats to fit in the laundry and trash bins, as well as furniture and organizational bins. It is tons of fun to drive and the coolest feature is the direct connection for my ipod! The pioneer stereo (it comes standard) allows you to scroll through the music on your ipod with the stereo controls … AMAZING. Seriously it’s the best new car a girl could have. It’s a little bigger than just a regular four door … but still small. Its spunky and fun and well … just look at it!




For the record … all my clothes were packed in boxes and this was the only clean shirt I had … so I had to break my own rule of never wearing clothes that make you look like a tree. We also had spent the entire day flying, driving, loading and unloading boxes and suitcases, moving those boxes and suitcases up two flights of stairs, trying to fit a full size bed (which I got for $40, thank you very much) in the back of a mini-van and then driving across town and taking it out again … so that is why I look the way I do.

Inspecting the trunk and checking out all the cool features and compartments.


Rear view ... literally.


Self portrait with my new car .... what should I name her?

Just yesterday I was thinking, when is Bethany going to post some pictures of her car?? It is AWESOME!!! So, so cute. I love it! It is cute and fun, just like you, you were made for each other.

This is the cutest!! And it screams "Bethany!!" You should always drive a red car.

Also, I have to say your "rule of never wearing clothes that make you look like a tree" is hilarious. I didn't know you had that specific rule, but that's probably a rule to live by. Though I will admit I didn't think you were dressed like a tree until you said so.

Annie ... I was actually contemplating Ruby Red Riding Hood (calling her Ruby for short of course) hahaha ... my niece Monica tells a story of Ruby Red Riding Hood (who knows why) and that's what made me think of it. I will keep you posted.

remember Cocoa!? Man she was a nice car... (me exhaling with good memories and arching my head slightly to the side) Okay so we must name this car, or course chili would always do or pepper. Hold on for a second while I wait for an epiphany... I GOT IT. Are you ready?! SHAKIRA! IT'S HOT IT'S LITTLE AND THE MEN WILL COME TO IT! No need to thank me, just promise me you'll give me a ride in her when I come to visit you :)

Nice car! Yeah. Keeny think you should call it "Red." He likes it. Monica says, "It's awesome." And she said you should name it "California Car." I cannot explain where than name came from. :) But Ruby Red Riding Hood comes from an episode of "Max and Ruby," a Nick Jr. show.
