So Many Husbands Don't Know Which One to Pick

LOL- The subject will make sense if you've read the comments on the post below.

We went to several dealerships. Managed to avoid sales people at all but two. The first one was a good looking young man (I had to throw that in there :P) name Chris who was super nice and very helpful. Not pushy at all and very understanding. This was at the Subaru dealership and he showed me two cars that I really loved. One was a Pontiac Grand Prix- it was trixed out- saying it had all the bells and whistles would be an understatement. Chris told me not to fall in love with the first car I see but it was love at first sight. As long as we are comparing cars to prospective husbands- this car would be the rebel kind and Dad said absolutely not. Then he showed me a Suzuki something or other SUV- at first I wasn't sure- this would be the sensible husband-made sense but wasn't really attracted to it until until I got to know it- once I got inside I really liked it. Dad and I both drove it around. Dad didn't like the fact that it was so small but liked that it was AWD and drove so smoothly. This one I really like but wasn't sure I loved. Wanted to get it but wasn't 100% sold. Chris went and got Dad coffee so that he and I could talk. The monthly payment I just wasn't sure I could handle. Dad was leaving the choice up to me. I felt so horrible after Chris had spent so much time helping us that it seemed so wrong to walk away from the sale. I finally told dad we need to shop more. Chris totally understood and gave me his card in case I wanted to come back.

I so wish I could have taken Chris with shopping at the other dealerships. We moved on to Ford dealership and got an annoying guy named Matt. I was so frustrated at this point- having broke down and cried out of frustration a couple times that I just didn't want another sales person and def. not an annoying one. I had simply asked where the used cars were. He asked if I had a price range I said yes- told him and he went crazy- before I knew it I was driving a 2009 Ford Focus- (don't know what type of guy this would be)- and then we were pulling a beautiful candy apple red one out of the show room. Me buying a car off the show room floor. It all seemed so crazy. I told mom and dad that I felt like I had just been swept up in a whirlwind and I was about to be thrown for a loop. Sure enough the sales guy was a bit off in his price quote- as in $2,000 off. At this point I had about an hour and a half before I had to be to work (doing a coat check) and did not have time to go back on the lot and look- no Vegas wedding for me. The finance specialist took a look at his computer and found a PT cruiser in my price range- I said NO!- I understand that there isn't much in my price range but I just can't stand the looks of them. Dad, Mom and Vern (finance specialist) had a laugh at me being picky when i had such a small selection. I explained that this is my debt and that I understand its not going to be the last car I buy but I at least want to buy something I like. I do not like PT cruisers. He continued to search after it was made clear NO PT Cruisers. He was scrolling through and randomly said he had a 2007 silver Cobalt ( This would be that best friend kind of husband- you've always been friends with but nothing more until it catches you by surprise). I startled him to a stop- asked how much- he had to scroll back and looked at and said he's make it work for me. I didn't have time to take a look at it as he wasn't sure which lot it was and by this time I had only an hour to get to work. So tomorrow after church we'll head back over there and see what happens. A Cobalt is what I've wanted from the beginning so I'm rather happy about this.

I've decided that though I LOVE shopping I HATE car shopping- rather fitting because I hate the idea of dating lol. After a quick supper at a Mexican restaurant I am now at work doing a coat check. The event tonight is a silent charity auction. The event is 350 of Anchorage's elite. Some of these ladies are checking fur coats that out of boardum I googled the labels and my eyes popped out of their sockets. There is a fur coat in here that has a price tag that would pay for my car. How ridiculous is that. Tonight is going to be a long night but I have a feeling that the tips will be worth it.

Im actually hoping that it will be a normal night and the tips will still be very worth it. I need sleep. Jessa is in VA and forgot about the time difference when she texted me. Then dad woke up just sortly after and decided to clean the kitchen.

All and all its been a long stressful day (week)- that I'm ready for it to be over and to curl up in my bed and not the couch for a good nights sleep.
