Car saga: conclusion
Well, it's all done now. After a month and a half of fighting with the insurance company and frantic car shopping, I have a new car. She's a 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier, silver, with new brakes all around, new exhaust, and two new tires.
I call her Beatrix.
This is where I earn my nerd cred. General Beatrix is a character from Final Fantasy IX. She is the leader of the all-female army of Alexandria, and is respected as a knight of great skill. She wears a lot of white leather, is also skilled in magic, has an eyepatch (which just equals cool, because if she's that awesome with the eyepatch, imagine her with full depth perception), and kicks a lot of ass while looking hot. I think a silver Cavalier named Beatrix works quite well.
Also, my new license plates start with BETX. It's what got the ball rolling with the name.
Back to the ginger mint tea and the Kleenex for me; sick day, unfortunately a very legitimate sick day. I want my sinuses back to regular size, thanks.
