Joe was excited to be in the car when it rolled over. I was going to take a picture but no one really cares. I&#8217;m hoping I can get away with another 100,000 miles before getting a new car since we&#8217;re going to be replacing Joe&#8217;s truck soon as it is. It&#8217;s been nice not having any car payments the past two years! <\/p>\n<p>By the way, if you haven&#8217;t tried Qdoba&#8217;s naked burritos, please do. I think they are tastier than Chipotle&#8217;s and they have ground beef which Chipotle does not. Plus I got $100 worth of certificates for $50 through a local radio promo so Chipotle can suck it for now.<\/p>\n<p>I decided to clean up my feed reader again today and I really cut back on the content I&#8217;m subscribed to. Whenever there are unread feeds I feel anxious and obligated to catch up. So then instead of really paying attention, I skim over the entries. I removed True Wife Confessions even though I love reading it because I feel extra appreciation for the relationship I&#8217;m in after hearing about all the bullshit those woman deal with. I could never be with someone who doesn&#8217;t talk to me or who expects me to do everything around the house. We both work full-time so we share the responsibility of maintaining the house. Sure, I may do the majority of the cooking (and all of the upkeep for Oreo), but I have not pumped gas or washed my car in seven years. And with the exception of two weeks ago when Joe was at work and I had a friend over, I never vacuum either. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, maybe now I&#8217;ll be more &#8220;productive&#8221; with my free-time. Even if I play on the Wii or get back into Guitar Hero I&#8217;ll be getting more exercise than sitting in front of the computer. Plus I need to stop surfing late at night. I&#8217;m having enough trouble sleeping and I read the brightness from the screen can have an effect on that. I need to read more before bed or listen to my iPod (I stopped doing that for some reason).<\/p>\n<p>It just occurred to me the other day that it&#8217;s less than a month before the Cure concert and I&#8217;m not feeling a lot of excitement. I blame it on the lack of a new album which I hear isn&#8217;t being released until September. Also, I hate the venue where they&#8217;re playing. I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll enjoy the show, though. I have never been disappointed by a Cure concert. It&#8217;s always, at the risk of sounding lame, a completely magical experience for me because they are such a great live band.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Jetta reached 100,000 miles on the way home from Qdoba on Tuesday.
