Budget, Shmudget

So, there's a car dealership near my apartment complex that's called Mad Max's. I've always thought that it was an odd name for a car dealership, but whatever. It's kind of small, and definitely has a lot of "personality." Today I was riding the bike home, and because I was coming from a direction that I don't normally come from, I rode right next to Mad Max's. They have flags out on poles in front of the place and I was riding right underneath them. The flag's had skulls and cross-bones on them. Wow. I want to buy one of their cars.

But seriously, I do want a car. And I'm going to start saving for one immediately. Today I had a little crash on the bike, and before that I was freezing as I was riding the bike, and I realized (for like the 4th time in a week) that I need to buy a car. So, I'm going to start planning that into my budget, and we'll see how it goes!

  1. Good luck with that. I hesitated a lot when I bought my new car, but I am discovering that it fit right into my budget perfectly once I made room.

  2. I understand the whole need a car thing, and crashing bikes in the snow definitely is not fun been there done that... and cars yes they are cold when you get into them but they keep the wind and snow out of your face so you can at least partially see, so i hope you get the car you need :)

  3. so, as i started to read this post, i was sure that you were going to share with the world how you trashed your budget, and how you got such a great steal from Mad Max's. I was all waiting for it to happen. Then, it didn't. Good for you. Defying all odds! Don't worry, just think that this will be the LAST December in snow and on a bike...not the last of this winter, but last December!
