No Longer New, But Officially Mine

Last Friday, I made my final payment on the car I bought in 2007.
Odd to think that I actually own my car now. It always felt like mine, but I guess now it’s the sense that it’s officially mine.
Coupled with the fact that I also paid off my credit card last week… things are looking pretty nice. At the end of 2009, moving in to a new year, it’s a good feeling to be feeling debt free.

HELLS YEAH

I’ve always been terrible about that sort of thing, and she’s set things up to where I feel we’re not being extravagent, staying comfortable, and still able to pay down lots of debt.And yeah, the car does look awesome in that photo… but that’s because it’s a shot from when it was new. It’s nice still, but definitely shows some wear and tear from 2+ years in the city.THE car? I misspoke. I meant MY car.
