Honda

Wednesday, October 29, 2008
So I've had my Honda for about 3 months now which meant it was time to take it in for an oil change, and where I take it... you get a free checkup with the oil change.

After having the Saturn for about 3 years, I was used to going in for the simplest of things and getting horrible news in return. There was never a time that I took the Saturn in and didn't end up having to have something major fixed.

So needless to say I was nervous about taking my car in today, especially with it being new to me and it not being checked yet. Well the mechanic came out when the oil change and check up where finished and he goes "Ok so here's the news... you need a cheap tire rotation... the end. Your car is awesome."

I was like "YES! I'll take it! Do the rotation!"

So they did that and then came back out and said "OK, clean bill of health. You did a good job picking this car out" And I was handed the printout telling me today's visit would cost 44 dollars! The lowest amount I've ever seen there! I said "Wow. I am NOT used to the paperwork looking this good and everything being so easy."

And the mechanic goes "Everything's changed now, Hun! You've got a Honda!!!"

So weeee! *spins around* That visit made my day. Now I feel even safer in it than I did before.


In other news, Michael Flatley has been the guest host on Dancing with the Stars this past week...

And man... he is seriously the most charming dude on the planet. I've only ever seen silly clips of him riverdancing with his shirt off. But to see him talking and dressing in nice suits... I was totally smitten! He has the most wonderful irish accent and everything he says sounds like poetry. There is not a mean bone in his body. Everything about him is so smooth and elegant and I've never noticed until now... he is adorable! He has the cutest face. And I also did not know... he's from Chicago! That makes him even awesomer.

So I'm gonna share a clip of him performing on Dancing with the Stars. It's worth it to watch til the end if you want to see a seriously awesome shot.

My latest video

I made a video for the movie Penelope for my friend Christina who absolutely loves the film... and I must say it's pretty awesome. Sooo yea, I felt inspired and decided since I made her hubby Andy a video he asked for a while back, that I would make one for her too! And I'm happy with how it turned out.



As you can tell, I've become quite fond of the effect of speeding clips up in reverse. lol. I really enjoy it for some reason.
