Here’s some fun news I don’t think I’ve shared on the blog yet: I got a new car! It was way overdue. My old car, Cyd the Sentra, was 11 years old and had lots of bumps and bruises and rattles (which also describes me on some days). Cyd still had my faded, peeling Indiana Law sticker on the back, so people who saw it probably said to themselves, “That poor girl spent all her money on law school and now she’s a waitress. How sad.” But now I have a brand new Hyundai Ioniq hybrid that tells the world I’m a relatively successful adult human who makes responsible financial decisions and cares about reducing her carbon footprint.

This is my very first new car, and it feels SO. FANCY. To give you an idea of the level of upgrade, here’s a list of all the bells and whistles that I had on my old car: Power windows, and um…a horn.

And here’s a list of the bells and whistles on the new car: Heated seats (my favorite part!), cruise control, push button start, keyless entry, backup camera, blind spot detector, touchscreen dashboard, and I think there’s a button that turns it into a spaceship. And best of all, it’s a hybrid! I’ve had it for 2 weeks and I’ve only used half the gas tank. I’m pretty much in love with Leslie (that’s the new car’s name).

Oh, and she’s gray so she matches all my outfits. 🙂
