Shortage due to the Japan earthquake for Honda's, even harder to get one with GPS in it (about 1 goes to a dealer a month). They had one on the lot but it was dirty and I didn't like the color, I wanted black. I'm picky about cars, in particular when they cost 30k. Wish I could have gotten 4wd! I luv 4wd.

It's gonna be pimped out tho, leather, GPS, bluetooth, sunroof etc. Luv luv luv. WANT.

... I totaled my old one :(

I looked at a lot of small SUV's, for the money you can not beat the quality and options.

Health is the #1 priority and it was great to know you both made it out alright.

Hey Omar! Yeah I miss you guys, life has just been insane for me :( Crap keeps piling on when I already don't have time for what I was doing. My laptop died the same week my car crashed, and apple had to replace the HD (it was 3 months old!!! BAD HD!) and I lost 3 months worth of pics and I wasn't very motivated to get on a computer for a bit or to do much beyond email when I was on it. So they replaced that, THEN my husbands apple died, so to save us money instead of him buying the 7200 RPM one (which is also what I had and takes a week to get for the HD upgrade and was why I had to wait a while for them to fix it) so I got the nicest 13" they offer (boo no 7200!!! Only 5400 and no quad cores int he 13") which saved us $500 and I'm happier with the more portable laptop (the speakers suck compared to the 15") so I've got a NEW COMP AGAIN FOR THE 3rd time in 4 months, still don't have all my files on it yet. My husband took my "old" new one.

Too much drama in my life, I'm not used to so much drama. I like to keep it simple.

Man Brandy! When it rains it pours is the saying :( The 13in looks to be a good option. Especially when your going around for you shoots. Could be a blessing in disguise :) But i have to agree with you having both HD's go back to back is a bummer to say the least!

How do you develop a neck with no curve? Im always nervous im looking down too much!

Well accident can "start" it and then just over time it gets worse, computer work I am sure can cause it but it really depends on the individuals body. I got in a car accident at 14 and have had problems sense and I always have neck pain. If you have neck pain thats a good indicator, pain is always the way to know you have a problem. Excersize is a big way to help combat it, and yoga.
