What kind a day is it when...

... you can't tell if the dark spot on your knee is a bruise or dirt?

It's been a long day, on the heels of yet a longer day. DH and I drove up to Jersey yesterday to visit with his Gmom before he leaves, and to visit my girlfriend and her husband in celebration of his graduation from Rutgers! We left the house around 9am and didn't walk in the door until after 1am. It was a mega-long day and I did all the driving. Poor Beetle.

Despite not getting home until this morning, somehow I woke up bright and early this morning (well.... 8am). I popped right on the computer and posted DH's car on Craigslist. Since it was a manual transmission, and wasn't going to be bargain-basement priced, I figured that it might take a week to sell.

Boy was I wrong. 12 hours later and someone was driving off with the keys, title, and tags in exchange for hard cash. Very nice.

Of course, now that means that DH will have to drive the Beetle around for the next week or so until he leaves. I probably should have thought my cunning plan through a little better.

Ow! Fortunately your eye is okay.

As far as the scar goes, tell people you were in a duel with pirates or something...
