  • Wonder-Prius

    This past week I was at a Sibelius clinic Wed-Fri in Riverside from 8AM-6PM everyday…meaning that I was gone from my house from 6am to 8pm those three days…which basically means that they flew by so fast that I feel like I’m in a weird warp zone…I’ve not done that much driving in a long time. But the clinic was good and I have a great understanding of the software and was able to get to know some new folks in the process.

    …and just for the record, Sibelius kicks  Finale’s butt…WAAAAAY out of the park. I know, I can use both now. And Finale is mostly retarded. Boo.

    Speaking of Finale…I have a huge project due next Friday, and I’m freaking out about it a little. It’s a transcribing project, and I’m about half-way done. I’ll be able to jam on it this week…but my BRAIN HURTS from transcribing. It’s so taxing on my poor little mind…

    NO, I didn’t watch the opening ceremonies last night, (but I did DVR it) because I was driving to CARLSBAD TO GET A PRIUS.
    Wahoo!!!!

    The buying process was relatively painless this time since we had “pri-”ordered it…and after driving it just a little bit, it is a dream. Wow.
    Here are some pics:

    Not our car OR our house, but it’s very pretty and HOW WOULD YOU KNOW anyway?

    And, of course, the standard “photo of your new car with a random man standing in front of it”:
    Correct…this is still not our real car. Just a picture of a blue one…

    So…the car is pretty much magical.
    I mean, what car unlocks automatically when you walk up to it without ever touching anything or putting in a key?

    THE PRIUS

    What car has a POWER button instead of an ignition?

    THE PRIUS

    What car gets  45-55 miles per gallon?

    THE PRIUS!

    What car can do flips on the freeway at the touch of a button, and can also transform into an F-16 and fly away?
    YES. YOU GUESSED IT.
    THE PRIUS.

    I know! It’s an amazing car!

    I’m just saying…

    I’m fried…so tired…
    I might be a little bit out of commission this week in order to make my deadline…
