Well, the refinance of the Sportage didn't happen, not because my credit sucked but because I still owe $8600 on a truck worth $5500. They did try their damnedest to talk me into trading it in on a 2001 Escape with less miles or a black 2005 Sportage (slobber, drool, wipe chin) and I was almost ready to bite on the latter when I realized that the insurance on that practically new set of wondrous wheels would likely drive me right over the edge into Chapter 11. Still, I managed to score $400, most of which promptly disappeared into hotel reservations...

...and a $50 rebooking charge, since I had stupidly missed my 10:20 AM flight to Cincinnati. Well, at least I'll have familiar company on the flight down to DCA, since Delta booked me onto the same flight [livejournal.com profile] phoenixalpha is taking. It's on Northwest, but beggars can't be choosers. So, I have a little more time to get ready, refill prescriptions, deal with a little AD business, and so on. Next post from Washington.

Car dealers will do that.
Have a safe trip!

Thanks. It went pretty well, all things considered.
