I'm sick

I had such a hard time dragging myself out of bed this morning. The room felt like it was moving. My throat is swollen and my head hurts. I think I'm getting a cold, or even "the flu". I guess if I'm going to get the swine flu then now would be a good time. It has rained all week. It's too wet to work outside. I wouldn't mind building up immunity to this flu before it becomes a real problem. I don't want to make light of an illness that has killed people. Every flu kills people. Right now it appears to be somewhat mild, but who knows what it will become? I'm not big on flu shots because of the mercury they put in them. I would much rather just get the mild form of this flu and get it over with. Any way, I’m sick.

I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
