It is meant to be!

Though I was online for hours (and even on Blogger for quite some time), I didn't post anything last night. I spent the whole time, while on Blogger, browsing through other peoples' blogs. Hey, at least I'm here now.

So I went down to the dealership after work yesterday--thinking I'd be test driving and (eventually) driving my car home. However, I was shocked to find out the car I wanted was pending transfer to another location. Apparently, the customer was filling out an application at the destination location. Guess what!!! He (or she) was turned down! I figured this must be meant to be! I'm supposed to go home in a sexy red Mustang!

The test-drive was wonderful! It's a little more compact inside than I thought, but then it is a sports car. It drives so smoothly, and goes fast! My friend showed up--since she had an appointment nearby--and took a picture of me in the car. LOL!

So here's the catch. They need a phone bill! It's part of the requirement from the qualifying bank. I don't use a home phone, and my job pays for my cell phone. I was told that I may be able to get by with a letter from my job stating that they pay for my cell phone and, if I ever decide not pay my car note, my phone would still be a point of contact for me....something like that. Carmax folks said they're not sure that will be enough, but it's worth a try. They're holding the car for no more than 24 hours (which means until 6pm tonight) for me. The problem is I'm not sure my job will be able to provide such a letter within the same day. I work for a very large company, and these things usually take DAYS, if not a week. It'll take some time just to track down the appropriate person.

Let's think positive! I will find the right person at work who can write such a letter. I will be able to get all of the necessary paperwork to Carmax on time. I WILL be approved by the bank for this car! I accept it! =)
