84. - get a “new” car - completed

meet Della Mae, my new car. well new to me.
she's a 2002 Nissan Sentra SER.
she's got power windows and locks, working A/C and a sunroof.
she's the nicest car i've ever had.
she's also got some pep in her step with a 2.5 liter engine. (i think that's what it is)
i've only driven it a little, but driving is starting to feel fun again.

i desperately needed a car, so i had to get one as soon as possible.
and i managed to accomplish a task on my 101 list at the same time.
sweet!

23. see a Broadway/Off-Broadway musical - completed!

i went to see Avenue Q at the Warner Theatre tonight.
i went with Albert, April, my brothers Markus and Joe and Joe's friend, Anitra.
Steve was supposed to go, but had to drive up to Lancaster for family issue.
so, Markus went in his place.

i've been wanting to see this musical for a couple of years now.
i missed the show the last time it was in town,
so i was absolutely determined to see it this time.

i loved it! it was hilarious and i would totally see it again.
i definitely want to get the soundtrack.

we're planning on see Rent in May.
whee!
