today we bundled odin in the bundle me, wired to the home monitor and chilling with the supersized paci in preparation for a field trip to go car shopping! i try to imagine what our car saleperson’s face will look like if the monitor were to go off in the showroom, while we were looking over the vehicles. no alarms went off but we did get a lot of quizzical looks as you could see people trying to figure out what the wires were that were coming out of his carseat. nobody bothered to ask.

yeah. that’s right. we’re shopping for a minivan. sadly, we’ve discovered quite quickly that the tdi wagon just isn’t very convenient as a family vehicle, especially with two dogs.

so, knowing full well that i was about to do one of the last things i ever though i would do, we set off to the car dealer to test out a honda odyssey.

at least i can still put on a muscle shirt and work on the ’65 galaxie 500 when i’m feeling the need to feel manly 🙂
