Day Two

I'm selling my car-- which is only peripherally related to wanting to be a movie star-- but related because I just bought a new car. A 2008 Nissan Sentra. A car for reliability, economy, maneuverability, and safety. Because I plan to drive it across the country. To move to Los Angeles. To become an actor.

Since I finally bought a new car (after a month of obsessive comparison shopping), I have to sell my Old Car. Let me provide a resume for my Old Car:
Name: Buick LeSabre
Birthdate: 1992
Qualifications:
Good Engine
Couch-like Seats
Surprisingly large amount of storage space
Peeling Paint on the ceiling
Needs new struts/a tie rod (translation: you can't drive it unless you get it fixed)
Passenger side lock only works manually
Tape Player (broken)
Cracked Windshield
Busted Front Tire
Okay Other Tires But I Bought Them Used, So Drive At Your Own Risk

Asking Price: $995 (like $1,000 but I'm tricking you.)

So-- put yourself in this position: you are looking through Craig's List and you see a car that looks something like the one above. You decide it's exactly the car you need. That's because you're desperate.

Over the past day, I've gotten constant calls from people in bad enough situations to want to buy a nine hundred dollar broken Buick. Yesterday a man named Earl called-- he was going to take a day off of work to drive 2 hours and get my car. He just finished chemotherapy. A woman named Laura called me today-- her car just got stolen. Another woman just called-- her house was foreclosed and she needs somewhere to stay.

That last phone call didn't happen. BUT- can't you see how I feel like I'm preying on the victims of fate? So-- every time someone says they want the car, I make sure to say, "It's not really driveable, you know that?" I feel like I'm turning a blind eye to people who need more than a nine hundred dollar car-- I'm close to giving them my new car.

Oh well. Today I also made a calendar for my website's construction. This website will have all sorts of goodies on it-- such as videos of me acting. It will be quite a romp.

Until next time,
The Merciless Weasel of a Saleswoman, Me
