It's been snowing like crazy here. If it didn't make the roads so awful, I would say it's gorgeous. I guess it kinda is.

I had my first day at Damon's today. Ugh, I'm gonna start looking for another job already. I really am not looking forward to being a hostess...again. At least it's money I guess.

So, I never did tell what kind of car I got. She's a red, '86 Jetta and her name is Agnes. You can call her Aggie if you want.
