I just have to buy a new one.
We really do need two cars.Well,sure.Douglas must just about live in his; you have to in real estate 1.Right.
So I'm stuck either waiting for a ride from someone,or taking cabs 2.
Then I get to listen to cabbies telling very long,very boring stories.
It's very annoying.
I don't get annoyed 3 at that.I love talkative cabbies.
Let's trade cars.You'll get lots of time in cabs.
So,how was your day?
It was a big one.I gave my notice.
Well,that certainly makes it real.Oh,yeah.
