bait and switch

looks like the car we were supposed to buy on saturday was actually sold in early april, so why they had it on the lot for people to test drive (and fall in love with) is beyond me. so again, no wheels for me. but since i'm a firm believer in fate, and since josie at schools was off this weekend anyway, and since it's the race for the cure saturday and now we won't feel like we have to run/walk the whole thing, and since it's supposed to rain on sunday for our drive to napa and i was worried about taking our new car, it all works out for the best. it actually just took a weekend that was going to be crazy busy and surely chock-full of fights between mike and i, and turned it into a fairly relaxing one where we can enjoy the race and "reflect" (as mike says). this will be our fourth race since i was diagnosed. the first one was during treatment, about halfway through chemo, and i remember wondering how many more races i would go to. i still wonder that...
