224th New Thing - Bought a Subaru

I didn't have time to post last night, therefore I'm posting this late as this occurred yesterday (Thurs 5/31/12).

I bought a black 2009 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Sedan for about $18,000 (also got $2,500 off for my trade-in) at Groove Mazda. It is 4 cylinder, 170 horsepower, 4 speed automatic, all wheel drive, PZEV, 9-speaker Harman Kardon sound system, with power everything (including moonroof). PZEV means it is a Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle which is a vehicle that has zero evaporative emissions from its fuel system, has a 15 year (or at least 150,000-mile) warranty on its emission-control components, and meets SULEV tailpipe-emission standards. This vehicle category was created as part of a bargain with the California Air Resources Board (CARB), so that the automobile manufacturers could postpone producing mandated zero emission vehicles (ZEVs), which will require the production of electric vehicles or hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Harman Kardon is a supplier of audio equipment to a variety of vehicle manufacturers including, BMW, Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, MINI, Saab, Harley-Davidson, and Subaru. I believe the 9-speaker audio system includes tweeters, woofers, and an amplifier. The car was about $750 more than I wanted to spend but I think it will be worth every penny!

111th New Thing - Took a Zyrtec

If you recall, I went to the dermatologist to get a skin screening for the 1st time back in December. When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u...

364th New Thing - Ate a Mini Lemon Bites

My co-workers birthday was today so to celebrate they bought her a vanilla cake, a chocolate cake, and mini lemon bites from Costco . I had some chocolate cake and a mini lemon bite. These are made by Upper Crust Bakery . They supply Sam's Club, Starbucks, Costco, Kroger, Whole Foods, and BJ’s Wholesale Club. Both desserts that I ate tasted good. According to the Livestrong Calorie Tracker , 1 mini lemon bite is 130 calories, 19 g carbs, and 1 g protein. What did you do today?
