When bored, visit with your local car salesman to pass the time!

So, nothing new is going on in Red Wing, so I talked with my Mom and told her, I am bored, so I either need to dye my hair or get a new pet. This being the hobbies me and my friend Kristen have picked up whenever we are bored. Luckily we are not bored all to often. Well, this came much to my Mom's dismay and she stated your not dying your hair, and your not getting another pet!!!! Okay, there goes that idea! Hurmmph.... My Mom then suggests that I go look at cars. Hmmm.. why not, as long as I don't give the salesman a false impression, right?

So, I drove around the lot when a good looking young man steps in front of my car! Yikes, are sales that bad that they go to such extremes, I just wanted to look! Being as he was cute and all, I decided not to run him over, and I got out of the car and spoke with him. I explained that I was just looking, didn't know what I was interested in, had a long time to look, and wouldn't look seriously until I moved up north and established my finances. He then stated, where from up north. As I explained he said, "what a small world my girlfriend is from up there." Well, there goes that idea!!!!! So, he asked me to test drive the Chevy Torrent that I was looking at, and I said, "No thinks, I don't want to waste your time, I am just looking." He then got excited stating, "No, I am bored, it is no problem, we can test drive as many cars as you would like, trust me your doing me a favor!" Alright then, but I still didn't want to drive something I really wasn't interested in. They had no Impala's that I was interested in, so I decided to try out the Chevrolet Colorado, since I was always interested in the turck, but too practical to test drive one or take it seriously, but gas prices are down, and why not. BIG MISTAKE, I WANT A TRUCK!!!!!!!!!!! *sobs* So, we drove around, chatted about vehicles, fishing, Wisconsin, salmon fishing, Boundary Waters, horses, and all manner of things that we both had common interests in. He was a lot of fun, and he must have thought the same because he kept encouraging me to drive more and more. Eventually I drove back to the lot, and he immediately pointed out anything and everything to try out, again stating he was bored and would be glad to go out and test drive more vehicles. I politely looked at a Bonneville, and shot his offer down. I then said, no thanks.... no thanks.... and left. Three minutes later he calls (I gave him my phone number in case any specific vehicles came in that I would be really interested in) and says, "I forgot to ask, did you want to drive that Torrent, I have time on my hands and it is no problem to take it out."

So I though about it and came to the conclusion that A. He is really broke and really needed to make a sale to be that desperate, B. He was bored, and had a lot of fun roaming around through town, C. He liked talking with me, or D. (in my hopeful mind) He wanted to set me up with a friend of his. Then I realized, great... I forgot he lives in Somerset Wisconsin, which is an hour away.... and I politely stated again, "no thanks."
