My car hates me, but my pants are pretty cool…

Wednesday, December 17, 2014

My car is old.  Like… REALLY old.  It's a 1998.  The darn thing is nearly as old as I am (which makes me practically pre-historic).  Don't get me wrong… I love my little bug, but he (it's a boy… named Grandpa Jack… GJ for short) is getting ornery in his old age.  He likes to beep at me when I'm going around roundabouts and today, he stalled (even though he is an automatic) no less than 4 times while driving from my coffee date back to work.  I'm getting to be afraid to drive him because he's probably going to explode and launch me halfway to the moon and I hate to say it (cos it's kind of like cheating on him), but I'm really starting to miss the car that is waiting for me in the states.  There's something about a reliable car with seat warmers, keyless entry, and steering wheel controls that I'm really wishing I had right about now…

In other news, this might be my new favourite outfit.  If my soul were made of fabric, I'm pretty sure it would be paisley…

      Thanks! I've rediscovered that if I verbally give it positive reinforcement while driving, it tends to cooperate with me!

      Gracias! I'm almost looking forward to whenever we move back to the states. I left an almost brand-new car there! It's waiting for me!

      Lol… I love them! They are super soft and cozy and once the weather warms up a bit more, I think I will probably live in them!

    Thanks, pal! I think that there is a chance that I'll be around in October. What shall we wear? Probably cardigans? Right?
