Guess Who's Back

So, just over a solid month, I finally got my car back last night... my precious! It looks so great; looks like a brand new car! I can't describe how much missed it!!! The leather scent (smells so good), the sound of the speakers (my God, the sound is wonderful), the speed (I have a dire need for speed), etc…

The costs of repairs were considerably high, though I didn’t have to pay a single cent. The thing I heard from most people over this last month is how I should just have the car totaled and get a new one because of all the bad luck I’ve had with the car. What people don’t understand is that I love this car. I personally don’t consider any of the unfortunate events that happened to my car to be bad luck. Sure, two tires exploded while traveling down the highway at 80+ mph… but I was able to maintain control and not get into an accident either time. Sure, a crazy, stoned bitch slammed into the driver side of my car sending it spinning 5-6 times across an intersection… but my car kept me safe as I walked away without a single injury (while I’m completely confident that most people would have died in that same collision.)

So I have my baby back. It’s like a Phoenix raised from its own ashes!

Good grief! Much as I'm feeling your love for the car, reading about these so aptly titled "unfortunate events", I'm pretty glad that I don't drive!

The_Barlow - The unfortunate events are just the facts of life... you take the good and you take the bad. At the very least, they've made life a bit more interesting. :-D

Siren - Woman... I swear! You stop hating on my baby! :-P

Well, I didn't think to take one right after it was destroyed... it's not the same if you can't see the before and after.

NO!!! IN NO WAY SHOULD YOU EVER TOTAL THAT CAR AND GET A NEW ONE...
down with the naysayers...I understand what it means to truly love a car and never want to get rid of it...just look at my car

Does he KNOW that the car is a spawn of the devil???? I doubt it. You need to stop sniffing its fumes...it's brain-washing you!!

Siren said...

Don't forget you were hit by some illegals AND you were sprayed by pink spray paint!

I'm glad I have you around to remind me of these things... Chewie! Take the Professor in back and plug her into the hyperdrive!
