Sometimes You Love What You Hate


Today has been a very trying day. One of those 'everything that can go wrong has gone wrong' days and right now I don't love my car as much as I should (this is a blatant lie by the way... I really do love my car a lot, but I am a little mad at it right now) so I have come up with a thank you list to my car to remind me how much I owe it.

Dear Dave, 

Thank you for...

...giving me the freedom to go where I like, when I like
...giving me somewhere warm to sit on cold mornings
...making sure that I don't have to walk home in the rain
...putting a solid barrier between me and crazy drivers on the road
...making me feel a little more like a grown up
...the ability to be a friend who can give other friends a lift when they're stuck
...being a lot of fun to drive
...not being a really crap colour

What freedom does your transport give you?

The Secret Is Revealed

source

I got a Subaru Impreza last week, and he is beautiful.

I didn't know that I was going to be changing my car this year. In fact, when I went home last weekend I ordered a new part from the garage to fix up the bumper of my own civic to repair the damage from a little crash I was in during the bad weather. Within about 4 hours of getting back from the garage I had a Subaru. So I canceled the parts!

I am so excited - I even squee-ed (courtesy of Sarah Von). I am not, nor have I ever been a petrol head but still! It's a Subaru, and it is a lovely car to drive, and I know who drove it before me and it was never, ever driven hard.

Now all I need is a name for him. Can you please, please help?
