I’m in love with my car

Slick3

I was draggin' ass this morning, but it was my own fault for staying up so late. I was listening to music and deciding what to upload, and before I knew it, it was 3:30. Ouch man.

I had several errands to run today, so I headed out before too long, and man, was it ever a great day for a drive! Sunny, warm enough to put the window down, and the Dandy Warhols blasting. I did plenty of seat-dancing and singing along, and I'm sure I looked quite silly. I didn't care. If anyone didn't like my seat-dancing, they can just bite me! My drive had a strange effect on me...it made me feel sassy. In fact, I felt like I had stepped in a big pile of sassy. It could easily have turned to aggression, because people were driving like dicks, but I kept the level in the sassy zone. I love my car. How can I not love something that makes me feel so completely and utterly sassy? (This could very well be a private joke between Cousin Shane and I, unless someone else remembers that SNL skit!) Slick takes me where I want to go, when I ask him to he responds, and he's got that throaty growl that I so adore. Saddle up!

Tell 'em how I feel about it, Roger!

  3. The weather was freaky warm here in NY today. Inside the house I'm cold though. Leave it to me I'm probably coming down with something.

    I used to seat dance all the time. Still do on occasion, gets Paul in the mood and we look like a couple of escapees from the asylum. (Hugs)Indigo

  5. I remember that skit: Phil Hartman said "sassy!" about a billion times in three minutes. I think Christian Slater was in it too.

    And I love that song! A Night at the Opera was the very first album I ever bought. That's the third song I think? "string back gloves/in my automo-love!"

  7. i must say i love my minivan but i love anything that runs every time you turn the key that has lights, turn signals, heat, AC and a working radio. I think it is cool you love your car.

  8. I would feel 'sassy' if I was behind the wheel of a sharp Mustang like that too!!

    I thought you were referencing a Molly Shannon skit ... Phil Hartman did a superior Bill Clinton to Darrell Hammonds, in my mind.

    Yeah, everyone remembers Darrell's, but I am not being contrarian for the sake of being contrary. I still think of Phil as Pres. Clinton ...
