Zoom Zoom Zoom!

I went and picked up my new car last night! It's so pretty. It's shiny and black, and I look like a bad-ass with my tinted windows. It's really zippy and fun to drive... and it has cup holders! Dave thinks I need to soup it up with a chain steering wheel, spinners and ground effects, and perhaps I could install a 5-point harness seat belt too. I'll be street-racing in no time.

I am having feelings of grief and guilt for Omar. Before I picked up the new car last night I moved him out of his usual home and parked him on the street a block away from the house. I removed the bobble Jebus and took most of my junk out of him. I felt like I was abandoning him, and I'm feeling really sad about it even now as I write this a day later. I hope he goes to a good home with a big yard where he can play with other rusty SUVs.

My new car (nameless for the time-being)

Me in my new car (note the bobble Jebus in it's new spot)

I love my new car!

Your car is so pretty. It will be an awesome companion on your trip. You look great too by the way. You need to start a name my car contest.

Very good suggestion!

The new car looks good on you. I imagine jebus isn't getting as much action on the new dash.

Jebus doesn't get his grove-on nearly as much anymore. I have to make sure to give him a bump every once in a while to keep him active. Don't want him to get rusty.
