The New Car with the Tapedeck

I’ve got very little I feel like writing about as I’m properly buzzed (thanks to 1.5 bottles of wine Larry & I shared with a spaghetti & meatballs dinner) and possibly sleepy?  Okay, not possibly, definitely.  But I’m doing laundry still so I can’t pass out just yet.  Thank God there’s no having to go down to the river and beat your laundry against the rocks.  We have a pretty sweet front-loading washer and dryer setup here (oh, BTW, we’re here at the place for another year!  No moving for us, for now!).  What am I talking about?

Anyway, Larry thinks I should write about my ridiculous dream I had in the last moments of sleep before having to get up this morning.  So, yeah, I had pressed snooze the last time and drifted off to dreamland – and dreamed that Larry had come back with a brand new Prius.  He opened up the trunk first (I don’t know why, it’s a dream) and it was luxurious and glorious.  But then I looked through the passenger area to the front console area and my jaw dropped – I had just seen that the main center console was just a sheet of black plastic with no informational display or A/C controls or anything…EXCEPT there was a fuckin’ tape deck.  I turned to Larry in probable disgust and was like, “Are you kidding me????”  Then the alarm rang its final bell and thank GOD it was a nightmare.  What a terrible thing to think about.

In other car news, one of my friends at work (Paras) was chatting with me about the fact that his girlfriend (Carey) is going to test drive a Mazda 3 5-door this weekend as she’s in the market for a new car.  I definitely raved all about it.  It’s weird how infrequently I see others of my particular model around town.  Although I actually did see a graphite-colored one this afternoon while driving home – I still feel special.  🙂  Carey wants a white one of my car – I approve of that as I called dibs on red.  I did!
