Our Car

(Apr 9, 2016)

First, let me say that you are the prettiest girl that South Bend ever did produce and I am fortunate and blessed to have witnessed your amazingness these several years. Now, on to the post...

I bought this car in early 2014, just a few months before we met. You may recall that at the time, my user name on that website where we met was I Drive A Honda. I was unable to change that name but once I met you, that profile was happily deleted, so it didn't matter that I no longer drove a Honda. My intent when I bought the G35 was to have a car that was just for me. It wasn't bought due to a mid-life crisis or anything, it was just that I wanted a car that...wait, it probably was a mid-life crisis, but I'd do it all the same if I could.

As the universe would have it, I would meet you just months later and you and I would spend many hours driving all over southern California in that little silver rocket. We visited deserts, beaches mountains and cities during the five years that I owned that car and indeed other than me, no one had nearly the amount of miles and time in that car as you did. To me, it really did feel like our car.
