i need new struts. and i'm rich.

the above statements are FALSE FALSE FALSE.

i no longer need new struts (or a head gasket, timing belt, new alignment, etc) because i'm driving with blue tooth baby. my poor old car needed six thousand dollars in repairs (WHAAAAAAAT?) so i said goodbye. we broke up. parted ways, if you will. it was a sad moment as i thought of the good memories... first in santa barbara, all the road trips, boys kissed, letting anna sneak it off to coffee, way too many tickets, hitting a hundred k, late night conversations, the first clove smoked inside (two weeks ago), radio moments with npr, driving in snow, all of it. dear God i would have married those heat seaters.... and so i said goodbye. to a luxury car without a luxury paycheck.

never doing that again.

ps. happy twentyfifth to the hottest citizen of seattle that's staying past august: kp.
