We have named the monstrous new car The Creature, or rather I have and will continue to call it that because it is big and green and faintly smelly we don't like it, just like the Creature From The Black Lagoon. Rainette named it. *points at her* It's fitted out for Onstar Capabilities, so once we have OnStar I will rename the console Tom Servo.
I took it out on errands today, down to the local Walgreens and back to get some envelopes and various other sundries. It is big, and we do not like it, precious. Also, Austin drivers are notoriously insane and will tailgate IN A SCHOOL ZONE, FUCKERS, so I slowed down to fifteen miles an hour, which I reckon cost Ms. HumVee behind me about seventy five cents in gasoline and possibly a couple grand in hospital bills for that high blood pressure.
Fortunately plans are firming up for Chicago, some tickets have been bought and websites visited and that amazing nuclear bomb of information you guys dropped on me has been collated into a big long document that I cannot go five minutes without consulting, so WELL DONE, READERS OF SAM.
I may have bought myself an ice cream for driving, but I claim it doesn't really count since it was a McDonald's ice cream, which is really just cold whipped plastic.
