There have been a few car gatherings in town lately because, of course, it's summer.
Last weekend I had to avert my eyes from a few 'for sale' signs as there was a 1953 Chev calling my name -- love the trucks in particular.
That's my birth year and there's a big birthday coming up 
and I'm really having a hard time talking myself out of a big reward for making it this far...
This week (lord help me) it's Jags.
Chequebook stays home! But damn, it would look good on me.
(But they're a good investment, right? Right??)

You get what you put in, and people get what they deserve.
Hard as it may be, try to never give the OP any of your power or head space.

I'm tapping my foot waiting my turn after GabyBaby. Sorry no help here. That is gorgeous!!!!
I trust you is a better compliment than I love you, because you may not trust the person you love, but you can always love the person you trust. - UnknownRelationships are like sharing a book, it doesn't work if you're not on the same page.

You should call me after I start my new job on 8/12. The company I'll be working for restores and sells classic Corvettes and other performance cars, as well as later model used cars (Vettes, Jags, BMWs, etc.) 
You are important and you matter. Your feelings matter. Your voice matters. Your story matters. Your life matters. Always.

Sadly, I have no garage. Just a carport, and the racoons would probably move in immediately....
