Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

It's unfortunate that Narrator doesn't exist. I was trapped in Chicago and spent NYE in a hotel all by myself with room service and Saw III.

For the record... I offered to rescue you from the airport. (I couldn't provide room service or Saw III though)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

(I avoid driving. When I do drive, I drive a Toyota Scion xB, which is tall, but wee. And I never, ever, talk on the phone when driving. Except when my son calls me, and then I pull over ASAP.)

No rear storage space to speak of, either. Failed utterly at the jogging stroller test, I fear. It's tall, wee, and cute. Childless, I think I'd be a little in love.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Don't look at me. I wanted a Forester, but life conspired to give me an Odyssey. I actually drive a mommyvan.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yup. I'm a minivan driver.

But I have tons of musical gear in the back, not toddlers. Unless you count the Biscuit, who gets a bench seat to himself.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

raises hand

I have a bright blue Windstar. Her name is Violet.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I've always wanted to name my car. I have never been able to think of an appropriate name for her.

What is even happening?

It's a Mitsubishi Lancer, Tamara? Then clearly, her name is Mitzi (unless you just used 'her' by default. If it drives like a boy, clearly, he's Lance).

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I call all cars Betty. I don't know why. They just all say Betty to me.

What is even happening?

My one true car name is Bessie, but I so strongly associate it with my first car, it's always felt wrong using it on any of the subsequent ones.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My car is a sarcastic blue Cavalier named Sophie. I've named almost all my cars. They run better if they have a name.
