I think dirt is partly holding our car together.
Or, hell, Space Invaders. Who doesn't love Space Invaders?
Sometimes I miss Pong. And Asteroids! I loved Asteroids.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
i noticed moss growing on my car yesterday, so perhaps i should spring for a drive through tomorrow.
Kaadys are your friend, erin.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
My dad used to make us wash the van every week in the summer. I was too young to remember what he did about that during the summer. I tend to let the rain take care of casual dirt.
I will say that no one should deprive themselves of the good time that is going through the car wash! So fun!!
Ooooh, there is one about 10 miles from here, that has the fun neon(ish) lights, so it is really cool to go through it in the dark. I know this only because Daniel had a coupon to use it, and we went through in one of his cars last year.

She'll be ok, but I do wish we'd had the foresight to tell her to burrow in in DC or here.
me too. My house is 10 minutes from her office, so it would have been easy for her to crash until to snow let up or the roads cleared.

Looking at the locations, not surprised i've not heard of them, not a single location on the east side. i think the shell station next to work has a touchless drivethrough.

I like to think of my dirty car as being part of my way of helping the environment.
My university is opening at noon, which I think is dumb. Just give us the day off - major streets are plowed and good, but side streets are locked up with this snow that is ice on the bottom and top. I dread the stuff the street plow has pushed over the end of our driveway. Also, it really screws up our finely tuned commute that involves a kid and a dog, each with their own daycare. Pfft. I may just take the afternoon off.
