Still alive....

Okay, so it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything. How irresponsible of me. I’d like to get back into this whole writing thing again, so let me start with the story of the last 365-ish days, imparted as a history of vehicles:

1992 Geo Metro Convertible: TOTALED!

Inattentive driver didn’t see the tiny car, turned left in front of me.

2002 Ford Focus: PURCHASED

Metro replacement. Not nearly as much character, but much more comfortable and reliable

1997 Volkswagen Jetta Diesel: PURCHASED

Never buy a car at night! At least it was cheap, and it now drives well after much work.

1991 Volkswagen Golf: SOLD

I kind of miss that rusty little box.

2002 Ford Focus: left with the ex-girlfriend

Goodbye, dear Focus.

1991 Honda CBR600F2: PURCHASED

Bought for a pittance - lucky buy! Needed minor revitalization.

1983 Honda Ascot: SOLD

To a nice young lady. I hope she enjoyed the summer on it.

1996 Subaru WRX STi: Tentatively sold to a friend, but then the deal fell through

It’s back in the stable, but I haven’t yet decided what I’m doing with it.

1991 Toyota MR2 Turbo: PURCHASED

It was cheap! I was waiting for a cheap Miata or MR2. MR2 won.

1987 Suzuki Samurai LWB: FOR SALE

I never drive it any more, and I clearly have too many vehicles.


OK! For those not paying attention, the final tally is one CBR600, one diesel VW, one MR2, one Subaru, and one Samurai (for now).

Phew. What a year.
