Making Up With My Car

I drove my car the first time in over a week and we talked about how the car let me down in my moment of depression.

 

 
Before dawn I snuck out to the car
and sat in the driver’s seat with glee
backed out and put the car in drive
and then the car started speaking to me.
 
It apologized for its rudeness
when it knew I was feeling depressed
and suggested we had some issues
which really had to be addressed.
 
I could tell my dear car felt some guilt
at the cold fender it gave to me
and sense I’m a forgiving fellow
I took steps to make it guilt free.
 
Then the radio began to play
sweet music which comforted me well
then my turn signal was on too long
and I had to listen to a bell.
 
When I drove the car back in drive
and thanked my car and got out the door
and we agreed we’d never argue
since now we had settled the score.

Just sold my old Mustang convertible. I had put only 13,000 miles on her in 9 years. Sometimes she just sat there week after week and she had begun getting pretty sassy too.

I know THE feeling about the car letting you down. Thankfully, my most recent encounter with the mechanic was one that left me in 'stitches.' They couldn't figure out what was wrong, so they took a hammer to the part that was giving me trouble (my head and tail lights), gave it a couple of whacks and now it is working just fine. Go figure.

Oh you are one of THOSE people, who ride down the road with their turn signals on, huh...? ;-)e
