TGIF

I am very happy today. For one it's Friday, which is always a good thing. And it's actually a weekend again as I went back to work this week. So I have a week behind me now. But what's even better is I just got my mini back. I dropped it off two weeks ago to get the roof fixed after my unfortunate bikerack/garage incident. Today it was finally done and I was able to pick it up. Yeah!
In the meantime I've been driving a rental, a Pontiac Vibe. I had no idea what this was when I was at the rental center picking up the car. I just said give me the smallest and cheapest car you have. The Vibe was it. For those that don't know what a Vibe is, it's not small, not even close. It's kinda like a little SUV. So compared to other SUV's, then yeah, it's small. Compared to a Mini, it's huge! Let's just say my road bike fit in the back completely intact.
So I've been driving the Vibe. It felt like a big boat, but as the days went on I got used to it. I even started to think maybe it wasn't all too bad. Then I picked my car up. I got in and oh, it felt so nice to be back on leather seats. Then I adjusted everything and I felt oddly high. Not cause my seat was out of adjustment, it was just cause I could see again. I was basically a driving head in the Vibe. I couldn't see crap. Then I pulled out onto the highway and hit the gas hard, cause the Vibe required that just to move. I took off like a shot. Yes! A big smile came across my face. I love my car. I'm so happy it's back. Oh, and the shop did an awesome job. It looks just like knew. You'd never know. Beautiful.
So today is a good day.
