A few months back, I drove past a car lot and saw a very eye catching car. Marine Blue and chromed out. Oh, it was a flashy little vehicle, so I stopped to see it closer, which then lead to a test drive, which then lead to me asking Jerimy to come test drive it with me and man you should of seen his face when I showed him the vehicle.
My favorite color is blue, I'm attracted to it like a moth to a flame, and even though I wasn't necessarily in the market for a new car, I couldn't help but get a little excited about test driving it.
It was a five speed, just like I like, it was blue just like I liked, and as a Harley loving girl from way back, I can't resist chrome, no matter what it's on! *laughs*.....
Jerimy instantly started asking me if I was having a midlife crisis. I was like, "WHAT?!?! WHO ME?!?!?!" and he was like "YEAH YOU!!"
I'm only 35 aren't I too young to have a midlife crisis? I know girls mature faster than boys, but I don't think it applies to midlife crisis does it?
So anyway, we went for our test drive....it was fun, but after I brought it back to the lot, I was wavering on my wanting to buy a new car, especially after all the flack I was getting about having a midlife crisis....so long story short, I didn't end up buying it.
So the other day, I'm at Ray's Northland, picking up a salad from the Deli for lunch, when I see the car. THE CAR. Marine blue, the chrome once again shining in my direction, I could see the blue racy looking bucket seats, the 30 day tags from Tom Ahls, it was THE car, I was certain of it....and then I got to see who bought MY car...my midlife crisis car......
Ok, so this really isn't the guy, but the guy I saw, was just as old!
If that car was my mid-life crisis,
it was this guy's LATElife crisis!
I kinda want the car again now!
If he can have it, why can't I?
*winks*
[THIS ISN'T THE EXACT CAR, THE ONE I LOOKED AT HAD MORE CHROME, BUT THE OTHER FEATURES ARE ABOUT THE SAME]

He probably won't be around too long, so you could just wait and buy it at his estate sale.
ReplyDeleteGood Plan Anonymous! I may just have to do that! I'm going to keep my eyes on the "obits"...see who left behind a flashy PT! ;)
DeleteYou should have bought the car, screw what people say. Do what you enjoy. I get tired of people saying things like thought about my car. It is who i am.
ReplyDeletePer your midlife crisis checklist-
ReplyDeleteI stopped checking for white hair YEARS ago...I had them when I was in my early 20's!!
I have always wanted to bungee jump!
I'm not a guy but my ex-husband and I did own a harley and I'd love to have another one :)
I always have brushed and flossed diligently...I'm OCD about my teeth, but this is not new
I do spend lots of money on vitamins but that's because I have Multiple Sclerosis and also not new :)
I have 6 tattoos and definitely always am thinking about getting more!
I'm 43 years old and it sounds to me as if I've been in a mid life crisis since I was 20!! hahahhaa!!
Oh..You should have bought the car! Do what YOU want. What others think is over-rated ;)
