Inertia

Every weekend seems to be an attempt to top the previous one in sheer laziness. I am almost as motionless as, hmmm, something really still. See, I’m so lazy I won’t even finish that simile.

I’m so lazy that I spent some time with this website. I think it’s a bizarre bit of Burger King advertising, so they should be giving me a Whopper for this link.

It’s been a great sunny weekend, which is a great weekend for a convertible owner. Although, there’s a difference between last year when I first bought my convertible and this year. Then, in its eager newness, I had the roof down when it was even vaguely warm. Now, if it’s chilly forget about it, the roof is up. I thought of that while I was driving back from Maine and outlet shopping, where I went in order to drive with the top down. On the way back, I wanted to be toasty warm.

Man, one thing sad about the convertible, though. I bought it a couple of months after meeting M. So, driving around, blasting music and basically living the open-road American cliche is kind of inextricably linked with our relationship. Not to mention that with our respective heads of long hair and it being a VW Beetle and all, we were the image of beautiful, happy hippie-ish stereotypes. Now that convertible season has returned, it’s not the same with him 3,000 miles away.

Guess I’ll have to buy an SUV and look miserable like everyone else.

Talk with me. Please.
