I love this car!

[Rider90]

So I have the flu for two days, even had to be taken to the hospital to be pumped with saleine (sp?) and treated for dehydration, fun stuff. I felt miserable the first day, the second day I felt a little better, not so much though.

Although I found myself pacing the kitchen just to pass by the window outside that overlooks my car, shortly after that I found myself putting on street clothes despite my stomach and chest pains to go outside at -1 (F) to warm the car up. My justification was "I can't cruise around, I'm sick...but I think I need to go to the food store to find a healthy lunch..."

I let the car idle for about 10-15 minutes outside and I step out and get in the car. Seats are still freezing, we all know the seat heater doesn't do much good if there isn't a passenger holding it in on top. As I pull away I'm feeling the frozen flat spots on the tires plopping around, making noise and shaking the car, so I keep it slow. More like 15-20MPH on a 40MPH street (No one was behind me the whole time)

I get to the grocery store, look around for roughly 40 seconds, then without purchasing anything I could be seen heading outside and getting back into my car.

Longer story short: Chest pains, stomachs aches, and 1/4 tank later I pull back into the driveway.

Merry Christmas to all! Happy Holidays!

Also stay off the computer, you don't want to spread those germs! :P
