Now before you shriek with jealously, let me expound on the excitement even further. The installation took 45 minutes and I ate Sonic while I waited. Not just any Sonic meal. I got a delightful cherry limeade drink. Don't even get me started on the tater-tots.
So $87 million dollars later my car is driving around with new shoes. And you know what? It can drive faster now.
Remember when you were a kid and a new pair of shoes increased your running speed by at least 31.5%? That's how my car is. It just wants to drive places so it can go fast.
Plus, like a kid with new shoes, it feels more attractive. Despite the inch of dirt surrounding the entire exterior, I caught my car looking at itself in the reflection of the car in front of us. I am hoping this increased self esteem will have a positive impact on my gas mileage.
Manda's thinking of getting new tires now too. Only she has to one-up me and get the kind of new tires that come with a new car. It turns out, we're pretty competitive.
Anyways. Now that you all know my car has new tires, I feel significantly closer to you. Maybe I'll invite you over sometime and we can sit and stare at my tires. Please, don't every one volunteer to hang out with me at once.
Peace Out.

This plus the post just after (or is it before) this one really makes me feel like we've bonded. I appreciate you acknowledging this. Maybe your really fast driving car with new shoes, or Manda's new car with shoes should decide to take a trip up the Oregon coast. I know of a couple of people in need of lung transplants. I hope you don't mind that I recommended you. You are the best, you know.
Isn't it the best feeling getting new 'shoes'!! Kris and I got new 'shoes' from south Phoenix. Cheap, yes, but they are the same 'shoes' that came with the vehicle when we bought it! Score!! Less than $150 for 4 Goodyear Integrity 'shoes'!! Score!
