Surviving My Life

Taking Care Of My Baby

There she is. Right there on the left. My baby. The most expensive thing I've ever bought, looking all shiny and clean.

I took that picture yesterday due to the fact that as October marches on, the weather is beginning to shift more and more in the favor of winter, and soon snow will fall again.

And my car will turn into a salt magnet.

When she's clean, my car looks amazing. The only problem? Black shows everything. Especially salt. So from the months of December until April, my car looks like an off-roading deralict.

It also doesn't have the ground clearance that my previous vehicle had, and seeing as how the Utica DPW believes that waiting until the snow melts is a good way to clear the roads, driving in inclimate weather isn't always a good idea. If the snow gets deep enough in the road, my car turns into a toboggan. Not necessarily a good thing.

Well, in any case, I took that picture as much as for me, as for you guys.

So shiny...
