Patience is a Virtue

Got word that the apartment I applied for is a go and they are going to try and get it ready a few days earlier than planned. I am hoping to move out to LA July 4th or Independence Day weekend.

And after 6 days I just passed 500 miles on the car. The tires and brakes should be broken in by now but some of the other parts I still have another 500 miles to go. (At least that's what the manufacturer recommends) Despite the daily temptations, it has been extremely difficult to restrict myself from just putting the pedal to the metal and revving the engine above 3,500 RPM. Most of my driving has primarily been around 2,200 RPM. And she, scratch that, he's a beaut!

Does the Car fit the Man?

Well for this man, the car that I drove for the past 12 years, including some years in college, has been some sort of minivan. Keep in mind that they were fleet vehicles for the two companies I worked for, nonetheless they certainly did fit my closeted, suburban, straight personal brand.

Not anymore.

After 3 months on order, I now have my first new car that finally fits me. I picked it up today and I fuckin LOVE it! Granted it's just a car and I would much rather love someone with a heart and a breath, and to be honest I much prefer to walk than to drive, but I still LOVE it. (And yes I do believe it is the man that makes the car, and not the car that makes the man.)

And check out the coolest safety and security feature I had added. This will come in real handy as I drive by all of the HATERS out there, or as they approach to watch me making out in the front!



So you want to go for a ride?
