Don't worry, driving with us is safe.

So Boo and I are officially the coolest people in the whole world. If you haven't been out to visit for a while then you probably haven't seen our "new" car. Yes its just a couple of steps up from good ol' Rusty, the Ford truck that I drove for five months before moving east. Even a little newer. But our 1990 Honda Accord aint nothing to shake no sticks at. It cost us less than a new TV and works fine. For a few bucks more we scored a fix it yourself book on Amazon. The first project was the air conditioning, which I mentioned a while back. Now tonight we got to tackle the bumper. It came to us mangled so we just had to make sure it didn't fall off. However some unkind person who will have their day in you know where, backed into or clipped or whatever to add a few more scratches, a new crack and made it so the bumper would come off in a strong wind. How it managed to stay on while driving on the freeway is a mystery to us. Any how, Boo and I managed to re-secure the bumper, figured out how to take the turn signal lamp off, and figured out that the light was in fact not broken, just burned out. How smart are we? And we are even still friends! So needless to say with some wire and a few odds and ends screws that I found the bumper should be just fine for the time being and we'll even fix the light. So come and visit anytime and if you're lucky we might even give you a ride in our "new" car.

Joe and I would NOT have been friends after that. We're just not that great at working together... =)
