That was the comment that my roommate said to me the other day. I thought to myself, “Yeah, I wouldn’t mind opening her up.” But then I realized he was just trying to trick me into driving him to work. I do miss driving, racing, and all that other car related stuff. I was hoping to be able to do a few more mods and do some autocrossing in the spring. The problem is I don’t want to abuse my car since I want to keep it for a long time and It’s still a daily driver.

I went back into looking at Mazda Miatas, but I don’t have the money or space to keep one. My dream is still to get a car like that so I can go racing. The weak, Dale Earnhardt movie on ESPN made me feel bad for not doing what I love to do. But in my defense, Dale Earnhardt was kind of a bastard. When I stopped watching he was on his third marriage already. There’s also that whole death thing. My life is worth more than winning any race. I’ll just try to remember fun times until I actually have the means for doing things.

I also miss the sound that my bike makes when I’m riding on the street at full speed. At least I can enjoy that in a few months. That also reminds me that I miss warm weather. Yesterday I thought I was going to lose my nose. Champaign gets very cold. I think I got too used to having a lake to keep temperatures somewhat moderate. That’s it. Later.
