I knew I liked you. The exhibit was an odd experience. Going in, I thought it was science-Leaving, I thought it was art. I took the middle child (Girl, 15 at the time) and she was absolutely engrossed. It was cool.

 

Yeah, I know. I'm fascintating!

 

Good Monday Morning NFRs!

I made it 2.5 hours at work so far and I think that is my limit! Going to be heading home to work from there. Don't have enough lungs yet to handle all those long walks from my office to the coffee pot and back!!!

Hope y'all had a great weekend!

 

Hey....we're supposed to be sliding over the plus side of the thermometer today..which means my MINI will start melting! HOORAY...LET'S BREAK OUT THE SUMMER SLURPEES! (they're much colder than the winter ones!)

 

I'm all for that! Went to work for 3 hours today and work from home for the rest. Going to ease back into the working life! I'm ready for a nice tall cold one! It was almost 80 today. Had the windows open, breeze blowing in. Heaven!!!

 

Take a look in my gallery for two pix of my 1 week old 2008 Nightfire Red Cabrio, "Randolph Wadsworth Cooper".

 

Looks georgeous!!! Lucky you!!!

 

She's a beaut..but why don't you have your top down yet?

 

Hey NFRs! What's happening? Nothing new out on the West side.

 

Funny thing up here. The weather warmed up...to +3 C (that's about 35 F) and the little snowflake dinged on....where was it when it was -40?

 

MINI likes to let you know when icy conditions may be present but you are on your own if they are already there!!! Thoughtful of them really.

BTW, 84F today with clear blue skies...

 

Just wait until full summer, when I can say it's 85 F and sunny, and you'll be baking under 110 F temps!

 

I know! Paybacks are a (the b word)!!

 

Banana....we're getting paid back in bananas?

 

If you want me to pay you back in bananas Dear, I will !

 

It's Thursday! I'm going to venture out tonight for the first time in a couple weeks! I'm going crazy staying home and resting. Throwing caution to the wind! Woo Hoo! I wonder if CARJOY will still start after sooo long.....

 

So..I won't be venturing out any time soon. Someone ran into the front of Bubbles...smashed in the front grill, driving lights, and punctured the radiator.....it's off to the insurance agent we go!!!!! Frig!

 

Oh No!!!!! Poor Bubbles. How did you survive? Doing okay?

 

+1. We need details, Dennis...

 

NOOOOO...I'M NOT OK....I have to drive a GM product! How would you feel?

So....the grille is pushed in, the driving lights snapped off, the front bumper is pushed in, when the grill was pushed in, it punctured the radiator, so there's antifreeze all over the ground. It had to be towed away, undrivable, and it's off to the insurance compound to be estimated.

From what Roo told us...I'm guessing that it's going to take at least a month to get parts and get fixed? SOB SOB.....Slurpees just aren't big enough today!

 

I would feel horrible!!! I'm sooo sorry. Wish I could speed up Bubbles recovery for you! Will she be well in time for your trip down south coming up? I hope it goes faster than Roo's repair job.

So how did this happen? From the damage it sounds like a head-on collision.

 

A little old lady backed into bubb's while trying to parallel park...ack...

 

Grrrr!- they should harvest her organs for transplant into people that can drive!

 

That is brutal!!! I like it!!!

 

Ok...it's a really good thing I save the old refridgerator box painted NFR. Now I'm zooming around the house pretending I have my MINI....I think they need to put windshield wipers on the inside from all the spit....making those engine noises makes it messy in here!
