Hi all...

It started with the MINI slippers .... then the tank top .... then the scale model on my desk ....

Then I got the REAL THING.

It's used, but WHO CARES??? A 2005 MINI Cooper S convertible, black with racing stripes, chrome trim, heated leather seats, I don't know all the specs (I'm sure I'll care later once I meet people who teach me).

I'm hooked. Fished in. I giggle just looking at it. Fire the therapist. Cram the kids in the back seat and tell them to shut up if I take a corner faster than the speed limit says. And when the 15-year-old gets his permit, DON'T LET HIM TOUCH THE MINI.

Don't know what to name it yet, but I'm sure it will come to me.

Can't wait to meet you guys!

I'm in Herrin, Illinois which is between Carbondale and Marion -- a bit of a ways from Effingham, I'm afraid...

and, to the others who left messages, I used to live in Kirkwood, so I'm fairly familiar with your neck of the woods!
