Falling in Love All Over Again

DISCLAIMER: Worthless story within the following post. Reader beware!

This week my parents came down from Nashville to check out me and my girlfriend's new townhouse. I decided I'd let my dad drive my G37 around for the day while I took the SUV to class, grocery store etc.

Sitting at a redlight on my way home, I look over at one of the side streets and see a gorgeous sparkling white car obviously fresh off the wash/wax. It's really catching my eye, the driver then proceeds to rev the engine, gun it from the light, chirpping tires etc. I checked in my rear view and that's when I noticed...NISSAN SKYLINE badged on the back. Totally caught my dad tearing up the streets of Baton Rouge in my car!!! Anyway, the moral of the story is, after 9000 miles...seeing my G on the road doing it's thing, I've definitely fallen in love all over again!

I'll speak for Nguyen on this one. Louisiana is probably the number one place where cars get dirty/messed up. Pot holes, bad drivers, rain, pollen, birds...everywhere birds, flooding, wind, downed trees, bi-polar weather conditions. Nothing here is maintained at all thanks to government corruption...this is a very poor state, and roads aren't at the top of the "To Do" list. Thus, it can be hard to take a nice car out a lot of the time, much safer in the garage.

Seldom do we see a nice 65 degree, low wind, little traffic, day to take our cars out. Either that or he's been working non-stop, which is also a possibility with him haha

LOL,
whenever I clean my car, I let my brother drive it out and around the block to shake off excess water and dry the tires. The whole time, I'll be watching my car in action and say to myself, "Damn, that's one sexy beast!!"

*true story LOL!
