My New Ride

     I was fortunate enough for a while to get the use of the Corolla. A tiny little car perfect for me. And when I mean perfect, 89 is on the license plate. I've always joked that it's mine. But with sisters coming home from  A-school, C-school, and boot camp, my parents needed more cars for the family to get around. Leading to this:


     The Oldsmobile. A car that has been passed around the Abblitt family for years. It's an '88. And I can't tell you all the jokes and laughs I get when I'm driving it around. While the left turn signal doesn't work in the rear, and I'm pretty sure the gas gauge is off when you get around a 1/4 of a tank....I have to admit, it still can hold its own. (Although paying $63 to fill her up is not a plus)
     Britt has given this car a new name: the Beth-mobile. Which makes me think of the Batmobile. And Batman was always cool in my books....so laugh away everyone. Laugh away....
