What's going on? Its been kind of quiet and dead around here for the last few weeks. How am I supposed to amuse myself when no one else is interested in amusing me?
Admittedly I have nothing amusing going on right now myself......But it can't be this dead around here! Really!

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing April. My life has been so boring that there's nothing to report, except that today I went to a car show in my small town. There were about 300 cars, most from the 50's and 60's but some older and of course there were the hot rods. There were a few European cars, one Citroen, 3 Minis, a 1963 Jague=ar Mk II sedan--i love that car, abd my favorite, a 1972 Alfa Romeo GTV. I'd love to have one of those.

Last year it was shorts and a hawaiin shirt but this year it was pouring down rain so it was jeans, rugby shirt, jacket and hat. The rain and cold thinned out the crowd. Last year there were about 10,000 people there. This year I doubt there was a tenth of that.

Oh, and I saw my first 2005 Mustang. Windveil blue GT from the local dealer. It was the only car in the show that wasn't waxed and it seemed strange not to see the water bead off the hood like it did on every other car there. And they only had a $4k markop on it! Right.

Well, that's how I spent a rainy Saturday morning. I still feel chilled.

I wasn't here. Besides, you are not as loud as you use to be.
No, I did not mean your car. We know IT IS loud.

Ahh yea, I keep forgetting a calmer quieter(and apparently more boring) me.

Too bad life has settled into a nice predictable same ole- no drama pattern.

Just opening some dialogue, April. Harmless jabs. My apologies if misunderstood.
No malice behind the comments or offense meant.

You know me better than that

Oh, and I have driven her 7,300+ miles and yes, he has driven her twice on our Road trip. He hated it.

But seriously...
no one has anything amusing to chat about anymore. Its like being at a funeral or very formal wedding in here lately....

And a shame too, it used to be a laugh a second.

Maybe we're just in a slow spell.

Or everyone is out driving their cars during these nice spring days.

Or aliens for the planet Zxcwa have come in and used their mind-control beams to erase the lower hypothalamus synapic functions putting everyone in to hibernation mode so that they can transport in and steal the worlds supply of salsa!
