rental cars (and ALCS game 4, the conclusion)
The last time I had a loaner on account of my car was in the shop, it was a Hyundai Elantra from Enterprise that I compared to having bad sex.
This time, it's a Chevy Cobalt from Budget, which is ... well, if we're going to continue the metaphor, I suppose it's like sleeping with someone much younger than yourself -- and it's fine, but you wonder what all the fuss is about, and you don't think everyone needs to be in a hurry all the time. In particular, this one is white (which is stupid) and has a rear spoiler (which is not only stupid, but also actually obstructs some of my rearview, so I can't always tell if there's safe space to change lanes). It's still an automatic, but at least it's got some kick. Heap big thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
esti626 for coming and getting me and ferrying me to the airport to get this rental car, which I'm going to have to name something like Lance.
Also, I left the TV on while I was out getting the car, so I could see the rest of the game on DVR -- and I'm glad I did, because even though I know how it ends, I'd have been sad to miss Asdrubal Cabrera's great catch in the top of the 7th. Damn!
