it's blue, gosh darn it!

 once upon i drove a red mustang. 

her name was bertha.

bertha was old. really old.

i paid her off {$6450} by the time i was out of high school.

she was my baby. i loved her.

january 2008 i blew up her motor.

i never got my oil changed for a whole year.

i lived on my own.

i was in college.

had my cell phone bill. gas. food.

i was in college.

i partied in college.

i worked at cracker barrel.

i was in college.

i was broke.

i scarped pennies for beer.
i loved beer.
i was in college.

i could not afford a new car OR the payment.

i took out a loan.

every one told me "you're gonna get that fixed and everything else will break."

i took out a bigger loan.

i replaced everything in that car except the model itself.

she was a beauty.

i was 22 years old. 

i knew what i was doing.

so i thought.

i drove a silver mini van for 6 months.

i got my car back in the end of May 2008.

two weeks later.

CRASH!

my first wreck ever.

bertha = totalled

i cried. cried. and cried.

no way.

oh wait. the mini van.

i told them i needed the cheapest car.

they brought it all the way to my house.

it was bright blue.

we got a crazy amazing deal on her.

i wasn't in love.

i needed a car.

my point to this is....

if anyone tells me one.more.time

"oh you match your car."

JUST because i'm wearing a blue shirt....

never fails, every time i wear blue someone says it.

never fails.

my steam is down.

i feel better.
