George

This is George. I named him in memory of one particularly odd afternoon in April, when one of my roommates and I needed some emotional release pretty badly, and went out to get cheesecake and then settled in for an afternoon of mindless laughter watching "George of the Jungle" on dvd.

George is my new ride. My first car ever. I purchased him this morning for a very good price.

He's rather a provision from God - price and timing. I'd been having a bit of a hard-time since our move with feeling quite housebound, as our new house isn't nearly as accessible to public transit as our old place.

George is a gift that came at just the right time. And he'll bring me the freedom to get the places I need to go, and sometimes, just to be out of the city and breathe a bit.

So tonight, my smile list has one very large silver item on it, named George.
