Yippeeeee!!!
I finally went down to get the mail (geez, side effects are a bitch!) and when
I opened the box, the feeling came back into my legs 'cause ther was the new
issue of Spitfire>6!!!
I feel like such a slacker-seems like everyone on the list has contributed but
moi! Good work, everyone!!!
I especially enjoyed the "Spitfire is (NOT) Human" test.
ahem...
1-of course! Even little baby names and diminuitives and things I coo when he's
been a good boy...Nigel, the Nige-ster, Nige-meister, mummy's baby boy,
mummie's boo-boy...I think you get the idea.
2-Of course! Even when it's 100o! Once-maybe twice a week a mini-clean.
3-Headaches, nausea, dizzyness-and even VOMITTED once!
4-Constantly!
5-Right through my entire body!
6-"Groaned", yelled, went "OWWWWWCH!" In an open car. In a neighbourhood where
they call me la gringa loco or some such.
7-Patted. Kissed (usually cooing sweet nothings), caressed and hugged. The main
reason they think I'm crazy. I think.
8-No. I don't carry a picture. I usually just park where people can see it. But
I have sent a picture to the Spitfire Magazine. And many websites around the
world!
9-If I have to. Funny thing is, my friends and family now do most of the
bragging for me! My best friend/ex-boy friend -who *hated* the car and was
emphatically opposed to my getting it-told just about everyone we spoke to at
the auto show all about Nigel! I just smiled and nodded.
10-Yes! The first thing I did when I got it was change my will. Nigel is going
back to his "daddy" Dave when I die. Dave is thrilled and says that he'd never
sell Nigel again because he would be an heirloom then. (I think that the idea
that Nigel will come back to him is impetus to keeping him running well.)
Is my club card in the mail?
