Well, when Greg was here for a visit, we made a deal. I had to sub at the high school and he and Steve wanted to ride motorcycles. Since Greg did not have a motorcylce here, I told him that he could ride mine if I could take his car. I fully expected him to laugh in my face, but surprisingly he said yes. After I got over the initial shock, I grabbed the keys and ran. I got off to a bit of a slow start since I wasn't used to the car and its clutch. I did enjoy having the top down and the looks I got from the kids at the school when I pulled up though. About 11, I had a class off and I decided to take the delicious Spyder for one last spin. (Get it. Spyder - spin) That was when I knew how Ferris Bueller felt in the movie. I felt a little naughty because school was still in session even though I had every right to be gone. Plus, even though I was in such a cool car, I still looked like as much of a dork as Ferris did because I couldn't wipe the big, dumb grin off my face at every stop light. I zipped by the Forest library to show off and got some coffee at Cups and then after checking in with the guys who were in town on the bikes, it was time to go back to work. I loved my 50 minutes of seeing how the other half lives. Once I was used to the car, it was a very fun drive. I plead the fifth on how much fun though. I didn't even have to have a Cameron to weigh me down. (Spencer was still in school.) So I have to thank Greg for giving me a taste of the finer things. I hope he had as much fun on my Harley as I did in his car.

Seems like a good trade to me - Don't you have an anniversary coming up? Ask Steve for a Spyder and when he says no then something else you may have been wanting won't seem so extravagant!
