Well for anyone that knows me and loves me, and to know me really is to love me lol, (just kidding), you know that my first car was a 1985 Fiero GT. Well I had to get rid of it for a bunch or reason and then moved on to more sensible cars. But like I said, if you know me, you know how I feel about that car. I really have/had a sentimental attachment to that car. Just to sit in it makes me feel 16 again and brings back so many great memories. I loved that car. (Did I say that already?) I had the time of my life in that car. I even had my Senior photos taken with my car. I’ve got a box full of pictures of me sitting in my car, washing my car, driving it in homecoming parades, etc. I loved it, I mean really loved it, and I am pretty sure I cried when it left. And again if you know me, you know I’m not a crier. Nor am I all that fond of washing a car, so you know that spells love.
So today Denny took me for a ride… a long ride… to Ohio! 230 miles one way. At that end of that 230 miles was a treasure. No, it wasn’t a large pot of scrapbooking goodies, it was a 1985 Fiero GT.
(The one pictured here.) I’m pretty sure I was beaming and I really had a hard time containing myself. I don’t get real wound up about anything, but this was really something special. I’m getting all teary eyed just thinking about it. So for my birthday Denny gave me this. I can’t put into words how much it means to me. I was driving my original Fiero when I started dating him.
How special is that? Anyway, I think this might be one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me. And it was certainly over the top.
Thank you Denny!
