Carless

Yesterday, after a week of false hopes and visits to used car dealers, I sold my car.

I really liked my car, but it wasn't hard letting go after 5 years. Maybe because I knew that its maintenance was crap. A couple weeks ago, S helped me clean up under the hood: it looked like no one had popped the hood in 3 years. Which was more or less the case. After a good scrubbing, the car looked well cared for.

The nice couple who bought it were the perfect buyers. For me. They didn't ask about its maintenance, so I didn't have to lie.

So now I'm carless. I do have my parents' chunky Accord, but it's just not the same.
