say ello to Me'me
Well I got it, the old Mini Cooper. Its a 2002 Mini Cooper with 1800 miles on it. It's all black with 16" five star wheel design wheels, rear spoiler, very nice red and back interior, heated seats, fog lamps, cd etc, and it has the sport package so its got this dynamic stability control and a bit stiffer suspension. It drives like a dream but it doesnt quite keep up with my brothers 4.2L Audi A6. Heh.. as expected no doubt. The S is growin on me, someday. :)
Me'me as mom calls it is a joy to drive. Joy, dream, awesome, its all the same, its a lot of fun. I get alot of attention driving it. Other mini's pass me by and we all wave to each other like were family. Tuners, tricked out Civics with bad ass kids pull up next to me and rev thier nos enabled engines.. and I just laugh back at them. Kinda funny, its like i'm all fast and furious now.. but im not. Now the S would be more in that league but the cooper itself is just fun ya know. Perhaps its the "i wanna have fun" look the cooper has. I cant think of many cars that have that look. Least that look that appeals to me. Kids in thier modded cars roar past me, gun the gas when i cross them in an intersection, suvs ride on my ass as if to crush me. Meanwhile Me'me glides around town like a go-kart.
Last weeks trip to Cumberland was an excellent place to drive Me'me around. Sooo many twisty turny roads. It was mucho es fun! I love how this car corners. It just glues to the road and doesnt let go. Now that I'm back I need to plan a few day trips to amish town, pick up some cheese and just drive.
We Rockwell's had a big family reunion last night, very festive, good fun. Tried to go swimming in the local hood pool there but no can do, all stormy last night. Bummer. The lifeguards were a trip and broke out a deck of cards. We passed on poker and instead learned how to play "asshole". Course when mother asked "honey what card game are you playing" i had to quickly rename it to..."bad guy".. heh.
Everyone wants dan tunes. I created 5 new dan cds of tunes to drive the mini cooper too and they've all been gobbled up by the family. I should of been a DJ or something. Other than that not much new. I wash and detail Me'me about every chance I get. Back to work this week.. gonna try and see some movies too.
