ok, so i have lived here all my life (minus the few years i lived in surrounding areas, which you might learn more about later). when i was growing up, i couldn't wait to start driving. at 17, when i bought my first car, i just about died and went to heaven! until recently, i thought having a car was a total necessity, an absolute must. maybe this was due to the trauma i endured from taking muni everywhere in my teen years. but honestly, i live in a prime location and work downtown. last night i had to ask myself "are the parking costs, insurance rates and registration fees really worth the driving i do only on the weekends?" and the answer i came up with was NO! so this morning i signed my car over and for the first time in nearly 10 years, i don't own a car! but as a memorial to the car that has served me well for the past few years, here is one last pic...
good for you!
