The End of an Era

(Eric recently informed me that you’re not supposed to assign a gendered pronoun to an inanimate object.  I’m going to violate the new laws of our strange language.  …just so you know.)

I’m selling her.  She had a good run, but the time has come to send her off to live elsewhere.  My old Explorer went up for sale today.  She’s all clean, and she’s parked for all of the people in my hometown to see.  For about 3 years, she’s been with me every day to work, and to a countless number of concerts around the Southeast.

I picked up a 1998 Toyota from a friend of my grandpa.  It’s a little newer, has fewer miles, and has the little things (like air conditioning) that make life a little easier.  I should be able to save some gas money when driving to those concerts.  …and I won’t have to sweat bullets the whole time, either.  Maybe my grammatically-inclined songwriter friend will play a show nearby soon so that I can get her properly inducted into the family.
