Years ago, I used to see Jettas on the road and want one so bad. I would notice them everywhere. And then I bought one. It still took me a while to stop noticing them on the road. I caught myself wishing I had one, before I realized I was driving one. It made me laugh. When I was a kid it always seemed like if I got what I always wanted, it wasn't what I wanted once I had it, or it wasn't what I imagined. Or I never got what I wanted and grew out of the desire to have whatever the object is. I think that is human nature. But back to the Jetta....I loved that Jetta. It smelled of crayons. I had it through college and used it in my first job coldcalling. Then minor little things started to make me worry that it would break down and I couldn't afford that, so I traded it in for a new Jetta. I missed the smell of crayons, but I really loved the new Jetta too. Just love that car.
And now I have a fabulous new job and they gave me a car. How cool is that?! But I miss my Jetta. Just the other day I caught myself noticing a Jetta on the road and wishing I had one. I am right back to where I started...

Um, yeah, your a dork. You still have a Jetta. You just never drive it. So, like I said, your a dork. Don't worry though, I still love you.
really? really? is that complaining I hear? That you have to drive a company car? If you start on how you hate your expense account.....
