2018: This year better not suck as much as 2017.

Hello everyone. This post will act as my first official post on the new-ish blog. I say new-ish because after losing my Modwest hosting this is attempt number three of getting the blog back up and running after two failed free hosting options and about 30 hours of troubleshooting with my web server and we’re up and running like nothing ever happened! Hooray! I titled to post the way I did for two reasons:

  1. I really don’t feel like going to the hospital at all this year.
  2. Hopefully, my stupid car will no longer be an issue.

I really only care about item number one: the hospital situation. I swear to God if Benefis had a frequent flyers club I’d have earner 1,000,000 miles last year. Between my sinus infections, my back problems, and of course that pesky little heart problem, I was in the hospital pretty much once or twice a month, every month, for the whole year. It would be swell if my body could just not, y’know, try and kill itself this year. I’d really appreciate it. Not to mention so would both my bank account and my insurance company. I am pretty sure they are getting sick and tired of seeing so many claims come in for me. I am really surprised that they haven’t tried to raise my rates, which even if they did, wouldn’t affect me at all, but the company I work for instead since they cover 80% of our premium. Hell yeah!

Point number 2 is somewhat important only because my Subaru is a gigantic pain in the ass. Coolant leak. Terrible gas mileage. Hole in the bumper. Cracked windshield. Paint turning to shit. I am at my wit’s end. I don’t have the money to get it fixed, and I owe too much right now to trade it in. While driving home I am always hoping that a car will blow a stop sign and hit my car, but not hard enough to harm me. Just hard enough to total my car out so I can get something that doesn’t suck dick.

“What kind of car are you looking for, John?” you might be (but most likely are not) asking yourself. Well, loyal reader, that would a new Honda Civic Si. I would love to spring for a new Typer R, but alas the dealer markups are not going to allow that because Honda USA is too spineless to tell dealerships to fuck off and keep the car at MSRP like they do up in Canada. Maybe I’ll just go to Canada to get one then. That would be a big pain in the ass with the title and insurance, but maybe it might be worth the time and effort to save between $10,000 and $20,000.

Seriously, look how fucking rad these cars look.

Si (Mine would be a 4-door Sedan because of having a kid and what not, but this would definitely be the color I want)

Type R (Oh how I wish I made about $15,000 more dollars a year :()

Of course, I would really just like to import my dream car from Japan, but there are a few reasons why I can’t.

  • Too much money
  • Car isn’t legal for import
  • It’s only a coupe, which means no because kid(s)
  • The wife would murder me

Just so y’all can see what I would really like to have, I present to you the 2002 Mazda RX-7 Spirit R Type RA.

One day, I will have you.
