My Car is trying to kill me

Welcome back faithful readers, I am sorry that I have neglected you and left you all hanging for soooooo long about what is happening in my life, well I must say that it is something quite devastating…

I think that my car is trying to kill me. I am aware that I sound quite irrational and that many of you are probably reading this thinking “oh great, she’s lost the plot again, your car is trying to kill you…sure!” But its true, well it’s either that or I am gain superpowers; I guess that could also be an option…

Anyway, how could a non–living object like my car is trying to kill me? I mean it can’t crash itself, it can’t eat me, it can’t really do anything…Well, that’s where you are wrong. It is trying to kill me, and it’s closer and closer every time…seriously.

Every time I get out of my car at the moment, I get an electric shock, and each time it gets worse, I used to think that it was my volleys but its not, I get it even when I am not wearing them, but its not just a little tickle electric shock, its like a massive…

ZAP!

Yer just like that! But it’s getting to the stage where I am scared to close my door because I know that the shock is waiting for me. I am scared, really scared.

But here is what I really don’t understand, why would my car want to hurt me??? I know I crashed it once, but now its all better, and besides it was a bit like “house” on Wednesday night cause the crash fixed another problem, so now my car goes into drive first time with out fail, so why would it want to hurt me…Dave just washed it, I am now using that unleaded 95 from shell just to treat my car, I use it everyday, why would my car want to hurt me? If you have any idea please tell, I am lost for a reason! The only reason I have a the moment is maybe its not the car…maybe its me, maybe I am getting superpowers, and soon I will be able to control the electricity and use it to fight crime in the cities…maybe you should all just refer to me as electrogirl

I love my car and I don’t think that I could live if our relationship went up the creek, I need him to love me again…

Just a thought I had.

Stay tuned.

Craig Lowndes 888

There are somethings that I thought I would never do or be, things that are just not "me". Things that I have no desire to do or even watch someone else do. For example I am never going to be a marine sea diver, i just don't want to, I am never going to be a model, I am just not made for it, I am never going to be a painter/builder/bricky in fact I am never going to be a tradie of any kind, its just not me. I am never going to play golf, its the principle of the thing! I am never going to enjoy watching shot 'em up movies, I just don't get them.

But this weekend I have learnt that sometimes you actually like these things that you promise yourself you will never enjoy.

Most of you probably know, actually I take that back, you probably don't know...This weekend was Bathurst weekend. The weekend of the all V8 racing weekends. Why do I know this? Well Dave is a Ford man, through and through and in order to understand him more I have been learning all these useless little facts about Fords and Ford drivers, anyway he was really excited about Bathurst this weekend so I thought I would learn a few more facts...This is what I got...

Craig Lowndes, 888 (said triple 8, not 8 8 8 apparently), partner Jamie Wincup, starting in position 6, drives for Beta electrical in a BA ford falcon. 161 laps, 1000km.

I know I am amazing! And at first i just started realing these little facts when promted to make dave happy, but then we watched the race, something I promised myself I WOULD NEVER DO, just because I am a girl and girls aren't supposed to like car racing! But heres what the werid bit was, I actually enjoyed it, I think that there is definatly a little petrol head in me! I don't whether it was because Craig Lowndes won for the first time in 10years, or whether it was because it was Ford first Bathurst victory in 7years or because it was just a really werid race? I don't know, but I liked it and I got excited when it got close and was really happy when Craig won.

I made me think, if I can enjoy and even like V8 car racing, maybe I can enjoy a lot of things, i just have to give it a go. I am actually hanging out to see another one, but don't tell davo! Maybe I could be a female Craig lowndes or aren't girls allowed to play like in footy?

Just a thought I had.

Stay tuned.

...Go Ford!
