It is with heavy heart that I post this blog. My long time commuting companion is gone. The trusted friend to get me to and from work/school for the last 11 years is driving someone else to work today. I'm almost tearing up just writing about it. We froze through winter together and sweat through summer together for so long, and now, just like that, she's gone. :( No longer will she leave oil stains on my driveway. No longer will her window finally defrost only minutes from my destination. No longer will I have to drive home with all four windows down when it's 90 degrees outside. No longer will I have a car that I don't care how many door dings it has. I have parted ways with my 1991 Honda Civic and I'm kind of sad. Those of you who had the pleasure of riding shotgun in her know the bond we shared. We were like a well oiled machine (get it, "well oiled"). I just pulled the Craigslist add and signed the title away. I can only hope the new car in my driveway will live up to it's predecessor. Only time will tell. Goodbye little Civic. Goodbye.

Oh... that is the saddest for sale story I have ever heard. I remember "her". Hope all is SUPER SPECIAL for you all... by the looks of things, you are great!! Love!!
i'm all for fond farewells, but what about the new car????
That almost made me cry! I remember riding in her many a times, such good times! Hang in there your new Honda will do you well for years to come!
Good bye little car! I will miss basically hitting my head on your window because Uncle Dan takes turns so fast in you!!
I remember you flying down the driveway in it when you were dating Sid in High School.
