Howdy y'all! This is a blog post. Today I finally got insurance coverage on my new free Volvo and it wasn't that bad! Only $275 / 6 months. I also switched the Porsche to storage coverage for $88 a 6 months vs the $575 I pay otherwise.
Anyways, next Thursday I've arranged a ride to Detroit to pick it up and bring this pinnacle of 90s design home.
I also got back from Kentucky, where I unfortunately found out my teeth are too fricked up for the University of Kentucky student dentists to fix and I'm going to have to go through their residency program. That means it's going to cost a lot more than I'd planned and take much longer.
While I was there I had the worst steak or my life:
It was all fat and rubbery!
I also drove through a tiny tunnel!
And visited the coomer homeland!
Then I took some pics of my car!
Then after that I drove home and remembered my car can kinda drive itself so I could keep browsing rDrama.
Since I've been back I've been selling things I don't need anymore to buy car parts and have managed to raise $2800 with minimal effort. Now that I've sold all of the easy stuff, I've moved on to trying to sell things from my art collection, like this photo of a potty!
Thanks for reading! I'm horribly depressed today!

What did you feed the coons?

They go through around four 50lb bags of store-brand dog food each week. I've had to cut back on feeding all of the wild ones, so I'm down to two bags a week these days and only feed my own and favorites.

They do, but I always end up with a fresh set of orphans to raise each year. Even after releasing them they still stay close and come back for meals.

I feel like modern cars are getting worse and worse. It sucks if you're someone who prefers physical dials and buttons over touch screens and a car that doesn't send data back to the manufacturer all the time. That's not even getting into locked features/"upgrades" and shit like that.

I can explain you why at least for German cars. 90% of the design strags that end up working for globoauto come from the sme terrible shithole university, the HS Pforzheim. We already reject 95% of these people and looking at the new X2 we somehow keep riding the downward spiral.

I'm getting rid of the BMW because I realized I don't enjoy it enough for the amount it costs me per month.
I sold another BMW earlier this year and have one additional one I need to get rid of. Then I'll be down to just the Volvo and Porsche so my life should be a lot simpler automotively.

Where was that steak from? There are tons of good restaurants in Lexington, but that looks awful.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
This place called Loma's or something in Winchester. I complained to the waitress and she agreed it was bad but then didn't do anything about it. I wasn't allowed to complain any further since I guess my sister has a business/political relationship with the owners and didn't want any drama.
Their “hand breaded” $12 mozzarella sticks are just frozen food service grade too.
My parents used to really like the place but this steak basically ended any chance of ever going back.

The Opera House used to have a really nice restaurant in the 90s, and I would put Robert's Cafe that was in the Brown-Proctor building across Main Street around the same time up against pretty much any restaurant anywhere. Dude was doing hyperlocal cuisine all by himself back before that was even a thing.
But yeah, if you want a good steak, Malone's, Jeff Ruby's, and Tony's are where it's at.

I had a really good pizza at the old firehouse. Will definitely check out those other places as I'll be spending more time down there. Our house is the one on Main Street with all of the over the top Halloween bullshit.

Engine House Deli also was an iconic place in my childhood, but it's gone through like 3 owners since then. Haven't actually lived in Winchester in 20 years.
I grew up literally blocks away from you all. Went to St Agatha, then to a private school in Lexington since St Agatha only went up to 5th grade.

Replaced my bald snow tires for the season, Michelin X-Ice Snow. So far in the dry around 50F I don't love them, they don't hook like my old Blizzak LM32s but I'm eager to see how they do in snow. The Blizzaks were all around great but once the layer of special compound wears away they're basically all seasons. Michelins promise more consistent snow performance. On paper they should be better but we'll see.

That's ok. My other tires are not to be used in temps below 50F, the compound gets too hard and will get damaged aside from severely diminished grip. Snow tires are a special compound that stays soft in frezzing temps. If no snow we'll certainly get some bitter cold.

The Volvo? I like it more too. Having 400hp in the BMW is fun but it's not fun in turns like the Porsche, and it makes 110mph feel like 70mph, which gets me in trouble.

It's a very impressive car but in order to have fun with it you've gotta either hit reckless speeds or shred expensive tires. The 911 is more fun at legal speeds and you don't have to lose grip to have fun.
Which is why I don't feel too bad replacing it with a 24 year old Volvo.
