Is anyone else getting tired of this "winter" type weather ........??

mrs humfrz doesn't enjoy taking rides in our FR-S, unless the sun is shining. I don't taking it for a drive when the roads are wet.

So, I guess I'll go take a late afternoon nap ........ oh, I hope I can go to sleep without the toddler kicking me in the back .......


ZZZZZZZZZ

Yeah, it's kinda dragging on. First event of the season tomorrow, hopefully I can get home before it starts snowing. Will be wet and cold - especially with the wind! Was in the 70's on Thursday.

What a coincidence. I helped my fiance change the oil in her Subaru (Tribeca) today. It's so nice not having to jack up a car to get under it. Even nicer not having to get under it. Just directing lol.

My fiance is not a car person... Yet.

Interesting that both you and @Spuds have SOs that are interested in modding/working on cars .......

Is that a millennial thing..??

Not sure it’s a millennial thing, but it’s common for girls to be interested in guy’s hobby now

I hope the nap was refreshing.. Recently my employer moved offices, circa 2miles from my home. Too near to drive but just that little bit too far to walk (only because the main trunk road is too fast thus the sidewalk not too pedestrian friendly). Anyway, decided to only use my car when the weather is bad ie raining, snowing etc. Therefore my car is only getting used in rain... plus point, I like driving in the rain, find it soothing...

Nah, its not a millennial thing, its a sign of well balanced person. My wife encourages my interest in cars and I have an interest in her sporting activities. This is what makes a great relationship.

I think she's more interested in having the car in working order but not paying a ton of money (120k mile service time $$$), than cars as a hobby. For now at least lol. One can hope.

Is what a millennial thing? Women liking cars? Maybe more so than prior generations because there's less social pressure that discourages it? . My specialties are logic and reason, and mass human behavior defies both of those.

Yes, women liking cars.....

Of my wives, girlfriends, lovers, mistresses and female friends, I never knew one that was interested in cars (other than riding in them) ......

No, I take that back, there was one. She was a lady friend that lived a few houses down the street when I lived in San Jose.

One hot day, I was walking down our street, when I glanced into her garage and she was ducking in front of her car, which had the hood up. I thought she was having car trouble so I walked into her garage. She was "dressed" only a nightgown that had oil all over it. I said, Liz, are you OK..??

She said that her husband was out of town and she was changing the oil and filter on her car. She went on to explain that she was doing it when he was out of town because he didn't approve of her working on cars.

She went on to explain that she was wearing the nightgown because she could roll it up and stash it in the garage so her husband wouldn't see the oil all over it. I then ask her if she needed help, she said no, that her father had a automotive shop back where she was born and raised, and she learned automotive mechanics from him and that she just enjoyed it.


THE END

Yep, naps are like women ...... they are all good .....some are just better than others .......

I do agree that there is something soothing about the sound of raindrops falling on the roof of an FR-S .....
