That sucks dude, but at least it was your civic and not the BRZ!

So today, my first full day back home, I saw my car for the first time in 2013! I had to use our tractor to plow a path to the barn where she's been stored, then plow out the huge snow drift in front of the barn door. But, it was all worth it to see my baby

Moving her to the house tomorrow to do some work and wait for the roads to improve.

When I'm at school I spend a lot of time looking at modifications and such but when I get back home I look at my car and I'm basically satisfied. I've decided to do power before looks. Plus I'm pretty sure my car couldn't make it down our gravel road if it was lowered or had a lip kit

Whatever, I guess she's gonna be my rallyota lol

I enjoy my Mont Blanc frames as well, but they're on the heavier side and aren't as comfortable as my Ferraris. However, the lenses are bigger (width and height) which I appreciate.

I'll keep in mind on the Mont Blanc frames. I do want to purchase frames that are wider or bigger when I feel like using my glasses for driving.

BTW I have a friend who has Ferrari cologne. I wonder if that's douchey?

I'd like lasik surgery on my eyes someday because I can't stand contact lenses. Since glasses are cheaper I'll stick with that and I just never really cared before or know what's considered good frames.
So getting 2 or 3 glasses leaves me options to mix it my appearance too.

Edit, they're just broke and need money...I mean touring again.

But, but, but... I thought Trent just needed to find himself?

Seriously I'm just glad they coming back and I'll try to go see them when pass through my area.

Dammit I wish I knew this earlier when I was at work. We would have had a lot of fun with this.

Could have something to do with it being his song.

Johnny Cash's version was kind of a defeated sad feel.

Trent's was kind of an angry frustrated sad feel.

The one I prefer depends on my mood, both are pretty awesome.
