Or, maybe it was just some mid life crisis type thing.
I was behind this new Dodge Challenger, and I started to wonder how it would drive, how the motor would sound, and how I'd look behind the wheel. Really, it wasn't that far removed from when I was 16 and eyeing a '68 Challenger.
Just like back then I thought it was a sweet looking car, the body lines so perfect.
And I would almost bet that Sue's objections to it today wouldn't be that far removed from the objections I heard back then. It's too pricey, the insurance would be outrageous, you don't need to be driving a car like that, how could you afford to keep gas in it, and on and on.
And my answers would be almost like they were back then... who cares?!?!? It's a great looking car! You're not ever going to have anything if you keep talking yourself out of it.
So who knows, come reunion time you might see me coming driving up in a big shiney.... family van. :)
