Hey, look! I'm for sale! http://bit.ly/3pDBrM

.@gfitzp WHAT?!?

[oloba @oloba]

Yay runflats! http://yfrog.com/5aa38pj

Also, this morning I saw a MINI just like me, but minus the rear fog lights. Almost a doppelgänger! Nice to see the other driver wave back.

[oloba @oloba]

Checked my 2009 average MPG on MyMileMarker.com: 32.2 MPG. Distance I drive @gfitzp to work? Also almost 32.2 miles exactly. Weird!

[oloba @oloba]

If I traveled that distance in 1 hour instead of 1 year, I would have escaped Earth's gravity - http://bit.ly/aOZrJ

Today I've been on the road for 1 full year! Passed 26,000 miles today too; that's about 71 miles/day, every day.

Saw a Subaru this morning on I-97 on my way to work: EU license plate, GB sticker, right-hand drive vehicle. You don't see that every day!

Bird on my bonnet - http://flic.kr/p/6qmjVL

VROOM! *runs over @spelchec*

[oloba @oloba]

Been on the road less than 9 months and already passed 20k miles!

[oloba @oloba]

Hm. Bird poop is mostly gone but some traces still remain. Guess I'll have to visit the hand-wash car boutique soon...

[oloba @oloba]

Car wash time! :) Looks like a bird visited Taco Bell, and then decided to relieve itself all over my bonnet. :( a quick clean will be good.

[oloba @oloba]

@gfitzp should be glad I'm nice: he left his jacket (and keys) in my boot and closed the hatch. I noticed his mistake and unlocked for him!

[oloba @oloba]

Guess this means no more tigers are going to be getting into my tank. :( That won't stop my engine from purring, though!

[oloba @oloba]

Sounds like I gotta stick to Shell V-Power from now on: the service writer tells me it'll never be higher than 10% ethanol there.

[oloba @oloba]

Apparently I was registering some minor faults for high ethanol content?? Apparently Exxon changed to 10% +/- 2% ethanol, & I hate 15+%.

[oloba @oloba]

Getting my oil change, filter changed, tires rotated...
