Day Three: Thankful for my car

Driving. It's something we do without thinking. It's something that we probably take for granted all the time. When I went to school in Chicago I didn't have a car and I didn't drive. I was thankful for the great public transportation but I missed the freedom of coming and going that driving provided. When I lived in Northern Ireland I didn't have a car for part of the time and the summer I went back to do my internship I didn't have a car. I missed it then. I hated having to rely on people for rides to EVERYWHERE and hated not being able to come and go. It was like my independance got squashed. But how quickly I forget what that feels like when I do have the ability to drive a car on a regular basis. Which brings me to what I am thankful for today.

I am thankful for my car.

My 2007 Scion TC
 (well this isn't actually my car....but it looks just like it except mine is black)

I love my car. I love that it's a little sporty. I love that it has a sunroof. I love that it has an awesome sound system (and can play DVDs). I love that it's stickshift. I love that while it's not the fastest car in the world my little baby can pick up speed pretty good and has been known to put some macho guys in their place. (specifically in downtown Denver...right Laura?! hahaha). I love driving my little baby.
The only thing my car is missing is a name. I just haven't found the right one and it's been two years. Suggestions?
