When you have something inanimate to cradle with love?

I’m picking up a red ‘95 Miata this Saturday for 800$.

Masa is going to help me fix the head gasket (and if it’s hopeless, talk to one of his many car buddies for someone who has a miata engine lying around).

I’ll have about 400$ after everything to spend on a top, possibly tires, interior things, etc.

But it’s going to be my baby. And I will love it like a best friend. And take care of it. And kiss it goodnight.

Oh yeah, and I’m naming her Mia.
