This past fall, I bought a new car. It's the first time I've owned a car that was a model year newer than the current calendar year. I've never been prouder of myself (except for quitting drinking) than I was when I drove off the lot. She's my reward to myself for finally defeating my demons. And what a beautiful piece of awesome!

Because I'm a nerd, I had to name her. I went with Sylvia, because of her beautiful silver paint job, and I already had a car named 'Bessie'. I vowed to take care of Sylvia, keep her clean, up to date with maintenance and so on. My wife got me a Flux Capacitor to install in Sylvia so now we can travel through time.

I was heartbroken the morning of June 26th when I filled in for Pat & AJ. Why? Because a stupid deer decided to wage war against me and Sylvia on the way into work around 5:45am. The deer got away, and Sylvia ended up in the car hospital.

Yesterday, my baby came home! She loves me just as much as I love her. I know it's creepy, but I'm a nerd... what did you expect? See our reunion in the video below, but only watch it if you're not easily offended. Remember, I have a sick mind!
