Things Our 2000 White Mini-van Would Probably Say To Me, If It Were Human And Capable of Speech, Now That We’ve Sold It To The Local Junkyard, The List:

Throwback to June 29, 2015

1. “You used me to teach 3 kids to drive. I took great care of them, didn’t I?”

2. “You also allowed all 3 of those kids to drive me throughout their high school careers. I took great care of them, although I am not so sure they took great care of me.”

3. “Those dings in my fenders and doors and side panels? High school parking lot souvenirs.”

4. “The huge patch of purple paint covering the carpet in the trunk? Eagle Scout project souvenir.”

5. “Those stains on the floor mats? Those were your fault since you allowed juice boxes and snacks in the car.”

6. “Youngest Child never felt cool and sexy when he was behind my wheel, but he did love my power to accelerate.”

7. “Remember how, on the fourth day you owned me, that microburst put a tree on top of me and broke the windshield and some windows? You found pieces of safety glass in your grass for years afterwards.”

8. “You were my first and only owner. Aren’t you feeling a tad guilty about selling me?”

9. “Maybe it’s like organ transplanting….my soul will live on if my parts get used in other vehicles.”
