PunkStarChik's blog: "Book Of Shadows"

Many many years ago...on a pretty sunny day, I had bought a sports car. It was a 1987 Nissan 300 ZX. I had traded my Ford Escort for it. I had named the car, Grim Reaper.....Reaper for short. I have regreted getting him though....

The reason why I had gotten that car was Rich thought it was such a cooooool car, him and his buddy thought it would be awesome to get. I had though...well maybe if I get this sports car, I'd be like..coool...and our relationship would be better in some way.... Yeah Yeah...stupid I know... but that's what I had thought...

After I had got Reaper, the guys drooled all over it, pimped it up some more and blah blah blah. For the longest time I couldn't get a simple conversation from Rich without it having to do with the car.

Then all of a sudden, the guys put some money together and soup up Rich's car. They lowered it and put a bunch of shit on it....my car hadn't been touched.

I told them, "Uh, you guys aren't done with my car but yet, you're fixing his car??" They said they'd get back to it.

My car had been ignored for a while..I could still drive it though. One night, while he took my car out... someone slashed one of my tires I guess. I had the most awesome rims on there too.

Throughout the time, my car needed some work....it needed a new axel and something else.... I kept telling him to help fix my car.... they kept putting it off.

I wasn't happy about it... I was paying for a car and doing insurance on it while it was sitting like a duck... I finally paid off the car... 5 grand was how much it was and it still said there for a long time....I just gave up on it. I wanted to sell it... I didn't want to deal with it anymore.

For a long time, my car collected dust. My pretty car....that I spent useless money on for stupid reasons. I've had some random people ask if they could buy it but I never got back to them because of some shit going on in my life.

Rich said he knew someone that would by it for 600 dollars or less. I said "Are you fucking crazy?!?!?!" That car is worth so much more than that!!!

But I really missed having my own car... I was at the point to where I Didn't know what to do with it....and not thinking too well.

So then comes Grandma's car...Richard's grandmas car. And you know how most granny cars look.....it's a grandmas car. I had already explained the story about us giving Grandma's house to one of his friends for free, Matt.... and Matt wanted grandmas car...needed a little work but he wanted it for free as well.

I told him that I didn't want to give it to him for free..I wanted to take that car, get what ever money I could with it, sell it....sell MY car and get another car.

I had thought that was our plan...but Rich talks to Matt about the whole car situation... Rich said..."Well Matt said if he fixs up grandmas car, could he have Reaper" Even though Reaper needed more work....Matt was willing to fix up both cars.

I said...Fine..whatever... I just want a fuckin car that runs!! So... we're in the process of trading cars.... my sports car for a granny's car....

I just have to find the damn Reaper key which I can't find.... ha ha....

Probably a real stupid trade I"m doing.... But at this point..I just don't care..I want a car and I don't want a fuckin sports car every again because of that shit in the past....

Maybe I"ll just throw a bunch of bumper stickers on the granny car and make it look cool..... ha ha ha yeah. right.....

I'll probaly try to sell this granny car or trade it in...

Yeah...there's my stupid car story
