I like Volkswagens. I hate birds.

Nobody on this site knows who I am. But I feel the need to vent. I wrecked my car on the way to Fivezero's house (okay, I know one person on Ezabel). My front end was crushed in totally and leaking juice. The VW symbol on the front grill was gone and I was sad that I couldn't find it anywhere on the turnpike. The car is totalled and they took my child from me. My first car, first love...my car was one of those types where only I knew its quirks. Only I could get that car to run. The back doors would open for me and only me. We understood eachother. So I am checking out other VW's and tonight I realize that I forgot to get my special Volkswagen floormats out of my car. The car I am looking at doesn't have any floormats. I am not happy with this situation. Shew. I feel better now.

i'm just glad you weren't injured. vehicles and floor mats can be replaced. you, my dear, cannot. you'll be back on the road in no time. i bet you were happy you still got to watch me play Marvel vs. Capcom2 and Silent Scope at seaside. not to mention the skeeball tickets we donated to charity..

yes, robbie threatened me. i was frightened for my life.

thatdarngirl #5 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Aww I'm sorry! That's really sad. I dred the day when I total my volvo..though that may be physically impossible because it is a monster. But..I take pictures of it just incase.

malibu #6 malibuOG 2001

oooh a fellow vw owner? i love my vw. we bonded. its the same thing, it starts right up for me but when other try, it doesn't work. its a beautiful thing.

togatweeter #6.1 togatweeterOG 2003

hehe, i love mine too. i got a red 5-speed jetta.. i gotta learn stick tho

skaorsk8 #6.1.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

umm. dude. we gotta work on this driving thing. seriously. you cant' drive on your own. you have a car but you don't know how to drive it. what is going on here. i can teach anyone to drive stick in less than 10 minutes.

hunkpapap #6.1.1.1 hunkpapapOG 2003

i learned to drive stick on like 5 minutes. It takes a longer time than that to master tho....

malibu malibuOG 2001

yeah. i've driven stick before and i picked it up fast but when i think about myself actually driving someplace, i don't know if i can do it.

togatweeter #6.1.1.2 togatweeterOG 2003

i'll learn eventually tho. i'm just familiar with automatic. october is my road test

#6.1.2 nine9starOG 2001

Manual is the ONLY way to drive, it gives you so much more control and feel of the car, i personally would only ever drive manual unless i lost a foot or someone gave me a car (which was auto)!

ilikebirds #7 ilikebirdsOG 2002

you hate birds? ....thats why you got into an accident. birds deserve admiration. point is... you're safe. and i have nice ankles.

skaorsk8 #7.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

dude, girls with nice ankles are rare

T
#7.1.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

i don't think my ankles are all that bad

malibu #7.1.2 malibuOG 2001

is that the coolest part of a girls body? her ankles? i really had no idea.

T
#7.1.2.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

it was news to me, i am gonna start rubbing lotion into my ankles now to increase my market value

malibu malibuOG 2001

thats what i was thinking. hahah in Glamour magazine the other day they were talking about the understated sexy parts of a girl. the shoulders were one (i agree) but sadly the clavicle bone was missing.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

The clavicle bone is the best, though I do enjoy my shoulders. I don't know what guys are thinking with this whole T&A thing. Though, if ankles are in I am doomed, my feet are my downfall.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

the clavicle is KEY

malibu malibuOG 2001

isn't it? i've had this discussion with many people. i had one guy tell me that it was the most disgusting thing he'd ever heard and why would that be cool, but i think its beautiful.

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

not to change the subject, but dryer sheets are key. and i personally like eyes and hands. but not on girls, i don't care about girls.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

you know, now that we are on dryer sheets, in a pinch, those work as a great air freshener for the car. stash them under the seat...your car will smell like clean in about an hour.

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

oh my gosh yeah, i obsess over that smell. i have air fresheners and candles in that scent. bizarrely enough i even have a bottle of perfume in laundromat smell. smells like a dryer sheet. just like heaven.

malibu malibuOG 2001 toxicgirl

i think a great perfume scent would be the beach and fire. like you'd been sitting by the fire all nite. that's my dream scent. like burnt wood.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

you should lotion up the crease in front of your elbow and behind your knee too. not that it increases your market value or anything... but just in case they are dry.. you want them moisturized , plus it feels funny.

forrestina #7.1.3 forrestinaOG 2002

that is just sick

T
#7.1.4 toxicgirlOG 2003

however i think a girl with bad ankles is nothing in comparison to a guy with nasty toes.

malibu #7.1.4.1 malibuOG 2001

with hair his toes? i hate guys that wear socks with their sandals. in california i hear it okay, but it really isn't.

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

i was thinking more along the lines of toe nail fungus or even long nails. i know that i am a nut when it comes to what my feet and hands look like, but c'mon, it takes only a couple of minutes.

birds carry the west nile virus AND they look at you with scary eyes like they want to attack you and gouge out your eyes...

ilikebirds #7.2.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

no, those are mosquitos. birds are the things that have feathers and wake up real early to eat worms. but not all of them , the lazy ones just die a lot.

beachbum #7.2.2 beachbumOG 2002

haha, you are sounding like andrew. he swears our parakeet is eyeing his juglar and he will wake up one day with it attached to his neck trying to kill him.

ilikebirds #7.2.2.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

no. thats just you attached to his neck trying to kill him. isn't 'parakeet' his nickname for you.. and isn't your nickname for him " puggy bear"

beachbum beachbumOG 2002

metophorically yes, i'm sucking the lifeblood, aka money, out of him. but i need to keep him alive so he can keep the dough rollin. isn't "puggy bear" the plastic "imitation person" you sleep with?

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

yea.. i named it after drew. it's cool.

rocksupastar #8 rocksupastarFounder

thats why i drive a saturn, do avoid situations like this. The saturn is indestructable... i could bounce off every accident... well cept that one, but that was just cause the planet Uranus was in semigemomentric alignment with Alpha Centuri.... and gravity or something...

ilikebirds #9 ilikebirdsOG 2002

yea i'm so happy i was born with nice toes and nice nails... nothing weird about 'em.. except the scars from the infamous 'bermuda' accident.

ilikebirds #10 ilikebirdsOG 2002

i hate volkswagons . i like birds.

T
#10.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

ilikebirds #10.1.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

ok4now #10.1.1.1 ok4nowOG 2002

ilikebirds #12 ilikebirdsOG 2002

i saw biker boys last night. it was the worst movie on the planet.
why does "smoke" ride around on a pink bike. geez. however... i did get the fast and furious bug. so after watching the movie i felt invincible and flew around. bad idea.

#12.1 nine9starOG 2001

ha ha i borrowed my cousins BMW and did the same, he was actually pretty impressed as he said "You're not bad at this driving lark.......for a girl" ha ha ha

T
#12.2 toxicgirlOG 2003

what does this have to do with me? this journal is all about me.

ilikebirds #12.2.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

and you arrreee?

T
#12.2.1.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

I am offended that you don't remember meeting me at a Jersey bonfire that actually had no bonfire and no lights cuz Seaside lost its power. I remember meeting you even tho I couldn't see your face. I am crushed.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

hahaha.... thats so funny. hahaah.. you were there ? come on.. i was half intoxicated. i just walked 5 miles. and i had to deal with this chick. comeeeee onnnnn. and it was dark ! ( haha bonfire with no fire ... is there ever a fire .. i need to come down again... with actual fire.. and ICE !!! that stuff was so nasty warm )

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

ohhh and i can't believe a bottle of grey goose was popped and poured.
horrible. horrible

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

Didn't you have TWO chicks with you? I actualy thought you were a pimp. Besides, I don't care what the circumstances were. But then again, I did kinda leave the group for a bit with someone...ok, you are forgiven.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

you always have to bring 2.. in case one gets sick and throws up on you.. you can mack to the other one.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

soo you THOUGHT.. that means.. you no longer think I AM ? awww im crushed. hurt even.

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

If the next time I meet you, you wear a hat with a big feather in it, I'll take that back and restore your pimp status.

walkngplaygrnd #13 walkngplaygrndOG 2003

I felt a need to respond to this for two reasons: 1) I know who you are (but of course I'm new here), and 2) I've been there with the whole crashing my car, my first love . . . of course, some how, some way, my car lives . . . I think it might have bionic properties . . . but know that there are others, just like you who have suffered such losses, and rest assured that, even though your next car might not be as quirky, it will still come to have a special place in your heart . . . as does your first . . .

P.S. I do, of course, know fivezero as well, and I would also like to present you with a very special sticker to put on your new car next time I see you . . . ;-)

T
#13.1 toxicgirlOG 2003

OOOOOH a new sticker, I already asked Giorgio about this. A good Guilderbell groupie keeps up with this stuff. And hey, check your aol email, I sent you one.

walkngplaygrnd #14 walkngplaygrndOG 2003
