). I'm satisfied with her career path (gave up on college), very agressive and she has a job with a future. Although she did express to me she'd like to open a pawn shop or be an American picker. She got a metal detector for Christmas.Quote from nutmeg:
Cars are really ugly and boring these days. They're all some variation of an egg and silver or white. I doubt any of these cars will become "have to have" matchbox collectables in the future.
Kids toy trucks and cars are some transformer wierd ass shape because who wants to play with a leaf?
Oh well. We've come along way since the only car was a model T and the only color is black but it's like we are heading back to where everything on the road looks the same.

Backyard Update.
Well, my backyard continues to be the Land O' Excitement.
The Morning Glories continue their march over everything. Kinda like the Red Army near the end of World War II.
I have a giant Bougavilia near the fence that is engaged in mortal combat with the Morning Glories. They're both bad ass plants.
The Morning Glories have just about covered the Bougavilia, but it just keeps growing out, becoming larger and larger.
