At the end of August, i will be packing up and moving back home to Seattle, Washington.

2 years of living in Cajun Country, and almost 5 years away, it's time to go back. Mainly though, things between my girlfriend and i can't go much further if we can't see each other more than 2 or 3 times a year. (she's in oakland, Ca). She's moving up there with me Summer of 07 to attend grad school.

While it's been fun living away from home, i've finally kind of become homesick as well. As much as my family irritates me, i do kind of miss them, and my dog....

I'm not sure if i'm taking the Yoda or not. If i don't, i'll probably borrow my step dad's 95 Ford Taurus until i can buy another Z.

I'll be taking I-10 to I-5, but circumventing Los Angeles i think by 210 or 510...i'm not sure which one it is, but i traveled it when i drove from Phoenix to Seattle a couple years ago.

I'll let you know when exactly i'll be on the move

my grandmother(76) is on vacation in Seattle right now (seeing family), she calls me up and say's "I got a tatoo, a permanent one"...... thanks Seattle.

I do like Seattle though. Good food and good music.

haven't figured that one out yet.:bah: :bah: My only thought is... she's 76, she can do what she wants?

No, it's on good terms. I've got the highest Customer Satisfaction in the shop. And that includes 2 Master Techs. I have virtually no comebacks to speak of and i get along with pretty much everyone.

But there is a sense that i need to get the hell out of here. Everything that makes the south the butt of all the jokes, is centered next to my dealership. And no, i am not joking. The dealership is located across the street from the Housing and Urban Development neighborhood, and kitty corner to low income apartments

A couple months ago, 10 Mercedes had their mirror covers stolen. Apparently the mirror covers of the C class fit on Civics and Accords :roll: (yes, i am talking about the lighted mirrors) No one here makes much of an attempt to shake their stereotypes and it really pisses me off to the point where i feel like i've lost alot of respect for alot of groups.

come up to Detroit...

you have one faction that is the exact same

and the ones who are desperately disassociating with the first group... so much so, they'd concider almost themselves white... and they def. wouldn't get along.

you have no idea

X-kalades are the rave, if you can afford it.... but otherwise, its your monte carlo's, Lincoln's, and Buicks with the rims.

Good luck with the move Zfrk, it's always nice to be back home around family. So do you plan on working at another BMW dealer in Seattle?

ZfrkS62 · 07-27-2006, 01:44 AM

yeah, i'm sticking with BMW. If i ever decide i don't want to work for the Bavarians anymore, i'm going to go Italian

The 210 isn't all that far from me, especially if I ride, so if you do end up taking it, that will work too. We can meet somewhere around there for a little confab.
