I went on a date with my wife today, so of course we took the Porsche. It makes things feel extra special, plus, you’ll never lose this car in the parking lot – you can see it for miles!
My wife commented that it was crazy that I bought the Porsche, but she continues to be happy that I did. It’s different, special, risky, impractical, and wonderful. Few would be so bold as to purchase such a thing, especially in yellow. She loves how methodical I was in my quest for this machine – not impulsive, but focused on a singular goal, and willing to wait for the right opportunity.
If I ever feel that I have some extra cash to throw away again (not likely), my next quest will be some much needed upgrades to my musical instruments. I’ve been wanting a 12-string acoustic (Ovation or Taylor), a (real) Gibson Les Paul electric, a Fender Jazz bass, a MarkBass or David Eden Bass Amp, and a Marshall stack. If money were no object, I’d also throw in an Ampeg SVT-2Pro bass head with the 8-10” cabinet. With all those upgrades, I would be set for the rest of my gigging life. Truth be told, I’m already set with what I have… which is why I have not purchased any of these things already… and why I purchased the car instead when the money became available.
Plus, you can’t take your wife out on a date with a bass amp, but you can with a car.
