Vignette

I had a bike rack installed in the parking spot of my condo unit today. Since it was going to be installed in the middle of the day and I needed to be back at my building to point the guy to the right place, I took the car in to work. And since I was driving the car, I offered the_siobhan a ride to her place.

Anyway, we're at an intersection and there's an SUV in front of us, and I said something snarky about the SUV driver's signaling skills. Sio quizzes me about being snarky and I say, "I'm especially critical with anyone who drives an SUV."

Sio: "I get that. It's like how I always squee when I see a Smart Car." And, at that moment, we just happened to pass a Smart Car and Siobhan squee-ed on cue.

I looked over at her, a look of shy apprehension on my face, and said, "My car... is it good enough to be touched?"

And lo, she told me how beautiful my Prius was.

"It's a bit dusty, though," she said after running her hand over the dashboard.
