i love the smell of 5w20 in the morning

Sunday is the day for my favorite outdoor soccer league. These guys are amazing. I look forward all week to playing with them. Sunday morning, I went for an oil change before my game. Normally, I do it myself, but I was running short of time and I was already pushing well into the better-do-it-now range. Upon getting out of the shop, I headed down I290. I keeping up with traffic (read: speeding my ass off) when there was an exceptionally loud bang, a whole bunch of smoke, and an engine that wouldn't go. As it turns out, I blew a rod (strait through the damn oilpan) and, long story short, my car is toast. A couple of buddies picked me up from the mechanic and we went downtown to the second of my double-header matches. The other team neglected to show up. WTF! Combine that with the fact that i fell down half a flight of stairs moving a friend on saturday and it makes for a pretty shitty weekend.

So why am I telling you this? I bought a new car last night. Pop quiz: which kind of car did mike buy?

Well, I would hope that it would be this, but I'm guessing that it was this.
