I spent a large chunk of last week, dealing with my car. It’s been in a friend’s extra parking space underground, in North York.
It hasn’t moved since December 30, 2011.
The electrical has been going for a long time. Half the windows don’t go down, I saw it arc once, blogged the problems before: The Studio Lives and Been Car-less for 2 Weeks Now.
Called CAA, who towed me to Canadian Tire.
It’s no longer a car, it’s now a money pit.
Came to terms with it Wednesday night.
Here’s an email I sent a friend, sums it up well.

This is the 10th car I’ve said goodbye to; it’s not that.
I sat inside, got chocked up.
Because look, so beautiful.
I’m not attached to much material stuff (remember when I gave away all my belongs last year), but this is making me sad.
I invented my show in here, “The Canadian Explorer”:
driving around celebrating Canada, my studio is my caaar
Here’s the theme song I wrote, sums it all up in 0:18.
3 years, 80 episodes, 1,000 good stories, and the best internet training ever – that’s where the attachment is coming from.
Oh well, back to the bottom line in my above email.
Stay tuned for a good crushing video.
