So today, several days after I bought my car, I made it to the DMV in my county, at which I could turn in the title to have it transferred to my name, pay sales tax, and acquire temporary tags by which I may legally drive my vehicle. Next I have to get an emissions test, get the new car listed on my insurance, and figure out what to do with my old car. I’m very reluctant now to get rid of it. My friend who is interested is waiting to get back to me on it.
Meet Laurelin, named for the golden tree in Valinor:
The first place I ever drove by myself, in my first car, was to my friend’s house. It was a wild party with drinking and a cake sliced with a sword and a strange large man in denim overalls without a shirt blocking the door. I was 19, and stayed long enough to take a walk with a friend who was also at the party, show her my car, and escape. Still, it was a memorable experience, and I have every intention of driving my new car to that same house as soon as possible. Except this time instead of being filled with newly adult partiers, it is filled with a family of five children, their parents, and another smaller family living in the spare room. Isn’t life exciting?
(Update: The first place I ever drove my new Nissan Altima after purchase was to those same friends’ house. That night was also a memorable occasion, but not one for a blog.)
To God be all glory.
