My brother-in-law was really thoughtful to give me a ride in his Porsche a couple of nights ago. I've been bugging my sis to drive me in the car since I found out her hubby had bought it. It was really more for the experience than anything. I can remember when I started out in my career a sports car would have been a goal to own one fine day, especially if my investments worked out. So obviously my investments never quite worked out the way I would have it. ;) Sad story aside, the offer was great since I had an especially tough day at work that particular day. So after dinner, I happily walked with my bro-in-law and my nephew to the car.
It was a struggle to get into the car since the car was so darn low. It felt kind of strange since I could not see the rest of the cars at eye level, which was kind of an irony since I thought the more expensive car should be 'looking down' on the cheaper cars instead. ;) And so we drove off. It was kind of noisy since we had the windows down. But the acceleration was cool though there was not much opportunity to do so since the roads were particularly crowded that night. It was a great chat with bro as he explained to be the difference between Porsche and other cars. Never knew there was a car with engines at the back and storage at the front! Yep, cars were never quite my thing. ;)
He decided to send my nephew home first before dropping me since we were staying quite close together. Guess he probably thought I would have more time to enjoy the ride. Actually I enjoyed the time spent with him more than the ride. He's such a positive influence to be around. Will probably write about him some time soon. Well, we finally reached my place. As we approached, he commented it would have been nice had I been dropped at the place (person) I would have wanted to impress. Haha. Anyway, thanks Bernard for the ride......
