I got the following letter in the mail not long ago:
Steve,
Our love began with a glance across a parking lot.
You possessed me in just a few days.
I remember long drives through the countryside,
And long weekend getaways.
But the years passed, and like upholstery in the hot sun,
Your love began to fade.
And now in a time when I need your care the most,
You hit the blinker and turn away.
And while our gas tank of love may be running on fumes,
I still have plenty of love to share.
So if you have a quart of tenderness left for me in your heart,
Take me back to Firestone Complete Auto Care.
Love,
Your 2000 Celica GT
I didn’t know my car felt that way. It’s been over a month, and I’ve yet to take my car back to Firestone. Now there’s an awkward silence every time I get in the car. Someone else who got a similar letter from their car decided to write back.
