Mental Note: I Reached 210,000 Miles In My Car Last Night

Earlier in the week I noticed that I was fast approaching that milestone and I thought, "Hey, should I snap a photo of the odometer as soon as it reaches that point, like I did with 200,00?"  And then I thought, "Nah, I'll probably be on the highway or something then."  But then I thought, "Well, it can't hurt, can it?  If you don't have the opportunity you don't, but if you do have the chance to pull over, why not do that?"

And then I forgot about it, dinked around on the Internet, masturbated to porn a couple times and fell asleep early.

Woke up just in time for me to pack up my computer and get to work.  After work and putzing around before the Gopher soccer game began at 7 I noticed that I was getting really close, and I had no idea when that odometer would tick over to that magical number.  Finally, when I parked in Falcon Heights City Hall, I looked at the odometer and it gave that harmonious number, "210000."

Dammit!  This would have been perfect!  I wouldn't even have to pull over -- I hit 210,000 in a parking lot!  But alas I didn't have my camera.  Oh well.  I comfort myself in the solace that I at least I snapped 200,000 for all posterity.
