Me: We're selling our cars. If you know anyone who wants to buy a Honda Civic or a Honda Pilot, let me know.
My mother: WHY are you selling your cars?
Me: Because we're moving to NYC, remember?
Mother: I know that. I just thought you'd want to keep one car.
Me: No one has cars in the city. You take the subway or walk.
Mother: Well, I would want a car.
Me: It costs around $800/month just to park a car in the city.
Mother: And? I would still want to keep a car.
Me: That's a tad pricey. I am not keeping a car. Why would you want a car?
Mother: In case I wanted to escape.
Thats why they have rental car places that will deliver! That cracks me up though what your mom said. Too funny........
ReplyDeletea wise woman.
ReplyDeletetoo funny! and very sweet :-)
ReplyDeleteShe does have a point.
ReplyDeleteI found your blog via your jewelry site, and have been interested in your upcoming move to the big city! First of all, I think you and your family will love living there! Second of all if you want or need to escape, there is Zipcar, which I recommend. (check it out: zipcar.com). Totally convenient.
ReplyDeletebtw, I left NYC for London just a year and 1/2 ago and hardly a day goes by that I don't miss it!
