We're not sure yet when it's going to arrive at the dealership, but we're flying to Salt Lake City on September 11th to drive it back to Washington State.

GROMIT: Yeah, we're not too worried....but you never know. It's not the best date to be flying on (9-11)
QUEENOFWHATEVER: That would be SWEET! So have you got a firm delivery date from them yet? Who is your MA? Ours is Juan. What color, etc...are you getting? (it's good to meet someone who is doing the same thing we are....maybe we're not so crazy after all!)

Be sure and keep us updated. (I can't even get my MA to return my emails)

I FINALLY heard from my MA! My car has arrived in SLC and will be ready for pick up Saturday morning. We will be flying there Friday evening so we can be on the dealer's doorstep when they open Saturday morning. LOL This will seriously be the longest week of my life. Msg me the spec's on your car or something so I will know which one is yours to take pics for you!

Well, last week I realized that my mini is not, in fact, a boy. She is clearly a girl and needed a better name than Green Racer. So after much thought (and consultation with one of my best friends) I came up with...
Ivy
It fits particularly well, in my not so humble opinion.
So how are our west coast week 28ers? Everyone have their mini and working on the break in period?
Tomorrow will mark 4 weeks with Ivy and I'm at just over 800 miles. Considering my commute to work is only 6 miles, I think I'm doing pretty good.

Btw, you were right--the torrid love affair has definitely begun. Logan is all man and all mine!
Before Logan, I really enjoyed my Integra and thought she was sexy and speedy, but enjoying is different than turning giddy every time you see your car knowing that it's yours, it's gorgeous, and you get to drive it. Going out to lunch with coworkers, or taking a trip with friends, I used drive only if no one else would volunteer--suddenly, I'm always the first to volunteer. Yum!
He's only gone about 650 miles so far, but I have a short commute and was sick in bed all last week...

Long story short, Ivy revealed herself pretty much right from the start. She was clearly a pretty girl, polite, playful, not nearly mean enough to have 'racer' in her name. Coming up with the name was a process let me tell you.
I'm so close to 1250 that I can taste it. I can't wait.
