Yeah, my car was all brown Wednesday. I rinsed it off but that didn't do too much, so I washed it today.

I'm here in La Porte hanging out with my friend for spring break and he lives over at an apartment complex. It sucked cause I washed the **** out of my T/A. The next morning I went outside and found my car covered in dirt/mud. I wasn't too happy cause I had to go wash it again .

Yeah but they wouldnt last one minute in our summers. People are funny. We get a lot of guest from up north in our hotel that laugh at us when its 40 degrees out and we are wearing our trench coats. I just laugh and tell them to come back in august and stand outside at noon for 30 minutes.
