This year I started driving it since Apr, occasionally in Mar.....

Damn... I am really addicted to this car.... can't imagine have to store it again next month....

I could drive it year round... with the appropriate tyres, provided the snow gets no higher than my Z's chin spoiler, in which case it would turn into a snow plow.
Even without snow, the cold temperatures would require all season tyres because high-performance summer rubber turns to stone in the winter and has a tendency to chunk, ruining the tyres pretty quickly.
I could subject my Z to salt and gravel, and hog up the interior with winter's muck...
But I don't. I have a beater truck that sits up high, has all season tyres and 4WD.

It was a long haul to get here. I was called today about 2 PM and told that I was clear, background check-wise. I had a resignation letter ready to go and resigned about 15 minutes after the call. I got a very heavy "but, we're a family", "why did you not tell us", "what are we going to do?" thing layed on me for about a half an hour.

What a day. It was sad, happy and then sad again when I got home and realized Daisy was gone.
