Last Friday, I made a driver error which yielded catastrophic results. In my 1999 Corvette, my back tire went off the road on a curve, and I over corrected and slid across and went into a ditch at 50 MPH, flipped, etc, the car is gone.
My dad bought it for me last April, so I only had it for just over a year. Every time I started it up it felt brand new, it was mine and it was special. My dad and I talked about getting one for a long time, and we bought it and test drove it together, etc.
I am quite reserved when it comes to feelings, and I have been spending time with a close friend to keep my mind off of it, but while searching online for a new car (which of course will not be another corvette..) it hit me that I lost "oliver" and I went outside and threw up everything.
I know it's only a car, and I don't consider myself a materialistic person, but it still changes a lot. It was a great experience owning that car and I got very attached.
Now I'm looking for another car, something that won't remind me of the loss every time I look at it..
