a double flashback

Look at the Gremlin I saw when I picked up sushi yesterday... it's the cutest car I've ever seen! The plate said 'MINTY', a perfect description of the cars pretty color and it's sweet condition :) I would love to buy a car like this someday, maybe when my Nissan lease is up?
That's my red car over my left shoulder :)
Today I watched a 1981 movie on tv, "The Incredible Shrinking Woman"... it was really funny and silly, worth renting if you like old movies that are cheesy in the best way :)
Tomorrow I'll draw a winner for June's Big Giveaway... today's your last chance to enter!

    i used to adore that movie when i was a kiddo.

    although i remember being really scared when she fell into the sink garbage disposal!

    Oh that is a brilliant movie! I loved the part where she tries to live with Ken, but then she gets too small!

    I love that car, we could do some fun joyriding. If you were a car, you would be an old station wagon (the kind with wood panneling,.. charming, cute but versatile and functional. Could I be the gremlin?? I fear I might be a minivan :c
