Car envy

So I was giving my GC a clean up with Meguiar’s Ultimate Quick Detailer on the street near my house. A couple came walking by and stopped to compliment me on the beautiful car. After a few pleasantries, the wife turns to the husband and says: “What can’t your car look like that, Matthew?” Got a kick out of it. Idk how Matthew felt...

I’m stuck in Quarantine, and the weather in the tristate lately has been wet. Can’t wait to get out of my house, and wash/wax my car. Before I do that, I must get a HAIRCUT...

I wouldn't call it envy. More like having a cheeky wife.

Plot twist: Matthew has a 2020 911 GT2 RS that he’s too lazy to wash.

Then Matthew doesn’t deserve it. I watched Bad Boys For Life on Tuesday. Mike Lowery drives a 911 Carrera 4S in it. I thought to myself: That’s the first time I’ve ever seen anybody drive a 911 like it was meant to be. Lol! There are so many of them around Beverly Hills/West Hollywood that are never put to use - not even for a good ol 0-60 run once in a while, that I grew to think of them as mediocre. But they sure put that thing through the hoops in the movie. Really enjoyed it. Kind of want to test drive one after the madness. Any Porsche fans out there?

My neighbor says that every time I'm:

-washing my car/jeep
-mowing the lawn
-snow blowing the driveway
-spreading fertilizer
-digging stumps out of my yard with a backhoe (most recently)

Does the damn guy say anything else?

Just say "no, I'll be doing your wife". He probably won't speak to you again.

I am about to wash my neighbors car, in exchange for a hair cut. They have a little white smart car they share and they are both hair dressers.

At this point of quarantine I'd entertain licking my barber's car clean in exchange for a haircut

The struggle is real. Not so much for a hair cut but for color. My roots and grays are out of control. I've never dyed my own hair and I have a feeling I'm better off with the roots showing than the disastrous results of a DIY

I've been cutting my own hair for a few years now so not an issue for me, my wife quite colouring her hair a few years ago and the grey is actually nice and we've noticed a lot of 20 somethings have been dying their hair grey....many have complimented her on the colour.....I've offered to cut her hair for her and that was met with peels of laughter.....

I have long hair so I'll live without a haircut. I did trim my bangs this morning. I guess it is what it is. I'm not the only one running around with gray hair.

Hope quarantine here doesn't get to the point where we can't even wash our cars in the driveway.
