Chevy is a sponsor of this thing in Chicago.
They had a silver Camaro sitting on the expo floor.
I asked if I could sit in it.
Not only did they say yes, they said there was one outside THAT I COULD DRIVE.
And it was yellow.
So I did.
(turn up the sound to hear the car, squeals of ecstasy optional.)
In the time it took you to watch that Cody simultaneously seethed with jealousy, beamed with pride, rolled his eyes and cringed with fear.
(Oh, and in other news I won stuff, basically got President Obama’s phone number, cried, may have single handedly solved America’s sucky healthcare system with Loralee, cried some more, danced, won some more stuff, had a vibrator thrown at me by a table full of bawling women, spoke on the most amazing panel to ever be at BlogHer that thing in Chicago ever which resulted in some more crying. = GOOD DAY.)

How awesome!
It sounds like you’re having a great time. When vibrators are thrown at you, you know it can’t be bad.

Um, so freakin’ cooolio!! The video I had to watch at least 4 times, because it made me giggle…and pee a little. Um, if I recognize the passenger is that Mommy from the Midwest??

I’m glad you fared better than your last foray with a car other than yours.

My first car was a flashy white Camaro. I loved it so. I miss the smell. It was a combination of coconut & Verbena spray from bath & Body works covering up stale cigarette smoke and make-out sessions. Oh man. It was the best smelling car EVER.

@Christopher Barger, You’re lucky I have morals Mr. Barger.
Thanks a million times over for the opportunity, both my husband and my father in law have never been more jealous.

SO fun! I drove a Camaro until I had little princesses who needed carseats (safety’s overrated). It was a *weee bit* older *ahem* ’91. Her name was Cammy. I’ll never forget her. Sniff, sniff.

You’re getting cool points from my kid because you drove Bumblebee!
