But you can call me Sally

by Miss Britt on September 5, 2007

For those of you who are pop culture addicts, I have The Scoop Of The Century for you, right here. Yes, yes, you will not (yet) read about it in the tabloids, but big things are happening. Big Things. Things that promise to overshadow any recent coochie sightings, for sure.

Miss Britt’s singing career has been REVIVED!!

That’s right, I. am. back!

What do you mean you’d never heard of my singing? Oh my God. Seriously. I am not surprised, however, because I have been on hiatus. And everyone knows if you go on hiatus for any length of time people forget about you completely. It’s almost as if you never had a reputation to begin with. Pfft.

ANYway. Yes. I used to be glorious. GLORIOUS, I tell you. With singing and dancing and choreographing. And oh the RANGE! The “ooh ooh ooohs” and the “la la laaa’s” were really where I shined. *sigh* Good times, good times.

And then, I moved. And my new bathroom was on the main floor. And the shower was all glass, facing a mirror. And this kind of environment just wasn’t conducive to my style. The fact that everyone in the house could hear me and that I could very easily see me, was just… stifling. I no longer felt free to really Express Mahself. It was a sad time for the world as a whole, I’m sure.

But all that has changed. Oh Music Gods you have shined upon us once again! Yay, you truly blessed us all, the day you brought me, this….

<'03 Mustang Convertible

Yes, my friend, this has brought music back into my heart - nay, my SOUL!

Driving home on the Interstate with the top down and Prince BLARING (thru the iPod which hooks up to the stereo and is then run by the stereo system… which is uber cool, or at least will be, once I learn how to use it - all I know how to do now is Find Prince) is absolutely the most fun a girl can have by herself (shuddup).

The drive home yesterday was a BREEZE. If there was traffic, I didn’t care. Oh my God I am telling you there is nothing better. Nothing.

Speaking of how I’m a bad mom…. the kids love it. Well, Devin loves it. He says he gets in the car and “Bam! I’m in Hollywood Baby!” Emma loves it, as long as the top is up or she is wearing a hat and preferably sleeping. Which is fine, I don’t have a problem keeping the top up when I take her to school and then spending about, oh, 2 seconds putting it back down before I hit the road.

I. Love. This. Car.

The only downside? No cigarette lighter. Hence, no smoking on the Interstate.

Sooo…. I’ve been forced to make a difficult decision. I’ve been thinking about it for a while now anyway, but this just solidifies it.

I’m clearly going to need to go to Wal-Mart. Apparently you can buy a cigarette lighter for your car there for like $2 bucks.

ANYhoo, that’s my car. You can see more of my car here… (because surely that’s what you live for, right?)

Psst... thanks for stopping by! I hope I didn't traumatize you too badly on your first visit. Remember to subscribe to my RSS feed if you want updates from the site!

    And in a car like that, there will certainly and have certainly been tons of coochie sightings. I think I’ll just call you Paris from now on.

    avitable: except that I wear UNDERWEAR, thank you very much.

    RW: Oh. My. God. Was that… approval??

    Cheri: thank you! :-D

    themuttprincess: would you like an autograph? I can put you down as one of the first - I’m sure the requests will start piling in any day now.

    NotaGranny: I run the air sometimes too, although normally I just let the window cool me so I can FEEL if I’m getting burned by the sun.

    AmyD: I am seriously considering the $16 vanity plate that says “Ms Britt”

    hellohahanarf: I have a cheap bic but it won’t light in the wind, unless I duck under the dash or something, which apparently is “dangerous”. :rolleyes:

    DeannaBanana can’t wait to see yours!

    (did you get my email, btw? the first time it bounced back…)

    I rented one just like yours a few weeks ago in Ohio. I had the top down all the time. Loved it. You look great with your top down by the way…

    one more question. What do you sell at work??

  13. Mom September 5, 2007 12:49 pm

    Well it’s not a RED JEEP CONVERTIBLE with BIG MEAT TIRES and the STEREO IN THE ROLLBAR…but it’s very cute and very you. :wave:

  14. Kelly September 5, 2007 12:53 pm

    What?! You wear underwear? Aw, damn!

    [Reply]

  15. Brandi September 5, 2007 1:07 pm

    I am like Emma, I dont like my hair whipping me in the face when the window, or in your case, the top is down. As gross as it is, I’d rather sweat that get bitch slapped with my own tresses.

    However, it did meet the requirement that you will look hot driving it. I’ll teach you how to work that Ipod if you agree that we can drive fast screaming Pussy Control into the wind!

  16. Miss Britt September 5, 2007 1:21 pm

    Greg t: the top down definitely allows for more freedom! lol

    And I sell my sparkling personality at work, mainly. Why do you ask?

    RW: :-P

    Mom: yeah, I’m definitely more a mustang girl than a Jeep I suppose. I’ll still let you ride in it though when you visit. ;-)

    :heartbeat:

    yes, I wear underwear. I’ve never been able to figure out the allure of the whole commando thing.

    Brandi: deal, and if you could send me a download of Pussy Control i would be eternally grateful as, somehow, I don’t have that on the iPod. :-(

    :clap: :thumbsup:

    Excellent choice!!!

    That car is SOOO you. And you should totally spring for the Ms. Britt Vanity plate—that way folks could easily stalk you on the internet after you flip them off in traffic;-)

    Now all you need is a name for her and you are set—or are you going with ‘Sally’ ?

    O.M.G. That’s IT. I am moving into the house next door NOW! Hold the door open for me, I am throwing the moving boxes over the Atlantic by hand! Catch!

    i wanna new car. a convertible new car. sigh.

  22. Kellie September 5, 2007 4:43 pm

    Sweeeeeet!! Perhaps I need to move to Florida. We have a 2005 Mustang Cobra and living in NY? Means I drive the car five months a year, which means it spends approximately 7 months in a climate controlled storage unit. *sigh* Nothing like paying a crapton of money each month between the payment and insurance and the storage rental and NOT being able to drive it.

    Congrats–you’re stylin’ even more now!!

  23. Miss Britt September 5, 2007 4:59 pm

    Turnbaby: yeah, right now it’s just “her”. Sally may be a little TOO cliche, wouldn’t it?

    DutchBitch: throw harder!

    Lynda: sweeeeet!! and posters?

    themuttprincess: it’s in the mail!

    hellohahanarf: I’m offering rides!

    Kellie: oh no fucking way, that would suck. They couldn’t figure out how to get my temporary plates on and asked me if I could not put the top down for a month.

    I said no fucking way. I’m buying a convertible, I’m not NOT putting the top down.

    I don’t know how you do it.

    Holy shit woman, nice car! So, some day when I go down there and stay with you, are ya going to let me drive it? :D

    [Reply]

  25. Turnbaby September 5, 2007 5:15 pm

    Yup

    Mine has a name–IsaBelle–

    She’s a gunmetal colored Infiniti FX 35

    I :heartbeat: my car!

    Sadly, the posters got lost when I moved. :sad:

    A car seat in a convertible….doesn’t that ruin the safety issue of having a car seat??? Just wondering! :D

  29. Rich | Championable September 5, 2007 7:42 pm

    Oh! Forgot to say: Carseats in convertibles work, if you can disengage the airbag in the front right passenger seat. I’ve got an old Miata, and you can use the ignition key to disable the passenger-side airback, for the littler ones.

    Rock on.

    Was it ‘Little Red Corvette’? ‘1999′?

    [Reply]

  31. Mr. Fabulous September 6, 2007 8:28 am

    Please don’t be like Mrs. Fab and only put the top down six times a year.

    [Reply]

  32. Miss Britt September 6, 2007 8:52 am

    heather: I don’t even let my husband drive it. It has power seats with 50 different freaking options so I’ve told him now that I have the seat PERFECT, it would just ruin everything if he drove it. :evil:

    Turnbaby: ooooh… I almost got an Infiniti - those are niiice.

    Maybe I need a name my car contest.

    Lynda: shoot. You may be able to find them on Ebay.

    debkitty: ummmm…. I don’t see why it would. A car seat in any car is to restrain the child so that if you get in an accident they don’t go flying forward, get whip lash, etc. etc. etc.

    She’s still restrained. (And, most of the time if she’s in there I have to have the top up anyway)

    Rich: :-D - do you have to do that if they are in the back? I always thought that was just a “if they are in the front seat” thing??

    BOSSY: hahah, well, it’s a long drive so yes, yes, and also Purple Rain, When Doves Cry, Black Sweat, Kiss, etc. etc. etc.

    I must say though I fee weird when Little Red Corvette comes on, like some kind of fake, or something. (Clearly, I have issues.)

    Mr. Fab: I’ve had the top down more than six times since I bought it!! WHY doesn’t she put it down!??!

    [Reply]

  33. Rich | Championable September 6, 2007 8:57 am

    You’re totally right. I was thinking “in the front.” Fine. You have way more seats than me. Show off. ;-)

    Ours is black with a red interior.
    Shitload of fun, isn’t it?
    I love it.

  35. Miss Britt September 6, 2007 9:33 am

    Rich: LOL, well, truth be told, I’m sure my son wishes he could sit in front for the leg room.

    I’m a bad, bad, selfish mommy, I know.

    J.: Ok now THAT is fucking cool.
