Dear Corolla,
I don’t quite know how to tell you this, but I think it’s time we parted ways. I will always cherish the memory of how we met in the parking lot of the North Austin Embassy Suites and how nice you looked when Dad replaced your tires for Christmas. I will remember with fondness your powerful A/C, classy fake wood grain, stain-resistant upholstery, and unbeatable gas mileage. Of course, there were a few door dings, bad parking attempts, muddy paw prints, and a spilled Coke or two along the way. But, overall, knowing you was simply lovely.
For six months, you’ve waited patiently in my parents’ driveway for my return. However, my homecoming is not imminent and I think it is time we call it quits. I want you to know that every Toyota rental car will remind me of the years we spent together. You have certainly set the bar high for all my future mid-priced, compact cars.
Forever Yours,
Leslie

You forgot to make that empty promise to always be friends.
I was talking with Corolla the other day while picking up Maddie and he told me he had a sneaking suspicion that you were cheating on him with MTA (http://leslieandthecity.blogspot.com/2007/12/tales-from-subway.html) or Liberty Deli (http://leslieandthecity.blogspot.com/2008/02/ode-to-liberty-deli.html).
It was a good ride while it lasted, eh?
