curb your enthusiam. please.
i dropped off my car today for service, and was given a rental for the day. as i was discussing my car options with the agent, she beamed widely as she offered me my choice of convertibles.
i turned to look out the window at the downpour outside, raised an eyebrow and replied in my familiar smirking sarcasm, "oh yes, excellent--a convertible! either one is fine."
i'm back in a suit today, which is my sad-ass excuse for deflating the poor woman's enthusiasm for her offer.
