off-island state of mind

home is an island.

drive

last week i unwillingly spent money to replace the brakes on the car i've had for four years...with already 183k miles on the odometer all i could think was if those brakes would actually outlast the rest of the car. on a whim i inquired about a prius that i didn't think i'd own a day later.  and now here's to the next 200k+ miles of my life to be spent on my new (pre-owned) prius.

driving has always been a huge part of my life because i rarely work where i live and live where i work.  the last time that happened was when i actually lived in guam.  i used to have the luxury of walking to the office because my apartment building was right next to it.   when i moved to guam in 2007, i actually shipped my vw golf back home.  it remained there to "retire" when i returned to the mainland and true story, i befriended the new owner on facebook!  i wish i could relive all the memories with that car and now it's onto uninhibited fuel consumption with this car.

mimi from guam

  • about me
      *off-island* refers to the state of being away from the island of guam. you can now follow my spin-off food blog, off-is land influence food refelections

      from my lush homeland to the city by the bay and into the far reaches of the suburbs, i've made my home twice. it was fun in my 20's and even better in my 30's. documenting it all makes me feel important (to myself). here you'll find my multi-tasking adventures with food and the fashionable, my love affair with my dvr, an occasional moment of profound thought, a lot of useless yet laughable ranting, and lately stuff about my life in constant re-arrangement. i'm only fab-ulous because it's in my name.
