Delaware Evos!

Yeah, yeah, I know, I own a Subaru, and I'm on a Mitsubishi site.

Anyway, I've been "scanning" a bit, just reading around. I'm actually from Maryland, but unfortunately, my grandmother passed on October 1, so I'm in Delaware for a funeral on Tuesday.

Yesterday, I decided to take a spin, and came in contact with a yellow stock appearing Evolution in Wilmington, Delaware (I'm originally from DE). He was travelling down Limestone Road, and eventually made his way on to Rt 1 by Christiana Mall. He had a "Mach V" sticker in the rear window, and I believe he was travelling with his child.

Anyway, just wondering if he were someone from here. We exchanged waves, and parted ways. Very nice car! I just wanted to give some props.

If he reads this, I was the guy in the STi (blue/gold wheels) with the MD plates.

Hey man, thanks for the condolences. We actually just got back from the funeral. Tough day.

I probably won't be up to Delaware for a few weeks. My parents live close to the Christiana Mall area. They live in a neighborhood off Kirkwood Hwy.

The next time I'm up to Delaware, I'd be more than happy to meet up!

Thank you, Todd. Much appreciated.

I'm actually leaving for home today (probably at about 5 or 6pm), and normally we go through Newark and down Elkton Rd, just to avoid the toll. Maybe I'll see ya if you're out! I have a blue STi/gold wheels and MD plates (obviously).

Thanks, man! I'll be sure to let you guys know the next time I'm in the area. Hopefully the next time it will be under better circumstances.

Lil red' 03, I'm sorry, but I'm not sure who Lindsey is.

I am sorry for your loss as well. It's never easy, especially if it's someone dear to you.

My grandmother was one of those people that always made everyone feel like #1. You could do no wrong in her eyes. She made everyone feel like the favorite. She was a wonderful person, and it's not going to be easy to let go. I have a real rocky journey ahead of me, and unfortunately, it's not something that I can just run away from. It won't matter where I go or what I do. The thought of her will always be there.

The only thing I can say is that I'm just going to try to keep busy, so I don't think about it so much. I'm just emotionally spent. I've been living in Hell for the past few weeks. Here's a recap of my past two weeks:

1. 12 hour ride home from Wisconsin, and wife and I argue entire way home.

2. When returning rental car same evening as coming home from Wisconsin, get a speeding ticket.

3. Camaro's $2000 transmission just blows up with no warning, with less than 26,000 miles on it.

4. My grandmother died.

5. The morning that my grandmother died, I decide to start up the Camaro, and turn on windshield wipers to clear the dirty windshield, just for "something to do." The windshield wipers quit working (the piece of sh*t breaks even when I'm NOT driving it).

6. On the way to Delaware on Saturday (when grandmother died) I have a rock fly up and put a nice quarter-sized ding in my hood.

7. I attended my grandmother's funeral today.

At this point, I'm not sure anything else could possibly go wrong. I just feel like I keep getting kicked in the nuts one time after the next.

I know the feeling bro - just keep your head up. Things will eventually get better.

Lindsey is Fiesty - read the "extremely important" thread - very sad

Sorry, only Evos and STis. Nobody else.

Just kidding, man.

Damned shame I'm not up this weekend.
