Just got home from taking mom to her 24 hour check up after her cataract surgery yesterday.

Yesterday while she was at the clinic, I went to a local cafe/diner and stayed there until the clinic called to come pick her up. There was this little game called IQ Tester on the table. I asked the waitress Rose to explain to me how it worked. I solved it once but couldn't do it again. That was frustrating. Maybe I'm not as smart as I think I am. :x

Anyway, so I went back to the diner again today while mom had her check up. Rose was working again and even though she was not my waitress today, first thing she asked how mom's surgery went and how she's doing.

It was early in the day both days so not too busy and we had time to chat.

When I left today I told her, "Rose, It was really great meeting you. Thank you for asking about my mom. I hope I never have to see you again." She understood what I meant and laughed. :laughing

P.S. Before any of you ask "Was she?" Yes she fucking was. Probably the prettiest lady I've talked to in a few months. If I lived anywhere near here, I would have shot my shot and asked her out on a date.
 
Today was a 'twofer'. Mom's 2nd car has been at the Temecula Lexus dealership for a week or so getting that sorted. And that was just about 5 miles away from the clinic where she had her surgery and they just happened to be done with the work today so we picked up the car.

I had a lot of fun talking with the service manager that's been handling the car. His name is Adam. I told him, "I hope this is not weird but I feel like I already know you because almost every time you were on the phone with my mom, I was listening." He says, "ah, so you were the person in the background." DON'T MAKE IT WEIRD.

We talked a lot about Supras after I told him I've had 2 Supras, 2 MR-2s, and a Corolla. Showed him some pics of my Supras. Some kid who I'm assuming was someone's assistant overheard the conversation and was interested. Understood everything we were talking about. I was surprised and high fived him. I don't expect kids these days to understand 90s Japanese sports cars to that level.

I was kinda surprised they had an LFA in the show room. It's a 15 year old car but it's a fucking awesome car that put a lot of exotic cars to shame in performance. I told Adam I think the LFA is the best thing Toyota has done in the past 20 years. He agreed.

Adam said he's not a fan of the new Supra because it was a Toyota/BMW project. I was like... you fucking purist, you sound like some of my other Supra friends. :laughing As a former Supra owner, I like the new Supra. I test drove one awhile ago. It checked all the boxes for me.

All in all, it was great to talk shop with someone that's been just as balls deep in Japanese sports cars as I am.

Past two days have been a lot of fun talking with strangers. What did Tyler Durden call them in Fight Club when he was on the plane all the time? Single serving friends. That's what I've been doing.
 
I'm with your friend. It's like a roush mustang, thinking it's somehow a roush and not a mustang. The car is a bmw and then toyota did some stuff.

You can have the same opinion as Adam and you're entitled to it.

My pushback is one of the best things about the MK4 Supra is the transmission is iconic amongst the Supra and car community because people have reliably built cars up to 1000+hp needing no more than a stronger clutch. The Getrag V160 was a German transmission. So acting like the new Supra is not a Supra because it was a Toyota/BMW project, I don't get that.

Don't test me on Supra knowledge, byke. :p
