Still Got A Working Filter

I had a funny moment last night. I was on a different "level" and was thinking to myself and made a connection between two things. Cars and people. You know how the saying goes that pets of owners reflect the owner's personality? Well, I was thinking along those lines except with cars. Except cars don't necessarily reflect his or her owner's character. But cars definitely have personality. For example, I was sitting in Richard's Z and I felt very low to the ground, in a tight small spot, but still really secure. It was as if I felt like I was speeding through normality on the road and nobody could catch us. And then I think about how we all felt really comfortable in Caspar's old Lexus in high school, but I'm still not sure why that was the way we all felt. It must have something to do with the experiences that come with their own unique vibes and atmospheres that shaped Caspar's car into such an approachable portable home. Each driver's own individual taste in music also contributes to what kind of vibe you get when you get in the car. It's just that it's weird how a type of car could really impact and mold the entire group's mood and attitude of whatever destination is set and your state of mind during the trip to that destination. I wanted to tell Richard all of this but I thought it would sound stupid because even though I could process everything in my mind, I don't think I would have been as successful translating it into words. And now that I'm reflecting on it, it still sounds stupid. And the existence of this sad, pathetic blog post is purely dependent on this revelation. So what does this mean? This means that my filter ISN'T broken after all. HA!
