Okay, this is a bit silly, but I've wanted a Miata for quite some time, but my attempting to get into one would have likely become an embarrassing viral video.
Today, however, I took my parents' SUV in for service, and it wound up needing something that would take a couple of hours. So rather than watch daytime TV in the waiting area, I walked around the lot and checked out cars. In the used section there was a Fiat 124 with the top down. (Link to Wikipedia page if you want to see a photo)). I kind of looked at it, glanced around, and thought, hmmm, I wonder if I could fit yet. So I looked around again, resigned myself to giving anyone watching a chuckle, opened the door, and got in. To my surprise, I could get into a driving position and wouldn't be too cramped. I don't think it would work well with the top up, though. Nor was I feeling brave enough to ask a salesperson to take it for a spin. (I will have to go back tomorrow, though, as they didn't correctly fix the brakes).
Thus, for a moment, on what was a pretty cruddy day after an emotionally difficult weekend (disaster relief stuff), I got into a tiny car and felt proud at how far I've come.
