Well its still winter and usually by this time of the season I am completely certifiable. However I did have the opportunity to see some of my summer family last weekend. While my parents were so lavishly enjoying their Fort Myers vacation on behalf of yours truly, I was enjoying cheap beer and nachos at Kristen's birthday party / housewarming party. (Matt and Kristen just moved into their new house. They have a surprising amount of stuff for a couple that just got married) So after 7 years of racing I realized I always engage in the same conversation...
Did you work on your car?
"No, no, haven't started working on my car yet..."
OMG Joon, what have you been up to?
Response to guys: "Dude, nothing much, you know, just fucking hanging out and shit."
Response to girls or wives: "Keeping busy, you know, just trying to stay out of trouble." I always try and curb the lude/rude talk.
Any question in regards to work, women, or setting me up with their friends is usually answered with...
"Please, don't ask" or "I have no idea" or "can we change the subject"
Without failure, these themes and conversations echo every off season. The familial I would have to admit is both comforting and disturbing but like racing I do cherish the consistency.
