So yesterday was interesting. I drove alone from Sacramento to Long Beach in the 370 and I do not know if any of you have made that drive down I-5, but it is VERY dull. There is almost 200 miles of perfectly straight road -- 2 lanes each north and south.

Sometimes, you get lucky and you can hook up with one or two like-minded drivers who like to get the drive over with in as efficient and quick manner as possible (if you catch my drift). Yesterday was the case as I got in with a G-37 S and a Boxster. The Infiniti and I traded the lead back and forth while the Boxster pretty much stayed in third (by choice).

Anyway, I would occasionally glance back at the Boxster and think "Cool, a woman driving a Boxster and running hard". So, we kept this up for about 90 miles or so and it was fun. Mr. 9500ix talked to me a few times, but all was good and safe.

It speaks volumes to my stereotypes because nature called and I had to leave the highway and as I did, I waved to the Boxster. It was a guy driving it. It cracked me up.
