Lara’s new job gave her a case of new car fever, which she used as an excuse to secure a VW beetle, which she’s long coveted.
Not surprisingly, Spiney opted for the aquarius blue version. Hmm.
I keep a gorilla mask in the glove compartment that I wear when I have to be seen in it with her …
I’ve posted a few photos of her in the new car on my Flickr account.

Sweet bug. What’s the new job? Congratulations, Lara!
Ultra cool! Love the color and the drop top…
So what’s te new gig?
She’s VP/editorial for Scripps Networks online.
sweet! i look forward to a ride… soon!
Awesome, tell her I said congrats!
Uhhh…who wears the gorilla mask when you’re up on the ladder cleaning those leaves out of that gutter 😉
Sorry, couldn’t resist…
Lara, welcome to the Bug Sisterhood! And this is a sisterhood, honey, because no straight man would be caught dead at the wheel of one of these babies. This is a total chick mobile. This does not mean Beetles are girly cars. My 2002 Turbo Bug blows most muscle cars off I-10; it’s got a 150 hp Audi engine, a total rrrriot girl car.
More importantly than my Bug’s engine specs, though, is the color: Sundown Orange. When people gape at my little orange race car, I tell them I watched too much Dukes of Hazzard while I was an impressionable teen-ager.
Yeehaw.
Way to go, Lara! Glad to hear about the new job AND the new car.
