Bye Bye Super Bitch


A new era begins in the McGowin household. Joseph's red '93 Toyota truck went "bye-bye", and has been replaced by a new Toyota Tacoma. Your departure was bitter sweet for Joseph. He has many fond memories involving the truck, including many excursions into the woods with his Brittany, Taylor, and long trips to Mississippi. Joseph recently reminded me of our nick name for the old truck, "Super Bitch", which derived from a sticker on the hitch, "Super Hitch". I originally thought it said "super bitch" and when we first started dating I often wondered why he would have a sticker that said "super bitch".

Well, Super Bitch, thank you for treating my husband so well for the last 10 years. Thank you for hauling our sh*t up the mountain to our newest home. Thank you for making our Bonnaroo experience perfect. Thank you for allowing Bailey to poop in the back of you on almost every outing. Thank you for allowing Ella to rip your screens time and time again. Thank you for teaching me how to get a car to start by pushing it down a hill and "popping" it into second gear, or something like that. Thank you for allowing us to skip your much needed vacuuming and cleaning sessions, and for allowing our dogs' hairs to pile up in your cab. Thank you for showing me how much fun driving an old truck can be, and last but not least, thank you for being the modest friend you were to me, and for being the real reason I married my husband. I love you and you will always be missed!
