Standing On Boxes

I’ve only had the car for a month and a half….
It has “leatherette” (Or do they call that pleathur?)seats (basically, a layer of pureed leather particles glued to vinyl.
The seats look really good for a 8 year old car with so many miles.( I suspect they aren’t the original seats.)
Or they did…
It seems that whenever I get in the car, my hips hit the side bolster on those fancy sports seats. (I’m a wide person (No, not fat, just wide (mostly)) And that seems to have a detrimental affect on that part of the seat. It’s worn the leather coating thru in that spot. And there’s a tear next to the spot.
So, my choices –>

1. Drive naked so my clothes don’t rub against the leather (uhmm… no. Scary thought! Most likely illegal anyway.)
2. Tape? Or something to protect that spot.
3. Some kind of car cover
4. Real leather seats.Iwonder if there’s a junkyard around here…

I think I’ll go with the car cover. If I can find one that’ll fit that style of seat. Or maybe something that protects JUST that part of the seat? Like a band of material around it?(Hmmm…. how would it attach?)

Okay –

Updated ‘Ms. Kite” with the two parts I just updated on “TtH” and a basic outline for the following part. I hope to get back to it before the end of the year but I need to do some research on Stars Hollow and its denizens first.

Oops… the links for parts 6 and 7 are now correct in the story index.

Finally updated the next part (2) of the “The Other Girl” – “The Burrow” with some bits and pieces I’ve had lying around. Not a huge change but closer to being finished.
Next up? Time to close my eyes and throw a dart. I want to finish off SOMEthing before the end of the month (something short – to be realistic). Not sure what. Yet.
