Unhappy The Highs & Lows of No SVX

Its been a week since the front diff went, so...

Highs
>barely have used 1/4 tank of regular gas in a week...
>driving stick
>not having to take 2 buses to work, 4 times a day (split shifts)

Lows SVX withdrawal symptoms including, but not restricted to:
>calling the tranny shop to check visiting hours
>waking up and thinking I'll go for a drive before realization hits
>buying a lenses cleaning kit for when she comes home
>mechanic telling you they're pulling her into the shop at night, and you're
jealous 'cause they get to drive her
>little old lady leaps out in front of me and I forget I have to pump the
brakes cause its the Sprint
>other drivers cutting me off cause its the Sprint and no one takes you
seriously
>no power
>buying new tires for the Sprint and still not feelin' it
>no intermittent wipers, let alone speed sensitive ones, and its the rainy
season
>forgetting, for a second, that its not the SVX and trying to pass the jerk
who cut you off
>tin can stereo with no CD
>looking out at the driveway and sighing, which is driving your husband/son
crazy
