...it allowed me to fold myself up like a pretzel to get in and out of my compact car, whose driver's door and rear passenger doors are frozen shut because of our sub-zero weather!
I don't care so much about looking like a doofus climbing in and out like that, but if I physically couldn't , I wouldn't even be able to drive my car to work!
Oh yeah! I used to complain bitterly about those doofuses who left me enough room to use a canopener to get into my car in a parking lot. I've had times when hubby had to back the car out of a spot just so I could squeeze my big butt in, cursing bitterly at the car next to us and wanting to leave a nasty note. That no longer bothers me for some reason.
Another reason to exercise regularly....
that's quite the NSV
