The ongoing Gwen Bell “Best of 2009″ idea continues with: The best place. A coffee shop? A pub? A retreat center? A cubicle? A nook?

As much as I love all the places I make into my own little hovels, my car always wins as best place.

Also since I paid her off this year, she has become a more inexpensive hovel.

I can listen to music as loud as I want, she never judges or complains about me to her parking lot friends, and I can let her get a little dirty without hurting her feelings.
