Heh, I can understand your excitement!  My parents are going on a 
month-long vacation in a few weeks, which means that I get the driveway 
and garage all to myself for that month!  I'm trying to pick up a second 
SHO by the time they leave so that I can have a project car and make 
good use of the garage during that time.

...Normally my parents start nagging me about my car being in the 
driveway if I leave it there for more than a couple hours for minor 
maintenance...
