Note: I'm not quite sure what to title this piece. I'm torn between these titles:

"Shitbox Shenanigans"

"Just Jeep Things"

"A Wild Jeep in its Natural Habitat"

"That's not Our Tow Strap, Is It?"

"That's not the Clutch, is it?"

"Snow Wheelin"

"Whose Bad Idea Was This?"

"Where the hell even are we?"

Twenty years old. Just the thought of turning twenty years old makes me woozy. Yet, I have officially been on this earth for two long decades. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it for eternity; I did not expect to live this long.
