How to handle Boxster withdrawal during winter months

I purchased my Boxster last November and had the chance to drive it a little before winter set in (and it was a rough winter in New England).

My original plan was once spring came to drive the Boxster a few days a week to work etc... Once spring came (and summer, and then early fall) I ended up driving the Boxster every day. My ride to work is 1.5 hours each way and using a twisty back road route made that time with the Boxster very enjoyable - it was too good not to drive the Boxster.

Now that Fall is back - frosty mornings, wet leaves cluttering the road, time change means pitch black drives home, etc - I put the Boxster to sleep for the winter.

This past week was the first driving to work in my other car (which my son had used all spring and summer) and it's just not the same. I realized there would be some drop off (it's just a plain old Dodge Avenger, gets me from point A to point B with no frills).

I am now officially suffering from Boxster withdrawal.... I may get the chance to drive it here and there on the weekend, but am not planning to drive it to work again until spring.

I'm sure I cannot be the first to experience this withdrawal - how have others handled this in the past?
