whoo hoo...

 

This was only my second lesson, and I was driving on the streets...

The first time I stalled half the time...

 

Tonight I only stalled once!

But that was because some idiot pulled out really fast and I braked fast...

 

Still need practice, but it was fun...except for that stupid hill....

repulsed

 

 

You learning to drive a stick shift?

 

I don't drive at all, but I did take Driver's Ed and so I know HOW to drive.  But never even tried on a stick.

Yea...my sister bought her own car at 19, a stick shift, so she had my dad teach her every day for two weeks....

 

I have only had two lessons, and already I am driving...

I thought it would take me like 4 or 5 times to get to that point....

 

For manual....I convinced my parents to let me practice in parking lot, then side streets, then they let me drive around...after a close call with the po-po..i got my permit...and just got my license thursday....

yay for me!

:P

 

Your

 

 

 

Congratulations, both on your license and on your stick-shift progress!

 

My parents, friends, and others keep pressing me to get my license, but I really don't like driving.  Plus, I won't be able to afford a car for a long time, and it's not like my parents can buy me one.  So basically getting my license wouldn't do me too much good in the long run anyway.  Plus, I prefer being a pedestrian.  It's more refreshing.

rankled

 

lol..thanks...

 

I probably won't get a car for awhile either...but my parents are old and I get to drive them around...

and if they don't have any doctors appointments or aren't using it...then I can most likely use it...

walking is refreshing too...I had to walked three blocks in the rain (i got off at the wrong bus stop..lol) and it wasn't too bad....

Demonic

 

As long as you're suitably prepared for the weather, or protected enough from the harsher elements, it's wonderful to walk.  Walking in the rain is okay, provided you either A) have an umbrella or B) have a good raincoat or poncho.  Walking in the snow kind of sucks when it's already in a layer on the ground, because then your pant legs and shoes and socks get soaked, but the snow falling itself isn't bad as long as you have something to protect you from the cold weather.

The walk was nice...buuuuut

1. My stupid umbrella kept inverting....then I forgot it on the bus...

2. I only had a long sleeve shirt...no jacket of any kind...

 

I have never seen snow..and I really want to....

NEVER SEEN SNOW? :o

 

Well, I guess I can understand that.  My mom had never seen snow for herself till she moved out here to Iowa with my dad and me and my soon-to-be-born brother.  She grew up in southern California.

 

We get ice storms sometimes, too.  The trees and grass look gorgeous afterward, but a lot of damage is done in ice storms.  Power can go out, trees can crack and split and leave huge branches all over the road...

another 't'...

grrr...

 

We were gonna go to the mountains a few years back..but my mom got scared...but now, if we try to go without her, we are being mean...so w/e...I'll have to wait...

Cool, hope you brother is healthy...

 

So, you live in the Borderlands...where it is cold enough for trees to split?

And you get continual Trolloc raids?

 

lol

Elk

 

 

:D Oh, no, my parents moved out here to Iowa years ago.  I was a year old when we moved.  My brother is now 17, and there are 5 more siblings that have come since. :D  The youngest one turns 4 in January. :)  Sorry for not being very clear. >.<

 

Well, it's not THAT cold, and the trees don't split in that way, no.  Not that I've seen, anyway.  If by "trolloc raids" you mean WAY TOO MANY DEER ON THE ROADS, then yeah. ;)

Ked

 

lol...oh...you made is sound like your mom was preggo...

 

Deer!

get a lot of venison dinners?

Depart

 

Maybe we would if anyone in my family was a hunter, but as far as I know, no one I'm related to has a hunting license.

lol...

u don't need a license...

just "hit" it "accidently"...

then volunteer to take it home and get it off the road....

mmm...dinner!

Telekinetic

 

You lost the game.

 

Not to mention, no one with a shred of a brain would "accidentally-on-purpose" hit a deer.  They do a lot of damage, even to the sturdier or larger vehicles.

 

People who live in Iowa know that when deer population is high, driving carefully is important.  Deer are dangerous.

crap

 

lol...i hate going on DM on my phone...it just isn't the same...

 

did I say to hit it with  car? no silly...

u hit it with a bullet...

 

my aunt lives in michigan...i think she almost hit some big animal with her car once....

did I say to hit it with  car? no silly...

u hit it with a bullet...

Okay, seriously, no need to be patronizing.  You said:

 

just "hit" it "accidently"...

then volunteer to take it home and get it off the road....

Last I checked, most people don't go hunting or carrying a gun around right by the road.  They go into the woods for that kind of thing.  Don't know how I could've known you meant "accidentally-on-purpose shoot it" when you said "get it off the road" later.

lol...

you could hit it with a bullet on the road...

i think your problem is that of assumption...

;D

That gets a lot of people...

Yammer

 

Sorry to be blunt, but you have been irritating the heck out of me nonstop for as long as you've been around.

 

Not having any sort of experience in my life that would've led me to think anything other than what I did is not a "problem," nor is it "assumption."  It is just the way things are.  I can't help it if my brain didn't know that you could've meant anything other than what I thought you meant.
