Bare and uncensored personal expression. Beware!!! |
I have a car. ![]() I actually expected a lot more anxiety getting back into the driver's seat after spending the last three months having not driven at all. I'm a nervous driver. I have to dump vitamin B on myself (usually a big bowl of Sustain cereal and a multivitamin tablet) just to get into a car. I hate driving and it's not because I'm a bad driver, I'm a great driver, I'm super cautious and probably frustrate a lot of drivers because of it. I'm not afraid I'm going to cause and accident, I'm afraid someone else is. I'm a little paranoid but in a sense it's a good thing. I've had my license nearly 6 years now (in August) and have never gotten a ticket or lost a demerit. I wonder if there is a no claim bonus on speeding tickets? ![]() But despite having not been behind the wheel in three months it wasn't as difficult to get there as I thought. And once I'd backed out of my driveway I was fairly well settled into the process again. lol just thought of something funny, I'm the only one in my immediate blood-line that hasn't knocked down a letterbox. It's our family innitiation to driving. My mother, brother and both sisters took out a letterbox at some time in their driving. Not me, I'm too cautious, and thankfully my letterbox isn't very close to the driveway. I'd have to take out a bushy tree to get to it. This weekend was pretty lazy. Since I didn't have the car till late Saturday we didn't go out at all. I stayed home and Kaylie played and watched a few videos much as she does most days. I played Divine Divinity. I got back into pretty quickly and I'm doing really well. It helps that I've ubered my character. For those of you not familiar with RPG's 'to uber' means to stack up the stats on strength and constitution, get the finest, hardest hitting, super weapon you can find, and kick-butt armour. 'An uber character' is basically a walking tank that cuts through the bad guys like cheese. DD (hereby DD stands for Divine Divinity) is pretty good. It's easier than some RPG's because while you might pick a warrior class you can learn the survivor (rogue) and the wizard skills too. So I have a warrior who is master of lock picking, pick pocketing, poison weapon, deadly gifts, and restoration. ![]() One problem with the game is that the shop keepers have stuff all money. I recently bought a house (in game not just out of game ![]() ![]() Anyway, it's fun and much better than sitting about berating myself for not writing. ![]() ![]() ![]() Anyway, a basic catch up since I haven't written an entry in a couple of days. (Sorry, *looks guilty* distracted from the whole writing thing at the moment.) Meanwhile, got to go walk Kaylie to school. (Notice I'm still walking her even though I've got access to a car? It's a beautiful day and the exercise is good for us.) ![]() |
