Learning to Drive Again
After about eight years of having my driver's license, I've ventured into learning to drive a stick-shift/standard. Is there a proper name for those cars anyway?
Hubby has had this kind of car before, but I'd never cared to learn to handle the darn thing. As it turns out, however, my van has been giving me a lot of problems these last couple of months. So, it was necessary that I drive the hubby's car.
Now, I'm not one to stress easily, but I tell you, driving that thing sure stresses me out. I'd come home with a headache after driving it for even a few minutes. This went on for a couple of weeks. The funny thing is that, while it stressed me to no end, I also had a lot of fun with it. I'd literally drive and laugh my head off while the car gave me whiplash, shut off on me, and scared my kids half to death.
But, I've overcome the evil little four-wheeler. I've triumphed! What an accomplishment!
Now, if I could just convince my mom that it's safe to ride with me.
