::]:: Drivin' ::[::

So I don't think I've mentioned this but after a couple years of not having my driver's license I friggin paid the State of Ohio that for that damned ticket I got on a swing trip and whoo-woo! I'm back on the road!!

So I've been driving Dad's 3000GT for most of the weekend...just here and there...man - I can't wait for a real road trip. I remember when my Pops got the GT. I fuckin hated it. I friggin HATE WIDE ASS cars. And the damn car is really really impractical for Pops who previously had an S10 pickup. My Pops is a handy man of all sorts however, he also likes speed. He always has since he was really little. He tells stories of loving being on speding cars in the Philippines... pretty dangerous stuff folks, trust me. This can also explain his long list of moving violations. So I'd wrote off the GT as mid-life crisis thing AND something my sister Hedds conjoled my Pops into getting...

Though for a long time I'd refuse to drive the damn thing much less ride in it if I had a choice, I do enjoy driving it. It handles really well, so smooth and well, I do get incredible compliments too. I know that's one of the reasons my Dad likes it too. He loves the looks he gets. So like a guy.... but back to the driving. I am SO grateful that my Pops taught me and my sisters how to drive shift-stick.. its kinda neat that we have this appreciation and ability with cars that not a lot of girls get to have unless they have a Pops just as cool as mine or an understanding bf willing to teach them.
