Back to Reality
Back from a great weekend up in the Idaho wilderness. Pictures and stories (Bears! Rattlers!) coming soon, aka as soon as I can find my camera cable.
In Boise now, spending time with B & J before I head down to Salt Lake.
So we're at the house and B mentions something about stick shift cars. I grumble that I don't know how because people keep offering to teach me and then never doing it. We get into the car to meet J and some friends for dinner. B stops the car on a side street, opens the door.
B: OK, you're driving.
S: ... ... OK!
And then I drove around for a bit on the residential streets of Boise. Only stalled out once or twice when I had to stop on an upward incline and watch for traffic. I need to practice some more, but shoot, hey, I can sorta kinda do it now. SWEET!
In other news, the real world is kind of a pain right now. Last-minute work stuff, bills, errands, bills, rent, insurance, ugh.
