I got my permit now, still a bit uncomfortable though... My ma is so mean, she made me merge on the first time I drove in traffic, I about throttled her... But I actually did rather awesome at it xd
So far I only drove our intrepid, not our other one, which is nearly dead... Speaking of which, it broke down 2 weeks ago, it died in one of the biggest intersections in town, in the middle of a turn, thankfully we only had one car behind us (which is odd in itself considering it was rush hour) and they weren't stupid (even odder) and they let us coast to the shoulder of the road... After a few unsuccessful tries, we managed to get it restarted again and somehow with my sister's weird and her extremely roundabout way managed to get us off the main roads and we died at her work... of all the places to die at, it was rather convenient, we called dad, he simply said to fill it with water and if that didn't work he would get us...
We decided to let it cool off and ate at the fast food restraunt not 30 ft. from her work then went and went to the damages in her work, grabbed a easter bucket and saved our cups from our meal and filled all with water and I couldn't help but tease my sis as she had to walk through her workplace lugging this huge pansy-pink bucket full of water... It was hilarious... We managed to get the car going again and took the back routes or whatever home. We had noticed that everytime we turned, or stopped and started again is when she died so we had to run all the stop signs or get stuck in the middle of a spooky subdivision in the middle of the night... we got to the light right before we got to the house and it was red. It is the longest light in town, literally... So we were waiting for it to change and the car started rattling so hard that the entire area around the radio vibrated like mad, making things fall out of the cubby holes and then something kicked under the roof and we started smoking so bad we couldn't see the car parked 3 ft. behind us no one was coming from the other way and we knew it was gonna die any second, and the intersection and the turn into the driveway would be impossible for us to push it in because of the hill and everything and the light was simply refusing to change. There we were, not 50 ft from home, stuck at a red light, and our car dieing fast. We had to run it and just as the car cleared the turn into our driveway and the headlights hit the bushes it died.
We got out glanced back and could see a huge trail of smoke from the light to our house and the other car still sitting there... it was close, but we managed to get home, and luckily everyone seemed to understand we were forced to run the light, cause they didn't call the cops on us.
A week or so later dad came over to check out the car and found out that the radiator hose had disconnected and the radiator had been bone dry for a very long time, he fixed it and all is pretty ok now, but man, that was one hell of a night... I had to push the 2 ton car by myself cause my sis had to stear and brake...
Today we went to the movies, me, my sis, mille, steven, and dad. We all seen Ice Age 2. I loved it. It was a really good movie, especially for a sequel *mumbles about disney sequels* thank goodness the movie was made by Pixar, they know what they are doing... anyway, when we had left the movies, me and my sis in our dieing car and dad in his ridiculus van, we ended up side by side at the lights, and dad, being the odd man that he is started making funny faces and gestures, and in a silly, silent way, challenged heather to racing when the light changed. Dad being a race car driver and all, he loves to race and drive and all... he started revving the van, mockingly acting ghetto behind the wheel, in a pimping style or whatever, and arragantly challenging us. My sis nodded at him and we all couldn't help laughing, seeing as how we were both driving really crappy cars and were acting all serious and attempting to drag race. mrgreen
When the light changed, both of our cars pratically died and kicked and we both started moving slowly, omg, it was ridulously hilarious, I couldn't stop laughing, rofl sometimes I really love my family, especially dad, he is just so silly sometimes... xd
