Do you ever think about how one small idea can influence so much?
Eight years ago today I was so excited about turning 18 simply so I could get my license and obtain some freedom. As fate would have it, I was given a learner's permit due to the Trooper's thought that I was not yet ready to drive solo.
I began driving my mom's Ford Explorer all over the place with Chris as my learned driver as was required by my permit.
Once we began hitting the road, it quickly became apparent that we were limited on things that we could do. From this plight arose a singular question whom's answer would influence the lives of many people I knew or would come to know. What was this question you may ask? It was "What the hell can we do now?"
The answer to this question came from the thought of someone I had only met twice. The guy seemed cool enough, and finding the place where we had only been once seemed fun at the time. We headed off to find Mathew Coon's house.
From this single idea stemmed many occurrences, some for good, some for worse. This idea led to Londy befriending Sueanne, Londy working at eckerds, Sueanne moving in beside Londy's parents (which Kim would start coming over too), Kim and Chris meeting one another, the eventual fallout that we shall not speak of, and countless other happenings that have not been mentioned or may never be known.
All from a single idea conjured by the mind of bored teenager looking for something to fill a few moments of his life...
