Tales of the Freckles

Apr 13, 2004 13:13

My car "Pete" a 91 Honda Accord is gone. Pete was named because every so often i would have to yell "OH FOR PETE'S SAKE!" To get the stupid ting to start. But that is beside the point. Pete has run off to Waco, TX with my step-sister Lindsay. I'm over Pete. Now i have Freckles.
Freckles is a 91 Toyota Camery (91 as a good year). And a sickshift.
SO i have been dirving Freckles for 5 days and in that time i have stalled it 4 times(twice this morning) and been honked at at least once everyday. I am beginnng to discover that people are MEAN and impatient on the road.
On friday i was driving to work, when the light on Texas and Bay Area turned green i was a little slow at getting started, so the guy behind me honked. The guy behind me was a STATE TROOPER! Are they even suppose to know how to use thier horns? I thought they were suppose to be kind and courtious and not freak out poor teenage drivers who are trying their darndest to get going. I guess i was wrong. Stupid state trooper.
Now I just ignore the idiots. I'm pretty certain that they would much rather that i take my time instead of getting in an accident in front of them and taking THEIR time. It is annoying though.
I would go get a Watermelon Snow cone... but i would have to drive, and that doesn't seem like such a great idea right now. I could get honked at again... or stall the car for a 3rd time today.
Today i am going to go see Ella Enchanted with Colleen. I don't know how good the movie will be, but i still want to see it. The book is really great though.

cars, driving
