Liberals, Wimps, and A Driving Test Pt I.

Yesterday was the Frank Church convention. I had no idea it would be a screaming Liberal event. While I consider myself a Democrat, I won't say that I'm liberal in the least. Not that I didn't enjoy the event, because I did greatly. Sitting in uncomfortable chairs for 6 hours listening to crusty old men drone on about Russia, Ukraine and Obama was a blast. I will say there was a marvelous selection of ties. It figures. Leave it to the most girlie girl in the room to check out the tie flavors. Cute.

OK, ok, don't even say anything, I already know, I'm a complete wimp. My niece once said to me that "[I am] the wimpiest girl [I] have met in my whoooooooooole life!" And for good reason! I got up this morning with a baseball in my torso where some organs should have been. It was hard, painful, and completely cramped. I was going to go to school however. Not that I looked fantastic or anything, but my hair was so amazing! I get to school after bribing myself into the car, try not to think of the boulder in my thorax. On the commute to school, I distract my feng shui by playing with the radio more than usual. A different story entirely. When I get to the front steps, I remember the offensive rubble, and drive home as fast as I legally can. Once home, I change into my hot pink starred fleece pajama pants and crawl into my cthonic as fast as I could. Four hours later, the baseball had turned into a golf ball, and had condensed to proportionately the same size. Unhappily, as the day progressed, so did the shrinkage of some organs. Cramps stink.

Even though I was a complete wuss about going to school, I found it in me to take the first part of my driving test. Woo hoo! I missed two pieces of [non]vital information, the first would be when pulling out onto a street from a parallel park, I "forgot" to turn on my blinker, EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO ONE IN THE ENTIRE STREET. Psh. Overrated. The second was engaging the parking break, ON LEVEL GROUND. Nice. How could I forget to do that? Were I in San Fran, that would be an understandable deduction. But in Boise Idaho?! Yeah. Logical. Actually I'm just bitter. :D So.... I take the second half tomorrow after school. Wish me luck!

Unfortunately, I suppose I'm out to crash land my brain for the evening. I guess I'll see if I'm alive enough to go to school tomorrow. As of now, I'm thinking no. But whatev. Things can change. Not that they have, but maybe they could. Ha. Who am I kidding? :D Cheers!
