ashinae | Sigh. Poor puppy :(

One of the boys from our October litter has come back to us. The couple who bought him spoiled him rotten, bought him all sorts of neat things, but their daughter didn't like him and wouldn't play with him. Now we need to find a good home for an older puppy. Poor little guy! :(

1. How old were you when you got your drivers license?
Seventeen. I waited a good year becuase I was totally messed up at sixteen and didn't want my freakiness getting in the way of driving sensibly. Dying behind the wheel isn't appealing to me.

2. Did you get your own car right away, use the family car, or bum rides from friends?
Couldn't afford my own car and my parents surely wouldn't get one for me! I used one of the family cars, a '94 crap-ass red Ford Tempo. Did I mention it's a craptacular car? It's craptacular. I can't take it out on highways. Taking it out on roads with a speed limit of 80kmph is still iffy. Oy. Anyway, as it turns out, I hate, hate, hate driving. Hate. So I'd much rather bum rides from friends (*looks fondly at

deerdancer and

sara_elf*) or get the parents to drive for me.

3. What was your first car and what was it like?
See #2. Did I mention that it's a really crappy car? It has squeaky breaks! When it's not cold! We've had two of these cars before and they both fell apart! Why did they get another Tempo!

4. How old were you when you got your first traffic ticket and what happened?
Haven't! Thank god...

5. What is your favorite car story, be it an accident, road trip, etc?
Hmmmmm. Well, my favourite car, the car that is dear to me, is

deerdancer's ex-car, a red Dynasty. I miss the Dynasty! ♥ the Dynasty.

But I think my favourite car-related tale is those long drives with

sara_elf and my parents, in our youth (mine and

sara_elf's, not my parents, duh). They took us to a lot of flea markets and various places where you'd be in the car for at least a half-hour. Sara had this fun habit of rolling down the window, half-sticking her head out, and "wagging" her ponytail behind her head. Just like a dog's tail. I think she may have panted as well. She's a silly girl. I ♥ her so.
