drunk blogging

yes, i know i've never done this before because i've never had dsl on my fingertips at times like these. actually, i've never been this drunk and gone home like thisin a long, long time. so this really is a first time for many things.

i'll come driving as fast as wheels can turn

in my post-strama to-do list i toyed with the idea of resuming the actuarial track, and i finally took the first step. in another incarnation of the list, i noted another item that needed immediate attention: driving lessons.

after 15 years, i'm finally doing it.

i've finished 6 of the contracted 10 hours of lessons. and i'm proud to have survived slex exit traffic last saturday, and going 60 kph on the national highway yesterday, with no liabilities. all that's left is practice, practice, and more practice. cross-fingers.

this doesn't mean that i'm no longer scared of getting involved in a traffic skirmish, especially if traffic police is involved. *shudder*

theme song: eraserheads, overdrive. linlin and i couldn't help but look at each other when ely sang that very appropriate line during 030709:

plis, plis lang turuan nyo akong mag-drive
gusto kong matutong mag-drive (kahit na wala akong kotse)
gusto kong matutong mag-drive (kahit na walang lisensya)
