Our friend, Molly, started driver's ed this week. As we reminisced about Julianne's first driving experiences, we decided to make a list of comments Molly can use if she finds herself braking too hard...to try to save face.
Oh, we also suggested she write these on her hand/arm so she has them handy when she needs them. I'm sure perusing the list to choose the perfect one to use while she's driving isn't all that unsafe...
Molly, if you're reading this, maybe you'd better just commit them to memory.
- "Just checking to make sure the seat is locked in."
- "The tail hook caught!"
- "Now we all know how inertia works."
- "Seat belt functionality? Check!"
- Squeal excitedly, then say "I've missed Cedar Point!"
- "Sorry, I thought I was pushing the clutch."
- "I'm just trying to wake up that kid in the back seat."
- "Did you know my dad's a whiplash insurance salesman?"
- "I was trying to keep us from becoming a crash statistic."
- Look at the teacher and ask "What'd you do that for?"
