in the fast lane

So, there are two driving-related things I wanted to discuss today. First off, my brother and I signed up for motorcycle classes Saturday. The classes were booked all the way through to August, so my class doesn’t start until August 10th. Still, I’m really excited about learning to ride a motorcycle. While I currently am in no position to buy a bike, I do have my eye on a Honda 599, I think standard bikes look sexy. Come August, if I had the cash, I’d probably invest in a used 2004 model that I can get my feet wet with. Should be fun!

Now, concerning my current driving situation… I got pulled over tonight. It is Super Bowl Sunday, so the cops were out in full force. I actually had a few drinks, but had stopped a couple hours before leaving to go home. The guy didn’t even pull me over for suspicion of drinking and driving. I had a tail-light out. Either way, he asked if I had anything to drink, so I was honest and told him I did. As a result, I took my first breathalyzer test. I was kinda apprehensive, since I was not sure if I’d given myself enough time to let the alcohol run through my system (I felt fine, but that doesn’t mean I’m below the legal limit). Either way, he just let me go with a warning to get the light fixed.

So I left unscathed… whoo… with that, I sleep…
