Emancipation

So some things have happened in the past week that have put me back on track and will make life a lot easier. First off, I got my driver license just a month shy of my 17th birthday. About damn time. Fuck. I thought I'd never get that thing. I also got a new cell phone. It's pretty sweet; it's called the G'zOne (geez - one) by Casio.

We changed from AT&T to Verizon because AT&T was going to charge us extra to change our plan. We were paying $150 a month and last month we used a whole 7 minutes, so my mom told them to forget about it, and we switched to Verizon wireless, and I have to say I love the new phone. My phone meets military requirements; it's very rugged, very durable, waterproof, sandproof, whatever-proof. I read a review, and the guys tested it in whatever way they could. They slammed it on concrete and it held up, they made calls underwater and could here the other person just fine, and even the bluetooth worked while it was in a vase full of water. They also put it in a bag of flour, shook it up, washed it off, and it worked fine. It's kind of bulky, but nothing that'll get in the way. It's grown on me a lot, and it even has a flashlight.

Moving on to me getting my license. I was glad I didn't get the old hag that has a personal vendetta against every teenager trying to get their license. I got this pretty cool cop, Byers I think was his name. The first thing I did when I backed up was run over the little curb in the parking lot that had the flowers and shit in them. Yeah...not a good start, but it was funny, because he was like, "I know this is a Jeep, but lets keep the off roadin to a minimum." It was great. Nonetheless I passes by three points (73) and got my license. I think considering it was raining, early, and I was driving a standard stick shift, he went a little easier on me. I parallel parked for the first time ever and passed, and I'd only been told how to do it once.

The day I got my license I drove from my house in Webb to Grove, Oklahoma to see my grandma. Then the next day went to my cousin's house in Seneca and to my brother's in Pittsburg. I had Thanksgiving at my cousin's house, and it was pretty damn good. Then again, all food to me is godly. I think if I was granted one superpower it would be the ability to summon any type of food right in front of me, and it would be perfectly cooked or made or processed or whatever. On Friday my sister and her boyfriend, Dan, drove my brother and I up to Derby, Kansas with them to see our dad for Thanksgiving. Lori prepared some good smoked turkey, and my bro and I both agree it was better than the turkey our grandma's had made us.

After going back to Pittsburg my brother and I came back to my house and here we are; it's his turn on the Xbox playing Call of Duty 4, and I'm writing about my life and how getting a new phone and a driver license is the most exciting thing that will happen in my life until I get a job, which will be soon now that I'm driving. Well, I'm going to go now.

Have a good time doing...whatever it is you do when you get done reading this,
