Our cabin isn't in the woods, it's on my boyfriend's dad's property and catches a lot more wind here ;-)
It's the flu season and many people are sick here, so I guess it was coming. For now, we mostly had the cold.
Yeah, I never really wanted to get my drivers licence at all. I was fine with my bike and public transport. But then, my job turned south and I wanted a way out. Many jobs require you to have your drivers licence, atleast if you want enough chances in IT, that's what you should get. So I got my licence for that and for a few months, it was handy to drive to my boyfriend when we lived apart. We moved in together really fast though, so now, I hardly ever need to drive. The reason I still do from time to time is to make sure I don't get too nervous if there's ever a moment where I don't have a choice. It's still pretty scary for me.
It can be also quite cold in our flat because the windows are leaking and we don't want to turn on the heating much. When I was studying for the degree exams, I put on my penguin pajamas in the morning, which could perfectly replace the blanket and take it off before bedtime. Although going to the toilet is unpleasant, because it is a bodysuit, but it keeps me warm :)
My parents have just forced me to do it. It's part of the general education, they said and that it'll fit into the CV. Well if I don't drive it is like I never got a driving license. I would only have to arrange some more lessons because I wouldn't come to a normal car. The instructor in the driving school can still intervene when you do something bad, but there is nothing like that in a normal car. Your co-driver can get the steering wheel only. So until someone tells me I must drive, I won't sit behind the steering wheel again.
A penguin pajamas? That sounds too cute! I can imagine it being annoying for the toilet though. Thinking about our toilet being in the coldest room of the cabin, I think I'll stay away from bodysuits for now :-)
Yeah, getting a drivers licence is a pretty standard thing to do once you're old enough. I skipped on getting one for about 10 years before my fear got outweight by my lack of pleasure at my job.
I think if your situation ever changes and you find yourself having to drive every week, it'll be nice that you already have the licence. You would indeed have to get a few lessons to refresh your memory though and to regain your confidence, but atleast that will be faster than having to get your licence.
It looks like this:
I just don't have penguin feet, but on the other side, I can hide my hands in the wings. The material is similar to a soft blanket, so I don't use it as pajamas because it would be too warm. There's a zip on the back so you can go to the toilet and don't have to take it off, but it's not too comfortable.
I hope I don't have to when I listen to my boyfriend's stories about assholes on the road, how he avoided collision etc.
Aww it's so awesome and it looks so comfy! I think my boyfriend would love to see me in one of those!
Yeah, we sometimes notice morons on the roads aswell, though usually everything is fine. Most are just annoying, not necessarily dangerous.
