A Surprise

I was reading an article today about women drivers. The article stated that contrary to popular belief, most women are better drivers than men. I was quite surprised by this statement. I have spent most of my life believing the opposite. After living through many of my own experiences, I thought that girls were bad drivers. Surprisingly, according to the numbers women are safer drivers than men.

I was also unaware that in many cases, car insurance for women is cheaper. There are companies that actually seek out women drivers in order to get the lowest rates. I always say that the numbers don’t lie and I guess I’ll have to change my opinion. There are also other ways for to obtain cheap car insurance for women. By taking advantage of discounts and enrolling in driver education courses, women can get insurance that is very affordable.

I guess the battle between the sexes will go on for awhile longer, but I am certainly disheartened to find that men are on the bottom end of this deal. I will be glad to know that at least my wife will be able to afford the coverage she needs while driving around. I guess the insurance companies haven’t seen her driving yet!

Colt Ford

This is hands down the best version of this song. Don’t get me wrong, I like Jason Aldean as well, but Colt definitely did this song much better. It personifies the country lifestyle where I am from, to a T! There isn’t a “good ole’ boy” alive that can’t identify with it. Listen closely, and you will see what I mean.

Christmas party

I went to a Christmas party last night with my old friends here. It was amazing. I met a really cool chick, but unfortunately we wont see each other again as she is going out of the country to study in the UK. That is too bad. I haven’t met a chick that cool in a long time. We have decided to keep in touch though, through Facebook and email. That way whenever she does come back, we can get together and hang out.

The guys hadn’t changed that much over the last few months. Only one of them had anything different going on in his life. He got engaged and will be getting married next summer. He asked me to stand up for him in the wedding and of course I said yes. I wasn’t very surprised about that, since him and his girl have been together forever. They were high school sweet hearts and I doubt they will  ever change. I wish them the best of luck !

Anyway, I have to go and finish up the last minute shopping that needs to be done. I only have a few more things to buy, and mom has asked me to pick up a couple of things for her as well. I don’t want to be doing this on Christmas eve, because the stores are already packed and by then they will be a mad house. So, I will catch you on the flip side. Have a Great Holiday!

Holidays

I can’t wait to go home to see the family for the holidays. I am leaving early from school, so I can do my shopping and be able to get it all done in time. I have to wait to do it there, because taking it all on the plane would cost too much and I don’t want to have to mail it to myself there. It is just easier to shop after I get home.

I am lucky in that I already know what I want to buy for my family. They are relatively easy to shop for anyway. For my nieces and nephews, I will just go hit up Toys R Us with my sister and let her pick out what they like. There will be jewelry for my mom and sister and my dad is simple to shop for. I just get him whatever new gadgety tool that is out on the market and he is happy. Makes for an easy shopping trip. Yay for me!

Too Cool to be a Cop Car!

This is way too cool to be a cop car. I cannot believe they have these. The police where I live don’t have any cars this awesome. This had to come from confiscated cars or something like that. There is no way that the police department would spend this kind of money on a car like this for their cops. I like it though.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday

I know that a lot of people go out for Black Friday, but the crowds are mean and unruly, so I keep myself at home. I don’t care how good a deal there is. I can get the same deal on Cyber Monday and never have to leave the comfort of my home. What ever I buy is delivered to my door and there is no worries about mob mentality that goes on in the stores.

This year I ordered quite a few Christmas presents on cyber Monday and got better deals than if I had gone shopping in brick and mortar stores. My moms is going to be amazingly happy by the jewelry I bought for her, and my dad will be surprised as well when he opens this particular tool he has been going on about. I cannot wait till Christmas gets here and I can watch the family open their gifts.

Music

People say that money makes the world go round, but I don’t believe that. I think music makes the world go round. Music is in each of us in some way or another. Some of us just listen to it  and some of us make it, but it touches us all in some way or another. If you play and old song, most people will tell you what they were doing or what was happening in their life at that time when the song came out. I am no different. I can hear a song and automatically it triggers memories of days gone by. So embrace the music and let it guide your memories.

Woot

I won my match last night and I am stoked. My coach is happy as well, because we all won our individual matches and took the whole tournament. We are looking great for this season and have a really good chance at the finals. I would love to bring home a championship this year. We came so close last year, but were unable to pull the last couple of matches off. I am going to keep my fingers crossed and work extra hard. Time to hit the books though, talk to you people later.

Ugh

I normally don’t write about politics, but these election campaigns are on my last nerve. I cannot understand why they insist on running smear campaigns against each other. Don’t they realize that people really don’t want to see that kind of stuff? People want to hear about the issues, not about one candidate blaming the other for one thing after another, or putting them down for lifestyle etcetera. I cannot wait until this is over already.

Bought my costume

I am not going to fancy it up this year. I got a regular costume from the store and that is all I am doing. Most years I try to do something original and go all out, but I just don’t seem to have the enthusiasm for it this year. I want to have fun, but I am really just kind of blah about it. I guess life just has me down a bit right now. I am sure that I will snap out of it soon though. At least, I hope I do.
