Hello again, Oppo. It’s been a busy summertime. The good to come out of that is I am finally a driver! No, I don’t have a vehicle of my own (yet). I’ve only been out three times, so barely a driver yet, but of happenings. School begins on August 28th this year (boo!), and I’m supposed to get my wisdom teeth out on the 23rd (also boo!). In the meantime, my job ended last week, so I have a bit more free time than in July. I’m still running XC in the fall, and summer practice takes a lot out of me, but I can’t wait to see how that pans out! How’s the Oppo community been?

I was about to say, get your hand off of the top of the damn wheel, but since this is not you, I will let it slide.

Things are decent. Moved. Pretty happy.

Word of advice for wisdom teeth: milkshakes and painkillers are your best friends for the week.

It’s an 88-91 Civic/CRX, no airbag.

Edit: Maaybe Accord/Integra, but still no SRS.

Welcome to the start of something beautiful! Don’t believe anyone who says any car sucks... anything with a motor is a conduit to driving bliss. Man and machine is a spiritual connection. Well, not electrics. Those are for hauling bundles of sticks. But you get my point. Congrats!!

A. Both hands offer better control.

B. Refer to A, especially as a new driver.

Are yours above the surface or impacted? Mine were above the surface and not impacted so I was not put under for it. They just pulled them like regular teeth. But yes to smoothies, milkshakes and yogurt
