Do women take the backseat to men? I actually reflected to the Snook on the weekend how much I appreciate the fact that I get to do all the driving in the relationship. Which is kind of a weird observation in and of itself, because he’s not really giving up any task he wanted to do anyway. From my perspective, I’m thinking about particular women I knew back in Indiana who never drove and wouldn’t even pump their own gas. From the Snook’s perspective, he just really hates to drive and I’ve got a lot more experience with it. So we both get what we want, really.

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.

The Boy does all the driving when we’re together. That mostly stems from him having a bad car accident (two broken legs) when he was a passenger in a taxi and being incredibly nervous when anyone else drives but him. I’m happy to let him do it. I do like driving, but not enough to make a fuss about it.
Meh. I don’t really like driving. If someone else wants to take the wheel, that’s fine by me.
I prefer not driving. Because you can’t knit and drive at the same time!
