Stop Signs

So I just got an email from a friend who was telling me about how she got lost b/c of a 'no left turn' stop sign. Sounds perfectly normal, right? Well maybe to you, but to me this is a totally foreign concept which is weird seeing as how I'm not foreign!!

My first reaction was '..hmm, a stop sign. Now that's a novel concept. Yah, they do have those in the states.' My next reaction was 'Why didn't she just turn left? It's not like signs mean anything. No one follows them anyways' Then I started to get a little worked up and thought 'Who are 'they' to tell her that she can't drive a certain way...it's a road isn't it? It's not like she was wanted to drive on the sidewalk, although there's nothing wrong with driving on the sidewalk. Sometimes there are too many people in the road and you gotta do what you gotta do.' I mean, come on Steph...did you not learn anything when you were living in the Sandbox?!?!?

I'm not gonna lie, I'm going to need some serious guidance when I return to the states. And for those of you who might be spending some time with me when I get there...it might be best if you drive!

Hahahahahahaha! Maybe there's a reason I got in a fender-bender the first two weeks I was back :-) Yeah, driving laws are a pain! Much love!!
