sugar & spice

♘ for @marykatehood right here!

Should try driving faster? Sure, I’ll give it a go. I mean, I’m not exactly a speed-limit abiding citizen here in the first place, but I’m not up to your standards and how disappointing is that?

Driving faster is always more fun, and a bit of a rush when you see that speedometer hit triple digits. I usually only go that fast when I know nobody’s on the road though, just in case.

Stand? Its a treat! Maybe you need to grow up thinking it’s a treat but I do, I very much do. And warm coke has healed every single one of my tummy aches so I’m pretty sure it does something right. And Dr. Pepper tastes like garbage all of the time, that doesn’t count! YOU GUYS HAVE A COLA VOLCANO? I wanna see it! I wanna taste it!

Yeah, not much is a treat when there’s candy everywhere, not gonna lie. I think I would have died if I didn’t have like constant access to sugar as a kid as bad as that sounds. I don’t mind Dr. Pepper sometimes, but I’m more of a Pepsi kinda girl. But yeah, we do. I think it’s dormant right now but my mom said that it was active when she was a kid. It’s one of her favorite spots in the country.

Oh wow, no need to blast former driving teachers, I’ve never tried! I’ve driven in a parking lot with my dad in the passenger seat but I mean, everyone’s done that; other than that though I’m very new to this. But fine, I’m down if you’re down, as long as driving irl is nothing like GTA. Any of the GTAs.

Really? None of it? Not even a little bit? Because drifting is a ton of fun, you’ll love it, just trust me on that. I guess that will just have to wait, such a bummer. Granny driving it is, then. I’m still down though, even if you’re making me stick to the speed limit.

Hm, now that I think about it, I could see you pulling it off. Some glasses, put your hair up– you’d be getting into hot librarian territory but librarians and professors have the same kinda look. I mean, you were the one who wanted to see the pics. But, I’m also not opposed to getting a cute girl’s number.

People love a hot librarian, though. I wouldn’t necessarily see that as a bad thing. True, but I didn’t think phone, figured internet was easier for that, but I definitely don’t mind this way either. Okay, so like, how bad was it afterward though? Has anybody mentioned it since?

You want to teach me to drive? Really?! Are you sure? I’m honored and would actually love to cross ‘learning to drive’ off the bucket list but games will be way funner, I’m an overly cautious student.

Why not? Clearly someone’s not doing a good enough job, and I’ve been driving practically since I could walk. Okay, fine. But consider it training. We’re gonna need to bust out the big guns on this. GTA V.

Flat soda is so good, are you nuts? My dad actually has this home remedy for when I get tummy aches that involves warming Coke up in the microwave and it’s so good and helps every time. Cherry is good! It doesn’t taste like cherry but it tastes delicious!

I guess I am because I’m still trying to figure out how you can stand flat soda. Especially if it’s like Dr. Pepper because that just tastes like straight up prune juice. Seriously, though? Coke to cure tummy aches? That’s a new one, I’ve never heard that. And we have a cola volcano back home. See, you can never go wrong with cherry. And it tastes alright mixed with the Coke Icees.

I know that but like dude its more work. Should have picked something way easier. I don’t know that doesn’t seem as much fun as the commercial does. Like they have these small bodies and helium filled heads just floating around and bumping into one another. That seems more fun. Also I doubt it would hurt if they are like super light to float like that.

Psych is supposed to be easy! At least I thought it was. I thought all you did was sit around and discuss thoughts and theories. Ugh, well you never said anything about it not hurting, so lame. Not your fault if people aren’t smart enough to figure that ramming their heads into each other would hurt like hell. I say let them learn the hard way in that case. Why not ask one of the science geeks to help you with the ballooning of heads, then?

My day is ruined so hard now. Guess I’ll just have to go party away the pain now, thanks for that. Sounds kind of like you’re just racing against no one in that kind of situation. Or like, one of those ghost bot things that people queue up to go against on videogames. 

You’re welcome for saving you from being boring. Or could be that I’m just enjoying my ride. I just like to drive fast, doesn’t always equal racing. Maybe you should give it a try sometime.

Turtle: Is it just me or does Double Dash get harder when you play it in the middle of the night?

Oh God, am I giving off No Fun Energy? Shit, that’s it, time to drop out of school and go do something else with my life, somewhere where no one’s ever accused me of missing out. I love driving. You’re like, into racing, though, right? I’m more of a ‘open road, hair blowing in the wind, screaming songs about freedom at the top of my lungs’ driver instead.

Oh, yeah. Big time No Fun Energy. Yeah, I’m into racing, but that doesn’t mean all I do is race. I’ve been known to just drive aimlessly. At somewhat reckless speeds, but still aimlessly.

Would you believe me if I said I didn’t even think about Crownflix and Chill? Because shit, if I’d thought about it, you’d obviously be the first person I’d text. We still have plenty of time to make up for that though. I was at home for it though too, not sure if you’d have wanted to come all the way to Tangletown. What movies did you watch? Anything good? 

Would you believe it if I could? It wasn’t exactly my priority over break. Guess being around the family has that effect, huh? Are you kidding me? You’d literally be giving me an excuse to drive, when would I ever complain about that? And nothing really exciting, old cheesy movies like Smoky and the Bandit, stuff like that.

Well, whatever you wish is my command. My abs are available for ogling both in first person or via Digital Get Down.

I definitely like the direction that took. And I’ve always been more of a hands-on kind of girl, do with that what you will.
