Lack of Flexibility

Ok, so the perks of driving to work with your sibling is that you get to share the costs of travel. You get someone to yak with during the long drive to work and all.

But the downside of it (which I discovered today) is that I can't say yes to spontaneous invitations to dinners and movies.

Dang, spontaneity is not my middle name anymore.

Not during weekdays, that is.

Bleh.

*This is what i sometimes do.
Give car to sibling.
Go out for spontaneous dinner (ensure members of opposite sex are there)
After dinner, *smile smile*, wink wink and show off my hairy leg, and proceed to ask for a ride home.
Works everytime (in my dreams)

*Now THAT's one of the best ideas I've heard all day...

But that can only work when he's driving his own car. He doesn't drive automatics.

Still... scheming smile

*What!!?! He doesn't drive an auto? erhem.. well.. time to learn man...

Doc, you're so smart.. did you come up with this idea or learn it from some arcane book?

The "hairy-leg" part is not so .. well.. you know.. appealing.. ha ha ha...

How about rehearsals CC? how you gonna do that? You know you can call on favour from anyone of us to send you back. :-).. "I know where you live" grin

*Hahaha, yalor, probably the success rate was heavily influenced by the appearance of the hairy leg.

Rehearsals are not impromptu affairs thus far, so have made arrangements for that. But will let you guys know if I am ever in distress lar ;-) Thanks!

*Leg hair is useful lar:
*Can keep legs warm in winter
*Prevent mosquito bites esp if you have a carpet on your legs
*Thus decreasing malaria and dengue fever
*For styling purposes. Can dye, straighten, curl, braid
*Good for generating static electricity
