Are we all dead yet?
Took the kid out for her very first driving practice yesterday. Luckily there's a huge Park and Ride parking lot nearby and on the weekends there's not a lot of people there taking the bus. So, we did it for about half an hour just getting her used to how the vehicle handles, steering, brakes, accelerator. She did okay considering it was her very first time behind the wheel. I don't think we topped 10 mph the whole time though. But I think it will be several more parking lot lessons before she will be ready to actually get out on the road. And when we do that, I'm going to have to get her outside of the city where there is far less traffic before I throw her into the mess that is Denver metro traffic.

My first time, my Dad was the calm and silent teacher. He said once, "It's ok to take your foot off the brake and give it a little gas." We drove a few laps around our neighborhood block. He told me I was a natural.
This is the same man that grabbed my brother by the throat and lifted him up in the air with one hand for stealing a cigarette from him. My brother was 16 at the time and weighed close to 160 lbs.

But everyone on the news says that we are all gonna die from the Flu Manchu if the country re-opens, which has slowly been starting.
I tried to keep my cool because she's already scared/nervous enough about learning to drive. I know that getting upset with her wouldn't do either of us any good. And even though we were in a VERY large parking lot, there were still some close calls with some curbs and a light pole.
