Operation Drive 2

Ever since I told BB that I plan to drive to work, he has been going around with a martyred look on his face which is intensified x2 whenever he looks at the car. Given my past history with vehicles I don't blame him. No, I have not been in any accidents or anything like that, its just that I have classic female problem when it comes to directions, judgement and speed ... and he imagines the worst. 

That said I intend to change history... rather rewrite my history so to speak and I will never get a better opportunity than now as the sole person in the house who has the licence and the will to drive. Also BB has only himself to blame for my new found resolve, the below exchange which took place last week has me determined to start driving, read on and see for yourself.

The other day we met a few friends and one of them goaded BB to let me drive the car.

Y said, "Come on BB, let her drive the car, pohoch jaayega yaar tu".

BB snorts, 'Yeah, pohoch jaayega, Powai Lake mein milega'. (we work in Powai in the vicinity of the lake).

X who was also part of this group, agreed with BB and rolled her eyes while pointing skyward indicating, "yeah, pohoch jayega... UPAR'.

A message to ya all, I shall drive... PERIOD.
