Journal 31 - Daydreaming

There once was a boy who was stuck in a sticky situation. He was in deep doo doo with his mother because he drove to school when it was all snowy outside and the mother thought that it was just too snowy outside to drive. The young gentleman just got a new 2004 Chevy Malibu that was way too nice for a young sixteen year old to be driving. This must have made the mother very scared indeed. She just bought her son this new car and she did not believe it was the time to learn how to drive a car - in the snow. She also drove a tiny Chevy Aveo that ways about as much as a wagon, so the poor mother's view was biased because that Aveo got thrown around like the pigskin on Thanksgiving. So the young and "foolish" (according to the boy's mother) decided that he would drive to school. So he did.The roads were not in the greatest conditions but he got to school without a scratch on his car. While he was at school he saw his lovely girlfriend who asked for a ride home. The boy being no fool gave his girlfriend a ride home. When he got to his girlfriends house he looked at his phone and the boy had received a text message from his mother that told him he should have called her and he was not going to be able to drive the car until he got back from his ski trip in Wisconsin. So the boy sat down and pondered. He began to day dreams the things that boys usually day dream about, which is how to get out of the situations they always put themselves in. So he came up with a great idea. He would tell his mother he did not get up early enough to take the bus (even though he did with plenty of time to spare) and he had no other option but to ride in his car. So the young boy drove the long, fifteen minute drive from the girlfriend's house to his; through the treacherous roads, and maybe even through the seven levels of the candy cane forest. He did not know for he could not see anything. But eventually the boy got home and told his mother the story. The mother bought the story and he got off with the simple warning of "tell me next time you have to drive." The boy got off scot free and with no harm done towards himself. And as every other good story ends - he got the girl.
