Did you know I hate the heat of August?

Did you know I was happy when I moved south because I hated the cold of January?

Did you know that I have been late for work every day this week. Only a minute or two, but late none the less? It's been a rough week.

Did you know that I wish I was sitting in a starbucks right now, sipping a cup, reading my book?

Did you know I have more work to do than I could possible tackle in the next two days?

Did you know that my kid sister is staying with me for the week?

Did you know that I can't function today, I should go back home and go back to sleep....although that won't happen.

Did you know that I could not get DD into preschool this year? Did you know that we are just over the income limit for public FREE preschool, but dangit, I just can't afford to send her to private preschool at almost $400 per month? Should be illegal, I'll tell ya.

Did you know I decided to put her in gymnasitcs this year and maybe an evening playgroup? I guess I'll just do what I can for now.

Did you also know that I just remembered that it's Thursday and that it's "Water Day"?

LOL, that means that the hotty water boy will be here replacing my water cooler jugs. It's all very reminiscent of that scene in Grey's Anatomy where the three girls are watching the guy who just came in from surfing. Me, my sister and my co-worker gal stand here at my desk, pretending to discuss something very important....

Did you know that in California it is illegal now for someone under the age of 21 to drive in their car with someone else who is under 21 if the other person has been drinking?

Ok, that may be the dumbest thing I have ever heard. While on one hand it might deter teenagers from drinking because then they won't have a ride home and their friends won't be responsible for them if they get pulled over (the driver and all in the car get cited), but to me it would just make them drive themselves so they are only responsible for themselves.....unfortunatley, that's how other get killed.

Now, when I was under 21, I was always the Designated Driver for my friends. In fact, on more than one occasion, law enforcement gave me a curfew pass and my inebriated friends a pass because they were smart enough to get a Designated Driver. As long as no one was driving drunk, they were usually pretty easy going.

Kids are going to drink, the trick is for them to not kill themselves or others in the process.

Did you know ~ someone with a license should be commended driving an intoxicated passenger at any age?
Better than the No Sober No Ride Home plan. How many lives lost to this extended Just Say No plan will it take...

escapee, no i didn't know that. i'll have to check this out. i've always thought it was great that college students "always" have a designated driver.

eta: just yesterday i was thinking about the problems with drinking and driving and a possible solution.

Did you know I think it's new and I only learned this because neighbor boy is 17 and as he was leaving his mom said that he couldn't drive any of his drunk friends home because of the new law....

Did ya know I had no clue about the new law. There seems to be more and more restrictions on kids and driving these days and really I'm not sure all of them are good. Some kids are gonna drink no matter how much we wish they wouldn't and I'd rather see one of their friends take the role of DD than worrying about who's under 21!

Did ya know that gas prices here have fallen yet again? I did not realize how much ($2.89) until tonight. Earlier this summer I was putting around $60 when I was sitting on empty. Tonight it was $43!

Since he's only 17, if he's had his license for less than 12 months he wouldn't be allowed to drive with kids in the car whether they were drunk or not, unless they have someone over 25 in the car. I haven't been able to find anything about not being able to transport drunk passengers if the driver has had his license for more than a year. Do you know when this law went into effect?

did you know i couldn't find anything about the new law escapee mentioned (doesn't mean it's not true obviously). i did find this:

A new Californian law has come into effect at the turn of the new year, placing teen driver's under curfew. Teens who have held their licence for less than a year are not allowed to drive between 11pm and 5am, according to the law.

Also, they are only able to drive with young passengers in the car if an adult is also present. The law was passed after it was found that inexperienced teen drivers were more at risk during the nighttime hours.

------------------
even if there is such a new law...a teen could just say "i didn't know they were drinking, my friends always act goofy...how could i tell the difference" lol

He's almost 18, and he's been driving for almost 2 years now. I asked her why he couldn't drive his friends home if they had been drinking, because that seems like the thing to do, and she said that a new law has been passed that states that no one can drive anyone under 21 who has been drinking. If they are pulled over and there are people in the car who are under 21 who have been drinking, the driver and all passengers will be cited.

Did you know Irishtxgrl I think if it is in fact a law, then it's the dumbest.
