An IM conversation with Mom

TTQ: I want a Vespa for here in town

MissE: No way. No more accidents.

TTQ: How did I know you were going to say that? I didn't even run it by Honey, he would have shot it down right away

MissE: We will protect you from yourself.

You see more accidents on those things than on motorcycles. Why not just get a rickshaw and someone to pedal?

Vespa's are the coolest things EVER! Have you ever been to Italy? They all drive them and it makes me so jealous of their free-spirited lifestyle ... darn Italians with their fancy shoes and cute little motorcycles.

I've always wanted one, but ::sigh:: it doesn't seem realistic.

that is pretty much how FP and my fam deals with me. i was just saying i wanted tor ide my bike (non-motorized) over the intracoastal bridge and it was met with a resounding NO all around.

sorry to read you've been so sick with migraines -- that sucks. migraines are the worst. i've been sick with the end of school and haven't had any fun blog time. hope you're feeling better by now!!

Stucco- I know a guy in Ft. Laud who has a whole fleet it is a fun way to get around.

Sarah- Yeah I've been to Italy and seen those well dressed Italians zipping around on Vespa's

Soapy, Soapy.. I could ride the Vespa blindfolded with a chainsaw. That's be pretty slick huh? Like a ninja or something, or maybe just a paint ball gun slung over my back.

Steph, Ha ha you get the veto factor too. I wish I could say they were wrong, but my track record is kinda messed up. Ok well a lot.

Cyd if you are reading this what do you think about it?

I was just showing my scars and describing my 15 stitches to son number 2. Of course, I was only 15 years old and maybe you have better judgement :-) Just stay away from the intersection of US 1 and Dixon Blvd.

But seriously, it can't be a whole lot worse than the civic or whatever it is you have.

TTQ said...

US 1 and Dixon is now the fringe of the "hood". I rarely even pass it.

It's a Toyota and the only thing I've ever put into it was gas and new tires. Just because the security system is kinda unconventional...

I also got vetoed on a convertible, looks like the only options is to get a Hummer or a Tank.

Mr. Farmer won't let me drive after I take my meds these days ... and I do drive a Tank! ... sorta sucks.
