step on a crack....

.....and you'll break your mom's back!

Or if you are a complete idiot like me, you'll break your own! I had on some cute high heeled boots today and while walking outside, my heel got stuck in a crack!! Luckily I was able to catch my balance and not completely eat cement. Being married to Travis has definitely helped my balance and reflexes. I don't fall on the snow anymore and biff it. He's taught me how to catch myself and remain balanced.

Also... my car was sliding a little bit today when I turned onto another road and instead of panicking, I pulled the e-brake and a cool maneuver in order to not slide into oncoming cars. My car straightened out and I was fine! Two years ago I might have pulled over and cried. Not anymore! I guess going into parking lots and having Travis drive around like mad man... drifting, sliding, donuts...etc actually helped! I'm becoming desensitized to the scary-ness and I don't get freaked out as much. Travis still likes to do that now and then... I'm still not a huge fan of it and it sort of makes me sick. He swears it will help me in my own driving (when he teaches me what to do... not when he's showing off). To be honest, I AM glad I know what to do!

While I'm at it... I might as well just give a shout out to SUBARU POWER!!! I love having all wheel drive. Makes a world of difference! That being said... I still think there needs to be more snow plows in Utah County. There just aren't enough.
